Question

The PatternSkin templates include this code:

%TMPL:DEF{"breadcrumb"}%%{"breadcrumb:title"}%%TMPL:P{"breadcrumb:wikitoolname"}%%TMPL:P{"breadcrumb:currentweb"}%%META{"parent" nowebhome="on" prefix="%TMPL:P{"breadcrumb:separator"}%" suffix=""}%%TMPL:P{"breadcrumb:currenttopic"}%%TMPL:END%

which displays the breadcrumb trail.

I'd like to space out the parents of the trail, which I've tried by changing the meta search to

%META{"parent" nowebhome="on" prefix="%TMPL:P{"breadcrumb:separator"}%" suffix="" format="[[$web.$topic][%SPACEOUT{$topic}%]]"}%

However, when I execute this, the parent topic is not spaced out, as gets sent "$topic" and not the topic name. I'm not able to work out how to change the evaluation precedence so SPACEOUT evaluates after $topic is filled in.

How do I space out the parent topics?

Filed this as a bug.

The format needed to be changed to escape the SPACEOUT with $percnt, so $percntSPACEOUT{$topic}$percnt .
