# Macro Errors

*Checks to make sure macro errors are not set to throw a YSOD (yellow screen of death), which would prevent certain or all pages from loading completely.*

{% hint style="warning" %}
Macros will be removed in the next version. Consider using Partial Views or Blocks in Rich Text Editor.
{% endhint %}

## How to fix this health check

This health check can be fixed by providing configuration on the following path: `Umbraco:CMS:Content:MacroErrors`.

This configuration can be setup in a configuration source of your choice. This guide shows how to set it up in one of the json file sources.

### Updating the json configuration

The following json needs to be merged into one of you json sources. By default the following json sources are used: `appSettings.json` and `appSettings.<environment>.json`, e.g. `appSettings.Development.json` or `appSettings.Production.json`.

```json
{
    "Umbraco": {
        "CMS": {
            "Content": {
                "MacroErrors": "<Inline(default)|Silent|Throw|Content>"
            }
        }
    }
}
```

One example that can be used in production, but is not recommended for development:

```json
{
    "Umbraco": {
        "CMS": {
            "Content": {
                "MacroErrors": "Silent"
            }
        }
    }
}
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-cms/13.latest/extending/health-check/guides/macroerrors.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
