"Multiple terms from node" relationship on node template displays context keywords, but they do not work as substitutions

Having issues with this too, subs

It's also an issue in the latest dev.

And to clarify. It's not that %terms:tids is empty. If you output it as the page title. It'll work (e.g. I get 78+98+99 for a particular node). It's when this is passed to the views content pane that it doesn't work. However, if instead of %terms:tids I paste in its output of 78+98+99, then it works.

In short: %terms:tids will output data when used as a panel title, but these values are not getting passed through for a views content pane. I'm assuming this is ctools related versus panels or views as both panels and views will work when a manual string is used.

PS. If there is a link that has tips on how to best debug ctools overlays, I'll gladly give this a whirl myself. But I haven't had enough time to really learn this system yet, so I don't know where a good starting point would be.

In this case, plugins/contexts/terms.inc -- there's the 'convert' and 'convert list' keys that point to functions.

Wait, how are you passing %terms:tids to the content pane?

Hey merlin.

I pray that this is not user error (based on your last comment) and that I might be doing something stupid.

My view is a content pane with a context filter accepting term id's.
The argument in the view is being sent by "Input on pane config"
In the panel context tab, I'm using the relationship to "Multiple terms from node"

Now in the panel, I'm adding the view content pane in. I then add the term id through "Content has term ID." If I manually sent (e.g. 78 representing 'drupal') it works. But if I pass %terms:tids instead, nothing appears. I know %terms:tids represents 78 because if I output it as a title, I can see 78.

I'm debugging using the pointers you suggested in #4. So far, I'm thinking the ctools_context_keyword_substitute is not getting the correct information sent to it, but I haven't been able to confirm it yet.

Thanks for the followups. I appreciate it. If it's user error, I'll kindly close the thread. Otherwise, I'll keep debugging using the suggestions above.

Using devel's dpm function, it seems like %terms:tids is not being replaced for the "Content has term ID" field, but again, it replaces just fine in the panel title.

You should use 'From context' instead, and then select the tids from multiple terms. Then you can pass the context right through and not try to input on pane config.

I don't think that the "input on pane config" does context substitutions.

Fixed!

For those finding this thread later: the method is using #8 by merlinofchaos. Here are the more detailed instructions.

- Setup your view with a 'content pane' display and your contextual filter. Test with the preview functionality to make sure it's working.
- Configure PANE SETTINGS > Argument input:Edit > From context
- Go to your panel and setup the context by adding the relationship for Multiple terms from node
- Add your view into the panel as a view (don't worry that it's not a view pane... I got tripped up here)
- In the view settings, send the "Term IDs of all terms" or whatever is appropriate to your goal

I can clarify this more, but this should get you going because this is what fixed this issue for me.

Although you might assume you can do the same thing using the "Input on pane config" option, the text subsitutions don't work here and that might confuse you (as it did for me). So don't use that option :)
