Re: [Tiki-users] Nested {LIST()}: accessing external object_id

Hi Alessandro and list plugin fans!

As Bernard said you can use smarty template files (or wiki pages) to do this, and that is very powerful, but you need to learn some smarty syntax and it's not so easy to debug sometimes, but there is a way to do it in wiki mark-up alone, just!

You can find a couple of examples here:

    http://doc.tiki.org/PluginList-display-control-block#Wiki_Plugin_Formatting

The trick is to use {display} with the wikiplugin format to run the inner list plugin - the syntax looks horrible but in the past i have managed to get it to work.

In the 2nd example the parent_object_id field is the thing a comment is attached to, in this case the tracker item being shown in the results.

Does that make any sense? Hope so!
