    User macros in item name -> search for alternative

    Hello all,

    I noticed today that the support of user macros in the item name is deprecated since version 4 and is no longer supported.
    I find this very strange and hope someone can show me a way to implement the following now.

    I have a template with which I monitor Windows services
    Name, description, process and trigger are controlled by UserMacros.
    I can assign this template to a host and just need to fill in the macros.
    It is logical that the name of the item has the value of the user macro.

    Maybe I have overlooked some innovation....
    How can I implement the above scenario?

    The alternative here is that I create items for each host by hand -> But this takes a lot of time.

    ​Thanks in Advance

    The developers suggest using LLD and adding [HASHTAG="t703"]macros[/HASHTAG] to the items name.
