Irina, It just strikes me as very difficult due to these mere fact:
1)Each project in RedDot CMS is stored in a separate db instance. 2)When a user session is validated, you get a session GUID which is the passport to running all kinds of RQL. This session GUID though, is "bound" to a project. Just as you are "bound" to the previously selected project when you click on "Web Content" tab. And when you select a different project, your session GUID changes and when you run RQL, the cms xml server knows which db instance to run query with. 3)So the only option for you is to by-pass RQL and run raw query establish, maintain and update page guids relations across db instances. And thats not trivial. It just appears RedDot has been designed to defeat your stated purpose in this case. I will be very happy to stand correct if someone else sees some light in this dark tunnel. Sorry I do not have any good news for you. Henry Lu On Wed, Jan 21, 2009 at 2:51 PM, Irina <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hello, > > We have a large website with over than 120,000 pages.
