Hello Everybody,

I am a bit stuck and wanted to know if anyone has a solution to my problem. I realise that this may not be the most performant template but pls stick with me. This template is for a landing page that lists a set of components and links to their detail page. Each component has a bunch of detail pages linked to it using playa. Those detail pages are also linked to categories.

The template displays exactly what i want but my problem is forming the link inside the inner most playa loop. I need to use the {url_title} from the component loop.

{exp:channel:entries channel="component" dynamic="no"}
  <h3>{title} - {url_title}</h3>
<p>  {exp:channel:categories channel="detail" class="category_titles"}<br />
    </p><h5>{category_name}</h5>
<p>    {exp:playa:parents channel="detail" dynamic="no" category="{category_id}"}<br />
        <a href="http://{path=component/{component_url_title}/{category_url_title}/{url_title}}">{title}</a> <br />
    {/exp:playa:parents}</p>

<p>  {/exp:channel:categories}<br />
{/exp:channel:entries}

I have tried using stash:
{exp:stash:set name="component_title"}{url_title}{/exp:stash:set}
{exp:stash:get dynamic="yes" name="component_title"}

But i guess i am either using it incorrectly or misunderstanding the point of stash.

Anyone got any ideas? This must have come up before.

Thanks for your time and help
