Title: one page in more menu's
Post by: jjj on January 21, 2008, 01:00:32 PM

Normally a (text-) page belongs to one menu item. Is it possible to have one page connected to more than one menu items?

I want to make product pages but there are more than one way to get to one product:

When I sell for instance books I will make a page for Brad Bulgers book "MySQL/PHP Database Applications".  I have a menu item called "Databases" and an other menu item called Programming languages. When I create a page for this book I only can specify one parent…

This example is deliberately kept simple; I would like to have multiple products which I can show on multiple pages. Having the same product on more pages is not a solution  :cry:

 I know I can use hyperlinks; although setting up such a site will be possible; I am afraid to maintain it over longer time  :roll:.

Does anybody has solved this problem? (And if yes: do u have an example site?)

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

you can use the page typ "menu link". Create on page with the content and if you wanna have other menu points to link to this page use the menu link.

Dear Matthias,

Sorry for the delay in answering.

It the solution you mentioned is good but the implementation of the menu link is poor :(
1. There is no select or drop down list with the page name; I have to "know" the page name
2. When I change the name of a page the link is lost

I will look if its possible to make something myself. The wishes I have are quite simple ;-0
I will use helloworld_v0.47 as example. I hope when I have a question I still may ask them :-D

Thanks in advance!

All this is added/fixed in the upcoming version 2.7 of WB  :-D
