What's The Macro For...

How do I use a macro to pull out a generic anchor from the file? (Similar how the %NAME% macro works) 

I want to control where these terms appear in my articles so they read better.

    WOW! @sven - that was quick!

    @sven - In TEST view, when you place:
    %spinfile-generic_anchor.dat% it shows up as a blank.

    I use:
    <a href="%url%">{%spinfile-generic_anchor.dat%|%url_domain%}</a>

    And when it selects the generic spin it shows it as a blank and doesn't recognise it.

    sorry it was %spinfile-generic_anchor_text.dat% because it the file in engines folder is called that way. You could have figured it yourself ... you macro expert ;P

    @sven - thanks! I'm still learning about macros in SER (total newbie!)! ;-) 

    On that note, can I use any macro with the program .dat files?

    Of course you can, with any file.
