CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi,

I want to mirror the content of one page into another page, but I didn't found a tag for this. Is there one? I want to make a page that works like a mash up... it accesses a defined content block (f.e.: block="introduction") of a page and displays it at another page... is this possible?

Thanks

In my opinion you have to separate blocks you want to include to others sites or pages. To do this you can create page (or php file(s) )  without template (or with very minimal template) with some content blocks accessible over additional url parameter (&piece_of_cake=a_one_third).

First of all you will need smarty function - {fetch} http://www.smarty.net/manual/en/language.function.fetch.php
If you simply add "&showtemplate=false" to your url, your former CMSMS page will omit template.

Carefully inspect files, they might contain all info you need:

• /index.php
• /modules/Printing/output.php
• /modules/Printing/action.default.php

Let us know how it is going.

found a solution here. I'm making the site, und using the tag found there for retrieving the neccessary content parts.

If you want the full page, you can either use the internal-link content-type.

Also the module CGSimpleSmarty has logic inside, to take the content of another pages block, to show it there...
