I solved this one (granted, a workaround...) by simply rephrasing the 
message to something like: see the subject field for the ticket number.


But now I'm having another interesting challenge with regards to 
ArticleTemplates.

RT::FM includes an option (RTFM_TicketCreate) to enable RTFM Article use 
on ticket create pages (especially useful when doing an investigate to 
from Lookup.html). This is really nice.

But when Create.html uses an RTFM Article, it doesn't work with the 
RTFM::Extension::ArticleTemplates extension. It actually borks on 
ParseTemplate() not being able to reach $Ticket, which should be 
$TicketObj passed from Create.html. This isn't being passed on entirely as 
it should (or just not passed).

I've been poking around in
  - html/RTFM/Article/Elements/Preformatted
  - html/Callbacks/RTFM/Ticket/Create.html/BeforeCreate
in the RT::FM plugin directory, and
  - html/Callbacks/RTFM-Extension-ArticleTemplates/RTFM/Article/Elements/Preformatted/ProcessContent
in the RTFM::Extension::ArticleTemplates plugin directory, and other 
places, but can't quite seem to get it right...

Any ideas where to start to make it work?

and the undefined value at template:6 is $Ticket->CustomFieldValues('IP'); 
in this specific example. The RTFM Article (+ template code) works from 
Update.html.
