How to merge copy from another website into your pageYou can display content from another website within your own web pages using the "Remote Page" template. IMPORTANT CAUTIONUsing content from other websites without permission might cause legal problems. It is imperative that you understand copyright law so that you know what you can and cannot republish. If you're ever in doubt, don't do it! | |
| Create a New page with the "Remote Page" template, or change an existing page to the "Remote Page" template. (page properties screen) | ![]() |
| Navigate to the "Content: Remote Pages" screen. | ![]() |
Enter the URL for the remote website page from where you want to grab content. TIP:Often the "Printable Version" will give better results! | ![]() |
| To display only part of the remote page, enter a start tag and an end tag to define the beginning and end of the desired content. | ![]() |
How to find tags to use for the start tag and end tagOpen the remote page in your browser. From the browser menu select:
Scan through the page source to find the content that you want. If you are lucky there might be a comment like "<-- Content -->" or a HTML tag like "<a TopOfPage>". Even the HTML "<body>" tag might work for you. Experiment a bit... if it doesn't work you can always change it to try something else. | ![]() |
