Meta Data Rendering

Various meta data can be stored in topics - MetaDataDefinition

This is rendered using the %META% variable. This is mostly used in the view, preview and edit scripts.

At present support is fairly basic:

Variable usage:	Comment:
%META{"parent"}%	Show topic parent. Options: dontrecurse="on": By default recurses up tree, this has some cost. nowebhome="on": Suppress WebHome. prefix="...": Prefix that goes before parents, but only if there are parents, default "". suffix="...": Suffix, only appears if there are parents, default "". separator="...": Separator between parents, default is " > ".
%META{"moved"}%	Details of any topic moves
%META{"form"}%	Show form data, see Form Templates
%META{"attachments"}%	Show attachments, excluding hidden ones. Options: all="on": Show all attachments i.e. including hidden ones

Possible future additions:

• Rendering of form data to alternate formats e.g. bullet lists
• Specify a template to be used for rendering
