This is a drupal question asked by Damian Peterson on 10 June 2009
I’m investigating the possibility of Drupal as a solution for a corporate with multiple websites, multiple users and multiple data sources. I’ve been impressed so far with Drupal but have come across a bit of a snag which I’m sure is due to something I’ve missed along the way.
We need to be able to allow our marketing staff create pages that contain products in which they can insert a simple snippet i.e. “[prod_price:123]” (or similar) that will tell that part of the page to insert a price which will be sourced from an external SOAP data source (which happens to be MS CRM).
We need to make it simple enough for marketing to use and I’m hesitant to ask them to have to include raw PHP. Perhaps something similar to the shortcodes used in WordPress.
