Embedding table into multiple pages with filtering

Andrew Imeson

I have a page with a table that tracks information about VLAN and prefix assignments across multiple datacenters. I use the Table Filter Plugin.

What I want to do is make all additions and changes in the global table, and then in each datacenter page have a section with the table embedded with a filter filtering down to that specific datacenter site.

You could put an excerpt macro around your table on the global page and then on the other pages put the excerpt include macro inside your table filter macro. Then just set the default filtering on the table filter macro. One thing to note is that while you are editing the properties of the table filter macro the preview pane will not show correctly. At least it didn't in my setup. However, it works fine when you are viewing the page.
