Is there any way to have the same static page displayed in multiple categories, but not all categories? I may be missing a simple way to do this, but so far I haven't had any luck. Basically, one of the groups I'm helping with their site want to have a couple of static pages with information like "About Us" and "Our Current Big Campaign" but they only want these pages to appear in about two or three of the topics, not just one of them and not all of them. Thanks in advance for any help.

Love and Healing,

Treesong

P.S. These forums are cool. Are they one of the plug-ins for Geeklog? I want to put these on my site and maybe on the site I'm helping... Smile

Do you mean multiple centerblocks? If so, I'm with you.

I also happen to know about a certain plugin that may support it for its own featured pages. When it does, I hope it spreads to static pages too...

P.S.
This forum is indeed a plugin for Geeklog (made by portalparts.com), albeit not its latest version (the newest one uses forum tags instead of actual HTML tags, gives you a partial preview of posts, etc.).

Geeklog doesn't have support for multiple topics. A static page (and block and story and ...) can only be assigned to one topic at a time.

bye, Dirk

That's exactly what we asked to change in static pages...

Treesong,

Don't forget that the staticpages are very easy to duplicate by simply pressing the [C] which can be a conveniant work around before the feature you request is available.

Someone has already suggested it in the aforementioned topic, so I'd repeat the answer: that's only good if don't plan to update those static pages frequently.

Imagine if each time you'd fix a single letter, you'd have to fix 5 static pages!
