Hi,
The COMMON_PAGE_FROMTEMPLATE event currently wraps around the pattern
replacements for namespace templates. The BEFORE hook let's you change
the content of the template, but that happens after looking for the
template it self. This makes replacing the whole template logic by
something else not impossible but inefficient.
I'd like to have an event that makes it possible to do three things:
* prevent the lookup of page templates
* load your own page template text
* prevent or allow pattern replacements on the loaded template text
There are two methods I could imagine
1) use two events. keep the current event as is and wrap a second
event around the template loadin process
2) modify the current event to not wrap around the replacement logic
but around the template loading process and have it set an event data
option that controls if the output should be parsed
According to the survey [1] the COMMON_PAGE_FROMTEMPLATE is not used
by any plugins currently, but it's predecessor HTML_PAGE_FROMTEMPLATE
is.
What do you guys think? Which approach is the better choice?
Andi
