He means how to prevent it from substituting - he want's it live,
changing with the CURRENT date and time (goodness knows why) - I
don't have a solution. I guess it would require some hacking, or a
sort of trashy solution would be to create another template like
{{cd}} with the content {{CURRENTDAY}} in it; so that when {{cd}} is
forced to substitute, it merely puts the {{CURRENTDAY}} template in
there. Substitution isn't recursive through other templates, you know.

Hello all, and thanks for your help!
A question about signing with "~~~":
In my preferences page, I can choose to edit my sign-up by myself.
Well, the
problem is that when I insert a template inside the signing-text,
it becomes
immediately a "SUBST" template.
i.e. - when I use the template {{CURRENTDAY}} it suddenly becomes
{{SUBST:CURRENTDAY}} when I save the preferences page. If I want
my signing
to keep moving, or for any other reason do not write the template
itself,
Can I do it somehow?
Just use ~~~~ because it will write the day and time etc.
