-------------------------------------

Hi!

I'm still able to reproduce this issue with recent Site plugin (3.4). In fact version Site plugin version 3.0 beta 3 works fine for me, but any more recent starting from 3.0 fails to expand variables in distributionManagement section inherited from parent pom.

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: site:deploy
>    Affects Versions: 2.3

> {{site:deploy}} fails because variable substitution in the site url no longer works (it did in version 2.2).
> The distributionManagement section in out POM looks something like this:
> {code:xml}
> <distributionManagement>
> 	<site>
> 		<id>sites</id>
> 		<name>Project Website</name>
> 		<url>scp://server/sites/${project.artifactId}/${project.version}</url>
> 	</site>
> </distributionManagement>
> {code}
> Copying the site to the above mentioned url fails with this message:
> {noformat}
> [INFO] Error uploading site
> Embedded error: Error performing commands for file transfer
> Exit code: 1 - bash: /sites/${project.artifactId}/${project.version}/../../id-of-the-artifact/0.2.8-SNAPSHOT: bad substitution
> {noformat}
> Ie. the substitutiuon variables have not been substituted, instead the property values have been appended to the url along with a few dots and dashes.
