Variable for "Page Title" in Properties Report filter?

Scott Beeson_8ofcyk

I have a Page Properties Report on a page called "Test Page 1". It has a filter for "Including Text" and I have typed in "Test Page 1". Basically, this lists all pages that reference this page, as well as defined properties.

My question is, can I reference the page name via some sort of variable so I don't have to change this for every page?

Basically, something like this:

Is this possible?

Well this variable and method is available, but not clear it will work in the macro as a field: $content.getTitle()

I am not exactly clear what you want to do, but take a look at the docs on the CQL field/filter. It does allow references to ancestors and parents.

Unfortunately, that does not work. As far as "what I want to do", not sure how to be more clear. Here are two screenshots that might help. I would like to have the same results with both, but as you can see I do not:

Well I am not sure what you mean by

Basically, this lists all pages that reference this page, as well as defined properties.

References how? Links to it?

Did you try adding a filter and using the CQL filter using With title? Or can you filter looking only at child pages (With ancestor), or via page labels?

This may also be a case where a user macro wrapper is what you want to do. Basically create a user macro that retrieves $content.getTitle(), inserting it as a parameter in the report macro. This is a trick I use often to pass special settings OR restrict options for users.

Screenshot 1 shows what I'm doing right now. I'm putting the page title in the "Including Text" filter. It does exactly what I want. "Streaming System" is the title of the page. Any pages that mention the "Streaming System" will then show up in the table. This is what I want. This is working.

The problem is that when I go to make this a template, I'll have to change that field every time. I'd rather access the title dynamically via a variable.

With Title and With Ancestor filters will not help.
