    Hi, I'm developing a new site with Revo 2.3.2 where I have a section for hiring machines and a section for sales of machines. The content is the same for each of the product pages, they just need to exist under two sections, i.e. Hire and Sales.

    I thought symlinks would be the way to go with this, so I created and published all of my pages under "Hire" and then created symlinks to them under "Sales" however all of them are generating "503 Error Site temporarily unavailable."

    Am I missing something or is this a bug?

    Thanks

      Never mind! Solved this one myself!

      When I made my symlinks I dragged the resource I was pointing to from the resource tree on the left to the symlink field in the create modal which gave me [[~id]]. The field only requires the number - e.g. "28" (without quotes).

      Sorry, bit of a palm-face moment!
