Regarding $ variables

[Migrated From Jforum.net]

Hi all,
I want to define some $ variables, which can be used in the template files similar to ${post.id}, ${post.subject} etc.

Lets call it ${post.mysubject} and let it have the same value as ${post.subject}. How to create such variables?

To define a variable in the template, use

<#assign myVar = "myValue"/>

You can't create variables using the dot notation, because Freemarker will think that that it's a call to some object's instance.
