Zooper text to Hyperlink - Zooper Widget General

Hi, I have an RSS plugin in Tasker that pulls an RSS feed including the associated link to the relevant article.
Getting the data into a Zooper is straightforward but I want to make the articles clickable by embedding a hyperlink. I have the links pulled into tasker variables and converted to zooper variables but I am at a loss how to make this work in Zooper.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

[Q] setting variables

So I was wondering if there is a way to set a variable to something, then change it dynamically based on an event. Here is an example of an end goal with what I mean. So you make a widget that shows the forecast and all items have some form of
[bo]$#TMU_ISPLAYING#=1?0:100$[/bo]
To hide if media is playing (when combined with media utilities). I would like to take this a bit further and say, if I have that same widget, a forecast widget and down in the corner is an icon, by clicking that icon(the event) it changes the value of a variable in zooper, and the widget can change based on that. Much like with the TMU_ISPLAYING, except with this, your click changes the variable and not an outside app. Does anyone know if this is possible at all, even just a very random workaround solution would be cool, I just want to be able to change a widget based on a click. Thanks in advance.

This is possible with Tasker. Zooper has a built-in Tasker plugin so you can send data from Tasker to Zooper and I have used it for the same thing you are trying to do. If you are used to work with Tasker it's really easy to setup but if you are new to Tasker, it might take you a bit to figure it out. Here is a link on how this generally works: http://www.jagwar.de/en/zooper-tasker-variables/. To get you started, you can find my task here. To use Tasker tasks from Zooper, you set them as a Module OnTap action via the Tasker shortcut action.
Hope this helps you out enough to get you going

[Q] How do I/Can I copy and paste from one widget to another?

I have two home screens using Themer. Homescreen1 uses Zooper Widget to display various categories. I'd like for this Widget to show up on Homescreen2, but would prefer not to have to completely recreate it from scratch.
Is there a way I can copy and paste a widget from one homescreen to another? Essentially, I'd like to clone it and reuse it elsewhere without having to spend hours in the Zooper Widget preferences each time.
Am I missing something obvious?

To do something like this, you need the Pro version of Zooper. It will not work with the free one.
Just save your widget as a template (the disk icon in the action bar), create a new Zooper widget and load the template from the SD card folder. You have now "copied" the widget. If you do changes to the first one, you'll have to re-save and re-load though.

Shortcut to Calendar Event from Widget

Dear All,
Tried searching for this with little progress. I have a very simple widget that shows an agenda-type view. It just lists the events in separate boxes with date, time and event name (as per picture).
Is there a way so that when I click on a specific event it can take me to the 'Edit event' option within my calendar? I have been toying with Tasker (yeah, didn't get far with Tasker for this!) and with different calendars to see if that make a difference (for example I find it easier to manipulate iCal over Sunrise within Zooper) but I have turned up nothing.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Dealing with dollar signs in calendar titles?

Ok, im having a fun problem with a custom calendar widget.
If i have a rich text layer that also contains a conditional, zooper throws an error when calendar items have $ in them.
Ive tested it pretty heavily, and this breaks the widget every time, and ive tried every formatting option i can find for the conditional...
Calendar item title: "calendar test $10"
Rich text: $2>1?yes:no$ #C1TITLE#
Alternate test: $(1+1)$ #C1TITLE#
This is the simplest conditional i can find.
Even with the conditional on a separate line, it still breaks.
If i remove the conditional, the variable displays properly
Is there a way to escape an entire variable so that the $ is ignored, or am i doing something wrong with the conditional itself?
Thanks in advance.
Instead of using a rich text module use a regular text module and see if that works.
As long as your rich text module contains a conditional there's no way to escape a dollar sign. However it looks like a regular text module doesn't have the problem with dollar signs in variables that rich text modules do.
Thanks for confirming that its not just my system.
Unfortunately, not being able to color code the calendar widget makes it almost completely useless.
On the plus side, apparently adding a conditional like this also causes zooper to process Bbcode passed in from tasker variables. So i can use tasker to process out/escape the offending characters, and generate the widget text there.
Its turning into a really ugly workaround though, since tasker doesnt handle calendar data well.
Is there an official place to make requests/bug reports, or should i just send the zooper devs an email?

nooper

nooper = newb zooper
Is there a list of variables/coding for apps not listed in the zooper main tekst list?
just trying to make a few simple sms and email count widgets.
I know how to do it all but cant figure out the variables for the native email (not gmail) app im using and the native note4 teksting app doesn't seem to want to show count eother. (I use downloaded font and wallpaper)
is there some kind of way to force zooper to detect or recognize the variables for these?
