I need to have content duplicated on a WP site. I know it's stupid. Not my fault.. I would like some sort of Alias feature like Concrete5 has, but I'm not finding anything similar to WP. Having to actually duplicate the content is stupid, and just redirect links will not be enough (breadcrumbs fuckup). So, does anyone know of a lifesaver plugin? Something that would allow me to create an alias of a page and put it somewhere else, and if I edit the original, the changes reflect on the copy..
Cheers

Imagine this structure:
— Parent 1
—— Child 1
—— Child 2
—— Child 3
— Parent 2
—— Child 4
—— Child 2
—— Child 5Child 2 appears below both Parents.

Create a page template that pulls content from the first page and then create a new subpage under Parent 2 using that template?
- but that will lead to a new template for every alias. And how do you pull content from X page?ESKEMA
- You can add a custom field where you can enter the page id that the page template loads.vwsung18t
- if empty, load regular page content. http://css-tricks.co…vwsung18t

Use this plugin:

Then create a new page and pull in the content via that shortcode and the post ID.

^^This looks like it might work, but what if the content to be pulled is a bunch of custom fields?

If you're pulling in custom fields and such beyond just what is in a normal post there will be no easy solution. If that is the case you'd be better off writing your own shortcode to pull in the necessary content.

These links might help. Let us know where you end up. I use the advanced custom fields plugin a lot and I feel like there's a way to create a custom field that contains "shared" content that you can manage and give a specific field name to. Not sure about the shortcode portion, but I bet there's info out there somewhere.
