How to use Match[persistent_variable]

Hi Luc

From: doc/changelogs/3.5/CHANGELOG-3.4.4-to-3.5.0
- Added support for the template variable 'persistent_variable', which can be
used to communicate between content templates and other templates, even
though content caching is on. It can be set for example with
{set scope=global persistent_variable=42} and fetched with
{$module_result.content_info.persistent_variable}

http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/3_9/reference/template_override_conditions
says it can be used in the override of the node/view/*.tpl

So I assume that you can site it in a template then have an override that display a different template dependant on the value. E.G.

[magic_pockets_meaningoflife]                
Source=node/view/full.tpl      
MatchFile=magic_pocket_meaningoflife.tpl     
Subdir=templates               
Match[class_identifier]=pocket 
Match[section]=34   
Match[persistent_variable]=42

[magic_pockets]                
Source=node/view/full.tpl      
MatchFile=magic_pocket.tpl     
Subdir=templates               
Match[class_identifier]=pocket 
Match[section]=34   

HTH

Hi Luc

You are setting the variable incorrectly. You'll need something like:

{set scope=global persistent_variable=42}
{node_view_gui view=line content_node=$child}

I haven't tested this just going on the docs.

Cheers
