Hi, templates can expand variables passed in like {$number_books}. Would be helpful to be able to link to a template page passing variables in a LINK, like mypage?num_books=20. This way, template can be used as is filling necessary info in a link. Say I have a page that is good for a number of stocks but has some elements that depend on a stock symbol. I can define it as a template but I need to create a separate page for each stock just to pass in symbol as a parameter. It would be nice if I can do that in a link reference directly.
