Hi Guys.

I'm slowly going nuts here..

I've created a custom workflow that has a property (amongst others), "Message", that I want to parse values as normal.

Somehow, this doesn't work! The "this.Message" property comes out as if it has allready parsed, since my property {firstName} isn't there.

If I look at this.Workflow.Settings i can see that the property initially contains this text {firstName}.

The record also has this property, but somehow it just isn't replaced.

I've tried applying this.Message.ParsePlaceHolders(), and as far as I know this works used to work like a charm..

Has something changed in relation to this? E.G are placeholders parsed "automatically" when I'm looking at the property this.Message inside my "Execute"-method?

a bit of code:

     string withRazorView = record.ParseWithRazorView("~/views/partials/" + this.RazorViewFilePath); //does this parse placeholders as well?
 if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(this.Message))
            {
                string s = this.Workflow.Settings.Where(x => x.Key == "Message").FirstOrDefault().Value; //contains the {firstName]
                s = Umbraco.Forms.Data.StringHelper.ParsePlaceHolders(record, s); //seems to remove my placeholder
                withRazorView = withRazorView.Replace("<!--##MESSAGE##-->", "<p>" + s.ParsePlaceHolders().Replace(Environment.NewLine, "<br />") + "<p>"); //just removes my placeholder
            } 

I'm fairly sure this just "used to work", but somehow that isn't the case here..
