Parent page of older versions macro

[ATS Team _ BASF]

Hello everyone,

we have a nice little user macro in use which goes like:

#contentLink2($content.getParent() false false)

This works fine for the page itself (shows a link to the parent page). As soon as there is a new version of the page, the link vanishes in the older versions of the document. This properly makes sense since the page is now a version and hence no longer the child. Anyhow does anyone know an automated solution to still show the (former) parent page.

Best regards

Hi @ATS Team _ BASF 

Can you try to explain a bit clearer.

What I understand: 

• You have a Page A
• You have a Subpage B. Page A is the parent of Subpage B
• You have a macro on Subpage B, and this links to Page A
• Now you update Page A and on Subpage B is the link broken? 

Thanks for clarification

Thanks for looking into this. Actually it is like:

• I have a Page A
• I have a Subpage B. Page A is the parent of Subpage B
• I have a macro on Subpage B, and this links to Page A
• Now I update Page B (from verion 1 to version 2)
• On B.2 the link still works but on B.1 the link just vanishes.

Best regards

I think the problem is the macro. On an old version, macros could do some strange things :) 

• Why you need the correct link in the history? 
• Why you need the link with a macro and not manual? 

Honestly, I don't know how to fix this, sorry.
