Example

Set a simple flag link.

<ac:macro ac:name="set-flag-link">
<ac:parameter ac:name="name">myflag</ac:parameter>
<ac:parameter ac:name="state">true</ac:parameter>
<ac:parameter ac:name="type">session</ac:parameter>
<ac:rich-text-body>
<p>Set myflag to true</p>
</ac:rich-text-body>
</ac:macro>
{set-flag-link:name=myflag|state=true|type=session}
Set myflag to true
{set-flag-link}

Setting this simple flag link results in the following:

A link now shows on the page with the text Set Flag to myflag. Hovering over the link will show flag=myflag in the URL.

Click the link to refresh the page. A flag of myflag will then be set for that session. Check the page source to see that the Session flag has been set.
