form variations based on plus cards?

If I go with one cardtype (Resource) on http://democracyinnovations.wagn.org/ then the question is how to handle the slight variations.

I could use the content of "|Resource|+Resource Type" to generate an appropriate right form with the extra formatting wanted by Resoures of a particular "type". But this:

 

http://test.dwagn.org/wagn/inclusion_in_an_inclusion

 

...has problems:

  1. The inner inclusion is returning double brackets around the foo even though I specified item:name
  2. Seems like we're not recognizing the nested inclusion (perhaps something we didn't think anyone was twisted enough to try :-). Seems like we could render the inner one first, then the outer one?
 

I don't think the nested inclusion has much chance.  It assumes an inside-out process order that isn't how wagn works.

 

I think the way to go is a search.  You can refer to _self and what is referred to in a single search and append whatever you need to.  So long as you're ok with having a process where not everything is added in the initial card creation, this should work pretty smoothly for now.


Nice. Seems like it ought to work, but from http://test.dwagn.org/wagn/inclusion_in_an_inclusion (+this way) I'm guessing append doesn't accept card definitions.

hehe, nice. anyway, ticket/idea let append and prepend accept card definitions?

Sure. Fairly low pri. *may* not be that hard to implement
