Hey !

Sorry for my bad english. 😄

I try to insert the “title” and “text” from an other site on my website to the active site, but is not working 😪

```
 <?php echo $pages->find('3-praxisspektrum')->title()?>
 <?php echo $pages->find('3-praxisspektrum')->text()->kirbytext()?>

```

praxisspektrum is an visible site ! The active (open) website is not visible- maybe this is the problem ?

Have you an Idea ?

Try it without the `3`: `$page->find('praxisspektrum')->title()` or `page('praxisspektrum')->title()`.

For that praxisspektrum should be a top-level page, otherwise do `page('parent/praxisspektrum')...`

your idea was not working, sry.

\<?php echo $pages-\>nth(2)-\>url() ?\> \<?php echo $pages-\>nth(2)-\>title()-\>html()?\>

This works :):))

You sure your page is actually called anything like `praxisspektrum`?  
Cause the `page()` helper should work pretty reliable: [http://getkirby.com/docs/cheatsheet/helpers/page](http://getkirby.com/docs/cheatsheet/helpers/page)

Using `nth()` shouldn’t be the solution you settle for - not that it’s not working for the moment, but just cause it’s not actually the logic of what you want to do.
