    Hi @jchen,

    Sorry, my bad ... typo there ... it should be this (without the "/" in the back of first line)

    <#if !user.anonymous>
    ... rest of code ...
    </#if>

     (Just FYI, the error description said line 1, column 22 ... that means a typo on the first line, 22nd character)

     

    Let us know if that works out for you

I've gotten that error a number of times if there's some type of freemarker error in your code. Most of the time you get the crazy yellow/red long error message but not always. Maybe go through your code line/block by line/block and comment in/out things as you go through in order to test what will print out to the page without error?
