Hello,
Is it possible to assign a page to more than one parent. That is something like this:
Collection 1
|
|------------House 1
|------------House 2
|
Collection 2
|
|------------House 1
|------------House 3
I am developing a application wherein admin can create multiple collections (categories) and then add properties (houses) to these collections.
I am new to SilverStripe therefore would any appreciate help or pointers.
Thanks,
Jatinder
The easiest (ie, no code) method is to use 'virtual pages'. When you are creating a page, select 'virtual page' and select page that you want to use. It is effectively the same as having a page in multiple locations.
Unfortunately that seems to work with regular Pages only.
If using ecommerce "product" pages and adding a product from a different product group as virtual page to another product group then the virtual page does not find its content. :(
Build your own?
With a new TreeDropdownField you should be able to access the page by id and pull the content from it with DataObject::get_by_id($obj, $id);
Word of warning: I have never worked with ecommerce productpages
