In the ContentDirector the IContentItemActionProvider.LinkChildren() should allow for Page items and not just Content Items.

Motivation

There is a need to link certain children of a page to that page a as referenced content items or page items. Similar to ILinkedPageActionProvider.StoreReferenceInAncestor().

There exists a pattern in K13 where children items are used in the display of a parent page. The children items are being migrated as Content Hub items, and we need to link those items to the patent page which will remain a page in the tree.

Proposed solution

The LinkChildren method should be updated to allow for Pages and not just Content Items.

//We need children of Page to be linked children in node order
if (source.TargetClassName == "Web.PageNode")
{
//HTML Block content item content type has NodeClassID = 6556
options.LinkChildren("HTMLBlock-Migration", source.ChildNodes!.Where(x => x.NodeClassID == 6556).OrderBy(x => x.NodeOrder));
}

This would be very helpful to have.

Agreed - it would help on multiple projects where this is the case
