XF 2.1 Rendering data from custom template to popup modal?

[BoostN]

Hello, I don't really even know how to word the question rather than post a few screenshots and hopefully someone can correct the title if necessary.

I'm using the tag <xf:codeeditorrow> inside a custom template to allow me to hopefully render data as you would any XF template, but it doesn't render in that value, rather it prints it.

Example (source):




I'm basically wanting to output a html file that renders data when the user hits preview.. If I put raw HTML in that field it works fine:




It's likely I'm approaching this very wrong, but looking for any thoughts and/or help around this.

Use single braces.

<xf:codeeditorrow> just displays the input in a CodeMirror instance, it has no impact on whether the input will be rendered using the template system. Custom field display templates use simple string replacements and aren't run through the template system.
