Sunshine Kid Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Affinity Publisher Can you link a page number in text content to update if the content you are linking to updates to a different page? I have a page that says Review page 5 in this book and if the piece on page 5 moves to page 6 then folks will go to the wrong page.

Alfred Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 You should be able to use fields for this.

Sunshine Kid Posted August 21, 2019 Author Share Posted August 21, 2019 Okay think you are talking about Document Sections under Fields so will try that. Thanks C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine Kid Posted August 22, 2019 Author Share Posted August 22, 2019 NO that did not work. There was no area to use the page number in the text to link to the title of the area I wanted to be linked to and update in case the area moves a page up or down in the document. I can do a hyperlink from the number to the area but that will only give the folks a way to the new location of the area NOT update the page number in the text before the area. It would always be wrong. Sample of text: Review page 9 in this book for a complete listing of how to... A Hyperlink will take it to the section area using a link to the title of the section BUT this text on page 4 will always say page 9 even when it moves in later editions. I only have 1 reference like this but trying to remember where it is on future editions will be a pain. Anyone else have a way to deal with this?

Staff Dan C Posted August 22, 2019 Staff Share Posted August 22, 2019 Hi Sunshine Kid If I've understood this correctly, you're wanting to link text for cross-referencing? This isn't currently possible (outside of page numbers) in Affinity Publisher, my apologies. You can read more about this here - Quote Please note - I am currently out of the office for a short while whilst recovering from surgery (nothing serious!), therefore will not be available on the Forums during this time. Should you require a response from the team in a thread I have previously replied in - please Create a New Thread and our team will be sure to reply as soon as possible. Many thanks!
