   * Some special macros are always expanded. See [[System.TemplateTopics#TemplateTopicsVars][template topic macro expansion]].
   * Refer to System.TemplateTopics and [[System.VarSTARTSECTION][STARTSECTION]] with the =type="expandvariables"= parameter

---++ Example

%JQREQUIRE{"chili"}%
<verbatim class="tml">%STARTSECTION{type="expandvariables"}%
 [[%WIKIUSERNAME%][%QUERY{'%WIKIUSERNAME%'/FirstName}% %QUERY{'%WIKIUSERNAME%'/LastName}%]]
 created this topic at %SERVERTIME% in %WEB% web when there were %SEARCH{"1" type="query" nonoise="on" format="" footer="$ntopics"}% topics in it
%ENDSECTION{type="expandvariables"}%

There are currently %SEARCH{"1" type="query" nonoise="on" format="" footer="$ntopics"}% topics in %WEB%</verbatim>

<blockquote>%I% Note that the =SEARCH= and =WEB= macros inside the =expandvariables= section are expanded on save; whereas the same macros outside of that section, are saved verbatim.</blockquote>

<form action="%SCRIPTURLPATH{"edit"}%/%WEB%/%TOPIC%_AUTOINC0" method="post"> <input type="hidden" name="topicparent" value="%TOPIC%"/> <input type="hidden" name="templatetopic" value="%TOPIC%Template"/> Using [[%TOPIC%Template?raw=on]]: <input type="submit" class="foswikiSubmit" value="Create new topic"/> </form>

---+++ Created topics

%SEARCH{
  "parent.name='%TOPIC%'"
  type="query"
  excludetopic="*Template"
  format="   * [[$web.$topic][$topic]] modified $isodate by [[$wikiusername][$wikiname]]"
}%
