Low Variables - Eliminating the Embed Tag?
So, Lee Reamsnyder, gets legendary status for all the “How I Met Your Mother” gifs, but that’s not the point of this post, unfortunately.
Lee takes the common example of needing to nest tags, where one would normally use an embed, and explains why Low Variables makes this no longer necessary.
The ability for this comes in the “preparse:my_var=” parameter Low added to Low Variables 2.3.
Lee walks through a real example of how he used this method, and even broke down the performance impacts the embed method had versus the Low Variables method.
Check out his post, and see for yourself.
