Include another page

Page history last edited by John-Peter 4 mos ago

This plugin can be used if you have content on your workspace that needs to be displayed consistently on multiple pages.  Instead of manually inserting the content on each page, which can lead to errors if the content ever needs to be changed, this plugin takes the content of a page and instantly inserts it into your workspace.

 

Important Note: The plugins inside an included page will not display properly when using this plugin.  For example, if you include a page to the FrontPage of your workspace that has a Table of Contents plugin, the plugin will show as a green image and not rendered content.

 

  1. Create a page on your workspace with the content you want to be inserted.
  2. On another page, click the "Insert Plugin" button.
  3. In the "Page information" category, choose "Include another page".

  4. Select the page you want to include.  You may also check the box option to have a border visible around the content.  This is helpful if you want the included content to stand out.

  5. Click Preview, and then click OK.  Then, save the page.

    The plugin will appear as a green box in the editor (as shown above), but the content of the included page will display properly while in view mode.
