copied!<blockquote> <p>Also, I have "SingleLine" checked because I want . to match \n</p> </blockquote> <p>If you untick “Single line” it will work. So obviously your <code>.</code> is the problem. An easy solution would be to use <code>.*?</code> instead of <code>.*</code> as that will non-greedily select just as much as it needs (instead of greedily selecting as much as possible). Another solution would be to replace the <code>.</code> by something more specific, like a negative look-ahead as you probably do no want to match another <code>{{</code> inside of it (or even <code>}}</code>). But in this case the non-greedy solution is much easier.</p> <p>You should probably change the multiplicator of the field character class as well so it won’t match things that are already part of the looptemplate.</p> <p>Also note that <code>[ > ]</code> is a character class that will select either a space or <code>></code>. So it will not select <code>" > "</code>. If you want that, just leave the brackets off:</p> <pre><code>\{\{(?<field>[^>]*?)? > (?<looptemplate>[^}].*?)?\}\} </code></pre> <p>In your case, as you probably want to make the looptemplate thing optional, you probably want to do it like this though, with a non-capturing group:</p> <pre><code>\{\{(?<field>[^>]*?)?(?: > (?<looptemplate>[^}].*?))?\}\} </code></pre> <p>Also one final note; if you want the <code>.</code> to match line breaks, better provide an example where that is necessary.</p> <p>(Okay, another note, as m.buettner correctly mentioned in his answer, character classes only need to mention each character once; furthermore, you do not need to escape curly braces inside character classes, so it all simplifies to just <code>[^}]</code>)</p>
