When referencing pages in the Morgan Report, you can create special pages that display the pages you're interested in as a single web page.

To do this, follow the following steps:

  • Indicate your page reference in the document you're editing as follows:
[[<start page>-<end page>]]

So if you wanted to create a special page for pages 873-892, you would use:

[[873-892]]
  • After saving the page with the reference, click on the red link presented, and do the following:
    • Determine your "true" start page (tsp) by subtracting 1 from any start page that is an odd number. For start pages that are even numbers, use that number as your "true" start page.
    • Determine your "true" end page (tep) by adding 1 to any end page that is an even number. For end pages that are odd numbers, use that number as your "true" end page
  • Insert the following code into your newly created reference page:
{{Page Nav|previous=<tsp-2>-<tsp-1>|next=<tep+1>-<tep+2}}
----
{{<tsp>-<tsp+1>}}
...
{{<tep-1>-<tep>}}
----
{{Page Nav|previous=<tsp-2>-<tsp-1>|next=<tep+1>-<tep+2}}

For example, for 873-892, the true start page would be 872, and the true end page would be 893. The code would look like the following:

{{Page Nav|previous=870-871|next=894-895}
----
{{872-873}}
{{874-875}}
{{876-877}}
{{878-879}}
{{880-881}}
{{882-883}}
{{884-885}}
{{886-887}}
{{888-889}}
{{890-891}}
{{892-893}}
----
{{Page Nav|previous=870-871|next=894-895}
