Is there a way to assign Microcontent to a button or a link?  I would like to add a button or a link or something somewhere on my home page and topic page that will open a FAQ page that was created by using the MicroContent feature in Robohelp.   I'm using Robohelp 2022 3.93.  I've tried to set a hyperlink to the FAQ mc but it doesn't work it brings up a page that says File not found.

    Not something I've done, but I think this is what I would try to accomplish that.

     

    Publish the help file with the FAQ content, then go to the FAQ topic. Capture that URL and then use it to establish the link in your RH file. Once you understand the structure of the URL, you'll probably be able to just enter that without going to the trouble to publish.

    @JenniR_12  and thank you for giving me a great idea! We only have our FAQs in the TOC and as a tile on the home page. Now considering a link on the topic page for more visibility.

    Hi Jeff.  I have looked at Peter's page on MC.  I watched the video on his page and also  a webinar by Beth Gerber on Microcontent.  I haven't found the exact answer to my question, but amie68 has a great suggestion below.  I'll try her suggestion and see if that gets me where I'm wanting to go.  Thank you!!
