NAME

RTFM::Extension::ArticleTemplates - turns articles into dynamic templates.

DESCRIPTION

This extension works with RT 3.8 and RTFM. If you are using RT 4.0 please see RT::Extension::ArticleTemplates.

When this extension is installed RTFM parses content of articles as a template using Text::Template module. Using this extension you can make your articles dynamic. Text::Template module is used to parse RT's Templates as well and its syntax is pretty simple - you can consult RT docs/wiki or module's documentation.

VERY IMPORTANT

It's a SECURITY RISK to install this extension on systems where articles can be changed by not trusted users. You're warned!

Your articles may contain some text that looks like a template and will be parsed after installation when it's actually is not valid template.
