Hi. I'm running SMW 1.8 bundle on MW 1.19.3. I'm seeing very weird behaviour on a form and template. If I have in my form: ! Caller ID |{{{field|Caller ID}}} In my template: ! Caller ID | [[Caller ID::{{{Caller ID|}}}]] When the form is saved you see this on the page: [[Caller ID::Mitchell_Neill,1]] and the Caller ID page property is not set. If I change to: ! Caller ID |{{{field|Caller}}} ! Caller ID | [[Caller::{{{Caller|}}}]] Then it works fine. You just see the field content Mitchell_Neill,1 and the property gets set. Have I stumbled across a reserved word i.e. "Caller ID" in SMW/SF?
It not reserved
Okay, so we need to work out why this is not working. I can see nothing wrong with the syntax. If it is broken for my basic example, it is very likely it is broken for others.
I think this is related to bug 44104. The Caller ID is passed in via a formlink query string parameter. If the query string parameter is enclosed in a {{#urlencode: }} then it works. So I think that if #44104 is fixed then this will go away. I will close for now as I believe it is what is being passed by the formlink to the field that is at fault, not the field itself.
I think you are right. My example is (sorry, forgot to post it in this bug! Noob) {{#formlink:form=Book Entry|link text=Add a Book|link type=button|query string=Book[Title]={{PAGENAME}}}} with this in the form ! Book Title |{{{field|Title}}} and I was seeing the same problem - this was showing in the saved field [[Title::Hydrogen Sonata, Iain M. Banks]] I tried the suggested urlencode trick (after being advised to install the string functions extension first!) {{#formlink:form=Book Entry|link text=Add a Book|link type=button|query string={{#urlencode:Book[Title]={{PAGENAME}}}}}} and it now works. So I concur, if bug 44104 is fixed then this problem would not occur.
