I have a strange bug where a snippet embedded within another snippet isn’t properly parsing. However this is only the case with a new snippet I just created and not the old one that was just replaced. For example:

{snippet_url}:

{if channel_id == 2}
  <a href="http://example.com/{url_title}">http://example.com/{url_title}</a>
{if:else}
  <a href="http://other.com/{url_title}">http://other.com/{url_title}</a>
{/if}

{snippet_old}:

<a href="http://{snippet_url}">Old Link</a>

{snippet_new}:

<a href="http://{snippet_url}">New Link</a>

{snippet_old} Output:

<a href="http://example.com/my-url-title">Old Link</a>

{snippet_new} Output:

<a href="http://{snippet_url}">New Link</a>

Thats the gist of what’s happening. I’m frankly confused, although I haven’t tried to much debugging hoping you can point to some known issue. Although I doubt it does the order of creating matter, i.e. creation order was {snippet_old}, {snippet_url}, {snippet_new}?

Hi blg002,

Embedding snippets is not possible. If it is working at all for you that is unexpected. If you need to embed you’ll need to do that with a template.

Is there anything else I can assist you with?

Ah, good to know. Wonder why it’s working with the “old” case. Thats all the help I needed, thanks.

blg002,

I’m going to close out this thread, but feel free to post again when you have more questions.
