How to obtain a page's GUID in Composite C1 CMS?

Question

Question is pretty simple, I think.

How can I find out what the page GUID for a certain page in my Composite C1 website is?

I need it for RSS reading from a Blog within the CMS.

Answer 1

you can edit \Composite\content\forms\Administrative\EditPage.xml and add:

      <TextBox Label="Id" Help="For internal usage" Type="readonly">
        <TextBox.Text>
          <cms:read source="SelectedPage.Id" />
        </TextBox.Text>
      </TextBox>

so you will see page id during the editing.

Answer 2

The simplest way to get the ID of a page is to create a link to it (in the Visual Editor or a code editor) and then either switch to code view or view link properties. There you will see the GUID.
