Several links within database?

Hi everyone!

I’m quite new to both website making and Editor X, so maybe there’s an obvious solution, but I have not been able to find it!

I’m building a website for my architecture office, and I’m using dynamic pages for project pages. Furthest down on each project page (example: https://www.myllaarkitektur.se/projekt/villa-h), I would like to have “similar projects”, so customers can keep browsing. Currently I’ve managed to add a gallery with photos of the projects I want to link to. (See image)
However, I’m stumped with how to create links for them.

Preferably I wouldn’t use this solution at all, but rather just point the gallery to the projects I want to show, but I’m prepared to use workarounds.

So, any ideas on how to accomplish this?

Kind regards
Kaj

Hey Kaj,

one solution to achieve what you want is to add the images as individual images to the dynamic page (for example 3 instances) and in your collection in the content manager add 3 img fields and 3 corresponding url fields (field type- URL). like so:

1292×498 45.1 KB

1746×492 34.4 KB

after that connect the images in the dynamic page to the corresponding image source and the link to the corresponding url field like so:

1150×1232 180 KB

and the result:

Hi Ido!

That worked great! Thank you!

Do you know if it’s possible to use multi references to do this? I’ve tried to figure it out by following available instructions but I haven’t succeeded.

Hey Kaj,
Glad that the solution helped you.
Can you clarify what you mean by multiple references? what exactly do you want to achieve?

I’m reading up on these articles (https://support.wix.com/en/article/working-with-multiple-item-reference-fields).

What I’d prefer was if I easily could select what projects to show, instead of having to edit both image and link manually every time I want to change them. Preferably I would be able to go into the content manager and change, or even make it sort them in some way.

Sorry if I’m being unclear, I’m not quite certain of the limitations of the tools, so I’m kinda testing my way forward.

Okay, after several tries I managed to follow the instructions on the link above (the instructions ought to be clearer), and now it works as I want it to. Thanks for the help!
