Support for Array Variable

[felixcheruiyot]

I'd like to loop through a list of items and display it in a table. Something like this:

<table>
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th>#</th>
      <th>Name</th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
   {% for item in items %}
    <tr>
      <td>{{item.id}}</td>
      <td>{{item.name}}</td>
    </tr>
    {% endfor %}
  </tbody>
</table>

How can I implement such? It might also be good to see how one can extend the plugin.

These kinds of features will have us end up trying to build a complete WYSIWYG for template languages. Some pitfalls to trying to create a WYSIWYG editor for a template language (Twig) are listed here. Add to that, that:

• we'd have to work within the confines of TinyMCE and
• that our plugin is meant to work with any template language and they all have different syntaxes for loops, conditionals, ...

My conclusion would be that something like this does not fals within the scope of the plugin. I propose to close the issue.
