I’d like to know how to insert content from one page on another page?

So If I had a landing page and I wanted to show the top 3 blog posts what would I do?

There are a few ways of nesting content from one page to another but you’ll need to tell me more about your blog articles i.e are they in Matrix as standard pages listed with an Asset Listing etc

Thanks NickyP - I want to nest articles based upon a metatag value. So if featured = yes then show the article.

Currently they are standard pages because I am not sure what an asset listing is :slight_smile:

I have just found the docs on nested content: https://matrix.squiz.net/manuals/designs/chapters/nest-content-design-area

But any direction would be very useful.

You may want to create a new Asset Listing Page specifically for nesting your articles with some dynamic parameters i.e a dynamic root node, how many articles and how you want them displayed. That way you can re-use your asset in multiple areas. Dynamic asset listing
You can see what I did which I think is something similar VC’s blog
