It may just be that it's a Friday but is there an easy way of doing this? my site is stuctured as below...
Homepage -- Employer ---- About us ---- How we work ---- Our people ---- Contact us - Graduate ----How we can help ---- Our products ---- Case studies ---- Contact us - Contact us
As you can see there are three contact pages! all are required to be in the locations they are as the navigation reflects where you are in the site...
Employer / Graduate / Contact us Home / Employer / About us / How we work / Our people / Contact us Home / Graduate / How we can help / Our products / Case studies / Contact us
All three contact pages have the SAME content. Is there a way of creating the page once and have it used in the different loacations?
That works, but it brings me out into the top level of the site where the page it's linked to. There is no URL redirection which is good, but the navigation on that page is different.
Home / Employer / About us / How we work / Our people / Contact us --- clicking on contact us here (with redirect on it) will bring me out to the page here...
So i created an extra root node "Shared Content". On my textpages on the website I have an extra property to pick one or more of the "Shared Content" nodes.
With a macro the shared content is rendered on the original textpage.
Same page content in different locations in the site

You can create a doctype called redirect or something.
On that doctype you can add the property with a contentpicker : http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/reference/umbraco-best-practices/umbracointernalredirectid
Think off it as umbraco's built in server.transfer

Hi dave,
That works, but it brings me out into the top level of the site where the page it's linked to.
There is no URL redirection which is good, but the navigation on that page is different.
Home / Employer / About us / How we work / Our people / Contact us --- clicking on contact us here (with redirect on it) will bring me out to the page here...
Employer / Graduate / Contact us --- (page beinig linked to)
Which will change the top navigation of the site.
Is there no way of making an alias of the page content?

Pages 29 and 30 might be helpful.

@Tony
Another way is instead of redirecting is to put a content picker on your doctype.
And render the content of the page picked.
Hello, I had the same problem and solved it with this solution as help:

So i created an extra root node "Shared Content".
On my textpages on the website I have an extra property to pick one or more of the "Shared Content" nodes.
With a macro the shared content is rendered on the original textpage.
