Keywords don't work on remote content pages

We're using the following keywords in the footer of our design:


[codebox]Last updated:

<MySource_AREA id_name="Page_Last_Updated" design_area="datetime">

<MySource_SET name="format" value="l, j F, Y g:i A" /><MySource_SET name="datetime" value="updated" /></MySource_AREA>



by <a href="mailto:%asset_created_by_email%">%asset_created_by_name%</a><br/>



Page ID: %asset_assetid%[/codebox]



Works a treat for all standard pages :slight_smile:



However on our remote content pages the %asset_assetid%, %asset_created_by_name% and %asset_created_by_email% keywords don't work.



Any ideas on how we could handle the footer for these pages?



Thanks

Interesting. I didn't think keywords worked at all in Designs. :slight_smile:

The keywords should not work differently for different types of pages. Those particular keywords are common to all assets.


But just to try something, can you put "globals" in front of them to see if those work. Eg. %globals_asset_created_by_name%

Aaah... of course I should be looking at design variables which has worked for the asset id:
<MySource_PRINT id_name="__global__" var="assetid" />

But what about created by name and email? Is it possible to print them using a design tag?

globals worked! Thanks Greg :)
