This is one tricky add-on! I’ve installed the allow_eecode plugin and I have been able to successfully embed a Freeform template, but I haven’t been able to successfully embed a template that has an exp:channel:entries tag in it.  Is it not possible to do this? Or am I missing some very subtle thing that needs to be changed somewhere?

Here’s my template with the allow_eecode in it:

{exp:channel:entries channel="{channel}" disable="pagination" status="open" limit="1" url_title="{segment_3}}
    
    ...stuff…
    
    {if activity_content_05 != ""}
    <div id="activity-content-05">
        {exp:allow_eecode embed="y"}{activity_content_05}{/exp:allow_eecode}
    </div>
    {/if}
{/exp:channel:entries}

And here’s what I have in the channel entry for the “activity_content_05” textarea:

{embed="includes/bug_err"}

And here’s the bug_err template code:

<div class="bug">
    <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
      <caption>
        ERRs
      </caption>
      <tr>
        <th scope="col" width="50%">Country Program</th>
        <th scope="col" width="50%">ERR File</th>
      </tr>
    {exp:channel:entries channel="err"}  
      <tr>
        <td width="50%">Country Program</td>
        <td width="50%"><a href="http://{err_file}">{title}</a></td>
      </tr>
    {/exp:channel:entries}  
    </table>
</div>

Everything above the exp:channel:entries tag displays just fine in the rendered page.

Any help would be fantastic!

Hi Brettro,

On the bug_err template, try adding dynamic=“no” to the channel entries tag.  If there’s no change I’d suggest simplifying things for debugging. Get a single exp:channel:entries tag working inside the eecode tags and work incrementally from there.

Yep, that absolutely worked.  I can’t believe I didn’t think to try that before posting.  Thank you, thank you for the suggestion!

Glad to see Brandon was able to help. Please post again as needed.
