+==== Vanishing PHP text ====
+Unfortunately, the Macros plugin simply removes undefined macros. This clobbers PHP code, because PHP variables look a lot like macros.
+There is an easy fix: in ''macros.php'', function ''expand_macro_callback()'', change the following code to return the original match instead of an empty string:
+<code php>
+// a defined macro?
+$res = @$this->macroDefs[$name];
+if(!$res) {
+	$this->undefinedMacros[] = $name;
+	return $m[0];
+	// return '';
+}
+</code>
+Also, the macro identifying character ''$'' can be changed to another character or a sequence of characters. In ''macros.php'', search for and replace ''\$'' in regular expressions.
