Parse content from another page... - widecircle - 2012-05-19
Is there a "good" way to have content from another page beeing pulled into a page.
For example to have content from an "About Us" - section pulled into the "Home" - section of a get simple website.
I guess you could just use some PHP like simpleXML to load & parse the XML-file for that section but I just wonder if there is another way of doing it that is more related to the get simple cms.
Best, Niklas

just use getPageContent('slug_name') to output content from another page

Hmm...now I've tried this but it seems as though it doesn't work.
No matter what I do it still treat it as if the code would be <?php get_page_content(); ?>

Hi - thanks for a fast answer!
I'm using version 3.1
I have a page with a slug that is kontakt - i.e www.mysite.com/kontakt
Then I try this <?php get_page_content('kontakt'); ?> with no result other than it outputs the content as if I would be using <?php get_page_content(); ?>

Yes this is what it does.
It allows you to pull in the content areas from other pages into 1.
What exactly are you trying to do?

Hi!
Hmmm...maybe we misunderstand each other or maybe I misunderstood the whole thing.
I'm trying to have the content for the kontakt-section or "kontakt-page" to be displayed on the start/index page. When is use <?php get_page_content('kontakt'); ?> on the indexpage it still display the content for the startpage. Am I missing something obvious here? :?

Oh - and to clarify - the slug of what I call "kontakt-page" is kontakt..

it's a different function your using.
use : getPageContent('slug_name')
The one your using is for the current page only.

Oh - crap!
I was missing something obvious - how embarrassing.
Thank you very much for taking some of your time to help me out...
Now it works like a charm!!

wow thats not confusing at all.
I say we replace that with an alias getContentForPage() in the future.
