Links to each other on the Confluence pages

[Ed Izotov]

I created the special template for Use Case creation in Confluence. And I'd like to link pages between themselves. Is there some way to link pages like Jira (or other bug-trackers)? When I insert the link on the 1st page, reverse link is created too on the second page. I'd like to create a custom field fot this in my template

You can do this pretty easy with a user macro. Here is what it would look like.

Macro name:
referring_content

Macro title:
Referring Content

Macro Body Processing:
No maco body

Template:

#set($containerManagerClass=$content.class.forName('com.atlassian.spring.container.ContainerManager'))
#set($getInstanceMethod=$containerManagerClass.getDeclaredMethod('getInstance',null))
#set($containerManager=$getInstanceMethod.invoke(null,null))
#set($containerContext=$containerManager.containerContext)
#set($linkManager=$containerContext.getComponent('linkManager'))

#set($pages = $linkManager.getReferringContent($content))

#foreach($page in $pages)
    <a href="$page.getUrlPath()">$page.getTitle()</a><br/>
#end
