Confiforms: Create a page with a title similar to the original (with substitutions

Katherine Barako

Hello,

I was wondering if there was a way in Confiforms to create a page with a title similar to (but different than) the page creating it.

I have an initial form that creates* a "level 1" page called called ABC-### PageTitle, where ### increments via autonumber. On each ABC-### page, there is a second form with a button to create a "level 2" page called DEF-### PageTitle. I want the "### PageTitle" parts to always, automatically, match. 

Currently I have a field asking the submitter to manually enter/copy the ### and PageTitle from the title of the current page, but I'm wondering if there's a less error-prone way.

Thanks very much

 

*If it makes a difference, both ### and PageTitle are entries in the first form that define the title of the "level 1" page.

Hello and welcome to the Community @Katherine Barako 

yes, you should be able to avoid the manual copy here.

Since the second form sits on the page that was already created, you can reuse the current page title when you build the new one. And if ### and PageTitle already come from the first form, you can reuse those same values directly instead of asking users to type them again.

That gives you a cleaner setup and avoids errors from people copying parts of the title by hand.

Thats great to hear--I'm new to confluence and not sure how to implement this. Would you potentially be able to walk me through it?

What is the logic for the title, @Katherine Barako ?

How exactly a new title should be created?
