 Is there a list of all the available variables somewhere, or do I just grep the source for TMPL_VAR?  And is there a way to refer to a variable inside of a wiki page or does it have to be done from a template?  Thanks. -- [[AdamShand]]
 
 I pulled a list of variables and posted it, its in the history for [[templates]] under my name. [[justint]]
