Noob here :0
When I try to add a timed event for a macro I consistently get a crash in PH2. See attached picture for the event. Is there some naming convention I need to be sticking to so it doesn't crash - I assume you can put macros in as timers, but so far I cannot get any of mine to save, let alone fire. The macro for this error was called 'GR8RM PARTIAL OFF'.

This is a known problem with 2.0.0. I received this work around from Dave some days ago.
“Ive already got this one fixed for the upcoming "fix" version. As a temporary work-around, if the Timed Event action needs to be a macro, you can either use the Timed Events maint in the webserver or change the action type to "Raw Formula" and call the macro using ph_macro like this: ph_macro("MACRO ID") “
I used the action type of Raw Formula and ph_macro("ID") solution successfully.

Where would I report the minor annoyance of when you change the type from 'Macro' to 'Raw' it erases the ID of the item you put in there?
