{whoAmI} Macro

[Keola Donaghy]

OK, I think you mean that you have it in your members box template in
Prefs -> Advanced, correct? I just tried it on my site and it doesn't work
there, either. You need to put it into the homepage template. As I
mentioned in a previous, some macros are restricted to certain templates,
and though it's not documented on the basic macros site, it appears that
{whoAmI}  may be restricted to the home page template and template
documents, not in the join and logout member boxes. That may be
intentional or something that Userland might want to change. It makes
sense to me that it should be accessible from the membership templates.

HTH,

Keola
