Several [[ikiwiki/Directive]]s take ikiwiki-formatted text as arguments, such as the `then` and `else` arguments of the new `if` directive, or the `desc` argument of the `shortcut` directive. However, smileys do not work in these arguments. Since the arguments to [[ikiwiki/Directive]]s might use the same syntax as smileys for a different meaning, smiley substitution should not happen until after [[ikiwiki/Directive]]s. --[[JoshTriplett]] > Sorry, I should have filed this under [[bugs]], not [[todo]]. > > Also, for an example of this issue, consider the sample conditional on [[plugins/conditional]]. > > --[[JoshTriplett]] [[todo/done]] --[[Joey]]
