Adding a cross-linked list to a page | HCL Digital Experience

As your site grows, adding cross-linked lists that link to pages at the same level or in separate areas might become necessary. For example, to list News articles on an Executive Communications page, add a list to the Executive Communications page and then configure it to retrieve content from the News area.

About this task

Follow these steps to create a cross-linked list and configure a context override, which is required for supplying a scope for the list.

Procedure

1. Browse to the page you want to add the list to.
2. Switch to Edit mode.
3. Select the Content tab.
4. Click Lists.
5. Drag list portlets onto the page.
6. Click Actions.
7. Switch to Edit mode.
8. Hover over the list and click Open Edit Form.
9. In the list configuration form, scroll to the Context Override field and select which site area to use for the list.
10. Click Save & Close.

    When the page refreshes, the list is now focused on a specific site area and the title of the list is also linked to that area.
