Overview
TaxiOffice includes extensive support for the use of keywords in pages. This article explains exactly what keywords are and the keywords that are currently recognised and supported by TaxiOffice. These keywords available are nearly the same as are available for mail messages.
What are keywords?
Keywords are shortcuts to values that will automatically be filled in by TaxiOffice when generating and sending e-mail messages.
For example, the keyword $datetime$ will automatically be replaced with the current date and time.
Keywords enable operators to build pages that are versatile and automatically use the latest value of a common setting. For example, if the company's contact telephone number changes, and the keyword $contact_telephone$ has been used within pages, it will automatically show the new telephone number. If the telephone number had been manually entered, it would be necessary to edit every page where it was used.
There are a couple of basic rules when using keywords:
-
Only recognised keywords may be used (see list below)
-
Keywords begin and end with a dollar ($) sign
-
Keywords are in lowercase and contain no spaces.
Recognised Keywords
Some keyword values or ouput are taken from definable TaxiOffice settings. These values may be changed by the operator.
