Cannot Reference Settings within Each

Hi,

I was looking to manage some icons for our Categories on our Homepage via the settings, so I have this (stripped down version):

{{#each categories}}
  {{#is id settings.homepage_category_1_id}}
    <img src="{{settings.homepage_category_1_icon}}"/>
  {{/is}}
{{/each}}

But this produces errors on both settings uses (not possible to access `settings` in `settings.homepage_category_1_id`)

The handlebars documentation on Each https://handlebarsjs.com/guide/builtin-helpers.html suggests using 

@../

To go up the scope, but it appears that in Guide this does not work - it throws an error on the `.`. after settings. Is there a way to access the settings object inside a scoped loop?

All HBS documentation also references 'this' in the each loop, so I think Zendesk Guide is implementing this a bit differently (scoping the loop to only be able to access 'this' maybe?)

Thanks,

Cheryl

      Hi Christopher,

      Brilliant, thanks, that's just what I needed!

      It may be useful to link to there from https://developer.zendesk.com/documentation/help_center/help-center-templates/helpers/#built-in-helpers

      Hi Cheryl,
       
      To escape the context, use ../.  This would change your example to:
       
      {{#each categories}}
        {{#is id ../settings.homepage_category_1_id}}
          <img src="{{../settings.homepage_category_1_icon}}"/>
        {{/is}}
      {{/each}}
