Linking to KB articles

Tom Alday

We're starting to fill out our KB more and I'm wondering if there is a way to make the page for article (kb_view) present so it looks like part of the rest of the CMS, with our header and sidebar etc? Right now if I link to an article (ex. kb_view.do?sysparm_article=KB0010440) it just loads the content of the KB article and nothing else.

I know the kb_view UI page can be formatted but I'm not sure how to make it show with the same layout of our CMS.

Sorry I manually found my way to this type of URL. I found a public article on your ESS and plugged in the sysid for you.

Hello Tom,


I realise this is now quite an old discussion but did you ever get a solution to this question?


I've just posted a similar request this morning with no replies yet.


I'm sure all of this SN stuff will become clearer with time but until then I have to keep asking sill questions,


many thanks in advance,


Keiron.

Hi Tom,


We have same query from our customer, did you get any solution for that ?ii


Thanks,


Shivangi


Nope. Updates constantly broke any hack-y workaround I made. We have since moved away from the CMS and now use the Service Portal which doesn't have this problem.
