Component in a component?

[Doug21784293dvss]

Hi There,

I have a simple breadcrumb component that I put together.  Example:  (Component 1)

Home page >  Task List

When I dive deeper in the site it looks like this:

Home page > Task List > Details

I would like to create second component (component 2) that "inherits" from Component 1.

I could then easily override the "Details" link in Component 2 with various pages that appear in details.  Example:

Home page > Task List > Notes

Home page > Task List > Documents

Home page > Task List > Communication

I have tried, and it appears to work, however in new Component 2 which effectively "inherits" from Component 1, the Home Page & Task List links break.

Is what I am doing possible?

Thank you.

XD allows me to do this, but it seems to break the links.

Hi, if I'm not missing something, I tried to simulate the situation here and links look like working in the way I did in my example. You can see the video: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8v4beyd7ywo4xos/component-in-a-component-test.mp4?dl=0

And the sample file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hecz9dsh52d63iv/component-in-a-component-test.xd?dl=0

Hope this helps.

Hi AkinGn,

Thank you for your response.  I was unable to open either of your links (500 error), but it did prompt me to try this again with a fresh cup of coffee and it worked exactly as you said.

Thank you!
