In all templates you can use the following tags which represent values specific to given checkin24-7 site. These are especially useful for META sites but you can use them for a single site as well. You can use these tags no matter if you are editing the template in WYSIWYG or HTML mode. Tags whose value is empty will be replaced with empty text.
In all templates in checkin24-7 you can use the tag $(S_XXX) which represents any text visible to your clients. It makes sense to use such tags, e.g. $(S_RESRES) which will output "Make reservation" instead of the plain text version because the text will be translated automatically to client's language. to find out the IDs of given text, you can go to Site Settings / Customized translation and when you search for texts containing given keyword, you'll see the keyword ID in the left column.
Another very useful feature you can use in your templates are conditional statements. They allow you to output different code based on a value of any tag. You'll find the details here
