Page Properties Report Macro with ancestor as @parent

Roberta Bortolotti

Hi,

I am trying to use the page properties macro to filter by children of a parent page. The macro is used in a template so the reference to the parent page needs to be dynamic. In other words, instead of choosing the "with ancestor" with the exact specific page name, have something like '@parent'.

This way, whenever a page is created based on a template, the page properties report will pick up properties for all its children pages.

The option to use label in this case does not work well because it can't group based on children, but it could pick up pages does not have the parent page as its parent. 

Is this possible?

Thank you,

Roberta

Hi @Roberta Bortolotti ,

If I got it right, you have something like the following structure:

• Parent > contains Page Properties Report macro
  • Child 1 > contains Page Properties macro
  • Child 2 > contains Page Properties macro
  • ...

Also, you're creating a 'parent' page from a template? Or the child pages are created from the same template you've mentioned?

I have tried checking JAC related to this request and the closest thing I've managed to find is this: CONFSERVER-38701: Page Properties Report with current page as parent 

If possible, it would be great if you could share some additional details on the whole process and what you're trying to achieve, that would be great.

Cheers,
Tobi
