Hi
We have a similar problem and after many long discussions
we came up with this solution:
In order to have some (same) paragraphs from page A on other pages (B,
C,...)
good idea is to include them there (B, C,...) from page A
so far this is possible, but not so flexible as this scenario:
In website Tree we also should be able to see paragraphs as nodes
then we could use this tree in order to select the desired paragraphs
for inclusion
same as we can select page as internal link
yes, there is a lot of work before all this becomes usable
and i'm very busy this month, but next month this will be priority ONE
so if someone else do it before me, i hope he finds the above scenarios
usefull
I'd like to know what do official developers think about this...

Hello all,
We have the following need. Users would like to be able to have a page that
pick the information
in another pages. This is because they have many reports and some paragraphs
are duplicated in
several reports.
They would like to be able to type the text only once.
What we have in mind is to define a template for each of these paragraphs,
and then to have
another template that include these (sub) templates.
E.g: Report A is made of 3 paragraphs. These paragraphs also exists in other
reports.
We could create template 1 for paragraph 1, template 2, template 3
Then we create a template (sait A) for the report A.
In the report A we think to include template1, template2 and template3.
Is it worth to do that or should we do that programmatically by accessing
the repository.
Many thanks
