Hello,
I'm not very well versed on all of this. I literally use WYSIWYG twice a year. I have a couple of very small web sites I maintain for a client. There are multiple places on multiple pages where I have a semi-static date, which changes twice a year, and its only text. My question is, is there a way to make one one change in text and have it atomically change in multiple places. So basically a text string that changes in multiple places based on changing it in one place, or is sourced in one place. Templates won't work because the accompanying text surrounding these date fields changes sometimes, but not always. They are all in text boxes BTW.
Thanks,
Dan

You can use editable contents tool for that. It has a basic cms to control text type editing but note that it may take multiple editable contents as you mentioned. It can not change 5 or 10 text boxes by doing it from 1 but also make take 5 or 10 fields but it will be editable from a single administrative panel.

To be able to change an object just once which will change all occurances you need to use an Embedded Page.
Look in Help for Embedded Page.

If it is just a date you need to update across many pages you could try using a user defined variable.

Just a thought.

Good one.

Greetings,

in one project I used to change the date from one place on several other pages like this:
1. I created a page named "current date" that only contained the date, plus I used the "iFrame Resizer Content" extension

2. I used "Inline Frame" and "iFrame Resizer" for places in the pages where the date should be visible.

Then it was always enough to change the date (eg cushy cms) only on the "current date" page and the change was reflected in all visible places on the other pages.

This is the easiest and best way as far as I am concerned.
