How do you place a custom page at a certain level in the Community Structure?
Lithium provides the capability of creating Custom Page Types which can be useful in various cases, for example when you need to create a page with custom content that may not fit well into one of the core page types. However when you create a custom page, it seems to live at the Community level, which means if you add custom content components to it in Studio (e.g. Custom Content 1, Custom Content 2, etc.), you must populate those content blocks at the Community level. This works if the content that you are creating fits at that level of your community, but what if it doesn't? What if it applies only to a certain Category or even a Board?
Is there a way to fit a custom page within a certan (lower) level of the Community Structure? Seehttp://lithosphere.lithium.com/t5/customer-ideas/new-relationship-community-pages-amp-page-type/idc-...
You can't place a stand-alone custom page at a lower level of the community; however, you can use the REST API to get the value of the custom content for a category or board.
For example, if you want to get the value of Custom Content 5 as it exists for category CatXYZ, your call would look something like:
/categories/id/CatXYZ/settings/name/customcontent.5_text
