How do I link to additional Skuid pages from a community homepage

Ok, I finally figured it out. I added the pages as visual force pages, then added those pages into the force.com site. Finally I added those pages to the community profile. After I did all that I could get the pages to redirect using the following link style:

[community_URL]apex/[visual_force_page_name]


Now I just need to figure out how to make a URL parameter work in this format, as currently it’s producing an error.

Hi Laura–What kind of URLs are you using right now? Have you checked out our Merge Syntax, particularly the $Param?

Hi Karl,

Thanks for your reply. I don’t actually understand any of that… sorry! Here is the post where I detailed the specific issue:

https://community.skuid.com/t/url-parameter-wont-work-in-visual-force-page

The actual URL is breaking when I add &ID=xxxxxxx

This works, but shows no content:
https://gdsgroup.force.com/EPik/apex/EPik_Meeting_Detail

This breaks:
https://gdsgroup.force.com/EPik/apex/ui?page=EPik_Meeting_Detail&Id=a1i24000001hYoaAAE
as does
https://gdsgroup.force.com/EPik/apex/EPik_Meeting_Detail&Id=a1i24000001hYoaAAE

Yet it works in Skuid:

I’m guessing there must be a way to tell the visualforce page that the &ID= part of the URL means something… I’m just not sure how?

Thanks,

Laura

Also, I’ve tried non capitals too (e.g. id)

you should be able to navigate to any skuid page with this redirect url:

/apex/skuid__ui?page=NAMEOFPAGE

and you can append as many url params as you want, including &id=XXXXX

Hurraayy! It works. I knew it had to be simple. Thank you 😃
