How can I create a custom create meeting notes link?

Rob Horan

Without getting into why this is the case - because I cannot change this - I am using a shared space that will have multiple meeting notes nodes.  I would like to create a link that will create a new meeting note under a particular parent page.  I can do this for custom templates but I cannot find a way to do this for meeting notes.

Side note, I do not have admin rights on the system I want to do this on.

Hello Robert,

Thank you for contacting us about this.

Can you clarify - by nodes, do you mean parent pages? Thus, meetings are broken down into main categories and you want to organize the individual meeting notes this way instead of under one parent page. Is that correct?

If so, when you create a page from a template, it will automatically make the current page you are on the parent. There's not a way to force the parent page from a single link. Normally I would advise the Create from Template Macro, but this doesn't allow you to choose a specific parent page. (There's a feature request for that here: CONFSERVER-33098.)

You might be able to build that from a URL, as is suggested from this thread:

• Can I trigger a template from a link? 

You'll need to figure out the meeting template ID as well as the space and page ID that you want the parent to be, but I bet you could create a separate link for each meeting notes "node" that you require. 

Let me know if you have any questions about that.

Regards,

Shannon
