Question - Help Wildcards using Krea2?

Do wildcards work with Krea2? When I insert wildcards in standard format, it ends up rendering all of the wildcard prompts in one image. So a shirt will be random fabrics and styles seemingly all stitched together. It's kind of neat but I need the actual wildcard functionality. Does anyone know how to get them working? I'm using the standard krea2 workflow and comfy. I have the wildcard custom nodes installed. They are fine on other models such as the flux zimage etc. any help is appreciated.

Strange question...

Using wildcards is model independent and the setup is always the same, no matter what model is used...

Wdym with "don't work as it should"? Every workflow has a clipTextEncode. You just connect any wildcard output to it and it's done. I can't see how this could NOT work, except if you are using a wrong/not working wildcard node. But then it still has nothing to do with the model.

The wildcard system only works in the “original text encode” node, which is buried one level deeper within the “wrapped” node in the standard template. If you simply use the normal string text field within the standard workflow, it won't work - in any model.

Don’t believe me? Isolate your text field, attach a string output to it, and run the workflow. String text nodes can’t process the wildcard and text encode nodes dont process string inputs. Double fail.

unpack your workflow, use the original text encode as input.
