As I notice that each 'article' and each 'content part' has a unique ID would it be possible to be able to include an existing 'article' or 'content part' within and a 'content part' as a replacement tag in the same way we use {IMAGE:} and {IMAGE_LEFT:}

eg. {NESTED: articleID}
eg. {NESTED: contentpartID}

this way we could create articles and content parts that will be used within more than one article withough having to recreate them.

EXAMPLE>
article [ID:1] 20 image thumbnails.
each image is linked to an existing article within a hidden Menu (article [ID:2]).

I would like the article[ID:2] to be able to a show the article[ID:1] at the bottom by placing the replacement tag {NESTED: 1} in the last content part.

As this would just be an 'instance' or the article/content part no new data would be created (no extra host space needed) and if the article/content part is edited then it would automatically be reflected in all instances of that article/ content part.

I'm sure there are a lot of uses for this if thought about long enough

Hi pSouper,

THIS would be a great functionality ! That's just the thing that misses.

Cheers
