Oracle Apex custom tags in report templates

Question

I am creating a report template for an oracle apex application. I created a custom tag such as #TITLE#, when I run my report the data does not show up, it just shows #TITLE#. To be more specific here is my code.

Report Template (Column Template 1)

<td#ALIGNMENT# headers="#COLUMN_HEADER_NAME#" class="data">#TITLE#</td>

So in my Column Template 1 the custom tag #TITLE# is where I want my data from the query to be placed. This is my query

SELECT f.filename AS TITLE
FROM files f

In my report I have selected my custom report template. I know I am probably missing some configuration checkbox to make the data recognize the custom tag.

In APEX there are 2 kinds of report template: column template and row template.

You need the row template version but have picked the column template version, which only allows the generic #COLUMN_VALUE# rather than specific named columns.
