I wonder if you could make Have You Missed...? into a named entry?
<./>HaveYouMissed</.> for example.

It might make life easier smiley - smiley

I'll ask the techies if this is possible.

We have to ask the DNA team to do it if we want named entries, because it affects *all* the DNA sites (and not always for the better!). smiley - smiley

Hmm, that could be a problem... you could call it h2g2-HaveYouMissed to make it clear it's an h2g2-only thing, I suppose...

It's more a case of making sure than *all* the DNA sites use the same names for their named entries. With something like the <./>HouseRules</.> it's really important that all the sites use the same name, otherwise it can cause problems with links in the text in the entry box and other places.

It's still very early days with this feature to be honest, so if it's a case of doing something that might involve the whole of DNA, I'd be reticent to push for it.

Let's see how the feature goes and maybe, if it takes off, we'll be able to look at it becoming permanent, with its own Help Page.
