I've installed a TWiki 4.3.0 site. Afterwards, I noticed that, in the "All Admin Tools Category Topics", a number of the topics show "%IF..." in the description. Obviously, this is some sort of macro that decides what the information should be, but it appears not to be working. Have I missed setting up something properly?

Discussion and Answer
The admin tools category at
TWiki04x03.AdminToolsCategory contains a SEARCH that uses a
$summary in the
format="". The summary shows the initial text without any formatting. Variables are stripped by default. There seems to be a bug where variables with parameters such as
%IF{ "condition" then="something" else="something else" }% are not stripped completely. This is a display issue only.
I tested this at
Sandbox.TestSearchOnIF (currently on TWiki 3.0) and on a TWiki 3.1.2 installation, same behavior.
Feel free to file a bug report.

Where's the documentation on how to file a "bug report"?
