This is terrific?

I just discovered that it’s impossible to make a dynamic schema with the new “Module into Module” schema. In fact, each page is built statically, no matter if there’re dynamic code included among the templates.

I love to do examples to make better understand what I say:

Let's say there're 1 entries and 1 comment. 

Previous MT versions: 
    "Main Index" includes "Recent_entries" 
    "Indidivual Entry" includes "Recent_entries"
    Recent_entries is is a snippet-code in MT language, rebuilt each time and outputting to "Recent_entries.shtml".

One entry more is published, and 1 comment done.
Result:
    dynamic code is executed. "Main Index" shows now 2 entries, 2 comments.
    As all entries that show 2 entries, 2 comments 


MT 4.x: 
    "Template" includes "other-Template" that includes "Recent_entries"

Result:
    dynamic code is NOT executed. "Main Index" shows 2 entries, 1 comments. 
    All entries show 1 entries, 1 comments.

In other words, only the page interested by a rebuild show the changes. All other pages remains unchanged because they not include the Recent_entries.shtml file.

The only way with the new MT having own website updated, is to rebuild whole website each time! (In my blog, it means wait 1 hour each time I post an entry. )

This is amazing. Not, it’s terrific. I hope I’m missing something!

If you need to share template code, replace all the "<" signs with "&lt;" or use this utility.
