Is this possible? It's simple when the RSS feed would be stored in the repository, I would only need to call the reference to the document like this:companyhome.nodeByReference["workspace://SpacesStore/e661dccb Thu, 31 Jul 2008 09:14:08 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/open-external-url-in-freemarker/m-p/150165#M105058 simon 2008-07-31T09:14:08Z Re: Open External URL in Freemarker https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/open-external-url-in-freemarker/m-p/150166#M105059 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>I don't believe Freemarker allows this out of the box. However, Alfresco allows you to add your own apis to Freemarker.&nbsp; You could write a Java class that pulls in the URL by exposign a Custom Root object to Freemarker.&nbsp;&nbsp; It's quite easy, I've done it several times for projects. </SPAN><BR /><BR /><A href="http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Template_Guide#Custom_Root_Objects" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Template_Guide#Custom_Root_Objects</A></BODY></HTML> Sat, 02 Aug 2008 09:11:37 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/open-external-url-in-freemarker/m-p/150166#M105059 jbarmash 2008-08-02T09:11:37Z Re: Open External URL in Freemarker https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/open-external-url-in-freemarker/m-p/150167#M105060 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Thanks jbarmash, I was hoping for an easy solution but I'm afraid there isn't any.
