Linking content between pages/tables

[David Pastl]

Hello,

Is there a method to which content can be linked together?  For example, if I have a table of various equipment and within that table a column exists indicating where in the building the equipment is, can a new table be created that lists all equipment in a particular room?

I think it's fairly similar to the tasks macro that exists, but not for people.

Cheers,

I think, it could work:

enter your table data in macro "page properties" including the column 'locatioon'; add a specific label to your page(s).

somewhere else (or on the same page) insert the macro "page properties report". Here only select the columns needed e.g. 'location'

Cheers,

Steffi

Would the page properties macro set do what you need to do:

page-properties-macro

I looked at it but it doesn't work quite the way I want.  Mostly how it makes the reports mean that I can't have multiple columns.

What I want is a database, which really isn't what this is meant for haha.

Then maybe you need to look at this paid plugin: Reportin Plugin

I have used this before to pull metadata from multiple pages to then create a tabulated report. Even took the data to create a management-friendly pie chart of the data. ;-)

The only issue I have had with the reporting plugin is figuring out the correct key chain to pull the data -- not always clear what the chain should be.
