The tags on this page may be used in any Favorez skin template. There are two kinds of tags: value tags and block tags. You are encouraged to learn more about them before using Favorez tags.

 

Value tags {TAGNAME}

Values tags are very straight forward and are similar to macros in MS Word. Value tags can have any name and are replaced by their corresponding value when a new Favorez web page is created.

 

Block tags {TPL:TAGNAME}

Block tags are more complex. Block tags must start with {TPL: and may end with any name. A block tag should always be matched by another block tag with the same name. Block tags in fact define a sub template to be parsed separately. There are two kinds of block tags. A block tag that has a name in upper case characters only like {TPL:FOLDER} can be nested. A block tag with a name in lower case characters cannot be nested.
