    I’m sure that this has been asked before, but I couldn’t find any references to it…

    Is it possible to use EE tags within weblog entries?

    I’m using the ‘pages’ module and I’d like to display some dynamic lists within my ‘pages’ weblog entries.  I tried using EE tags and it just parses them as regular text.  Is there any way to do this?

    Thanks,

    There’s the Allow EE Code plugin.

    Cool. Never used it myself as I prefer to keep content, code, and presentation completely separate.

    Amen to that. I have an older site with embedded EE code in content (back from the days when it was not a feature but worked anyway). FWIW, it works very well even embedded inside content. It’s easy enough to change the {embed} using search and replace.

    Still, for long term cleanliness, it’s usually better to keep content and code separate.

    Maybe this can solve my old problem - dynamically linking to an entry from within another entry.

    It should be possible to show only one entry and then doing a href=”{url_tite}”... Should it not?
