Page variables
Page variables are prepared values that can be inserted into MD or Rich page content without writing PHP.
They are intended for cases where a PHP developer prepares specific values or output — such as prices, opening hours or data from a database table — that an editor should be able to use in normal page content.
What the editor uses
Insert a variable in a page with:
[VAR:name]
Examples:
[VAR:hourly_rate_1]
[VAR:price_table]
When page variables are configured, the Rich editor and MD editor toolbar can show the available variable names for easy insertion, so you do not have to type the token by hand.
Where they come from
Page variables are defined by a developer in:
/pages/zvars.php
A variable can return a simple text value or complex generated HTML. Editors only use the prepared variable names; they do not need to know the PHP behind them.
