| + | • Do not include the square brackets [ ] in the actual URL. | ||
| + | • Do not include the "&value=" without a value. | ||
| + | |||
| + | You can pass a trigger value to the macro by adding the "value" query parameter to the URL. The parameter is available to the macro as the [[token:TriggerValue|%TriggerValue% text token]] (v7.0+). | ||
