What do you think the best solution would be to place a php variable inside of an exp tag?

I have been trying many ways with no luck… which is making me re-think the site map.

I’m building a site that has multiple weblogs for each department of a business. I would have used categories but many people within each department need to access their department weblog and I couldn’t find a way to allow members to view entries based on categories within the cp… so I opted to give each department it’s own weblog.

I am currently getting hung up on the template that displays each entry individually. I am using custom weblog fields, and since I’m also using the Multi-Relationship plugin… I need to give each weblog it’s own weblog field with a unique name. The unique name is the variable that I am having trouble with. It will print out correctly on the page, it just won’t work within a tag.

Has anyone had a similar situation and know of a solution?

I do know that if you go to edit, then filter by weblog, that should dynamically change the filter by category (based on your choice of weblog). So you should be able to view entries based on categories right out of the box.

I’m concerned with leaving it up to the user because departments could accidentally edit each other’s entries.
