Below is the different url of different pages and I am using https://int-apps.tuvsud.com/GCN/Pages/*  in Project variable so that all the objects will map under single page.
https://int-apps.tuvsud.com/GCN/Pages/Default  

https://int-apps.tuvsud.com/GCN/Pages/List

This example is based on the website https://www.w3schools.com. I've built the name mapping hierarchy structure shown below.

URL https://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp

URL https://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp

Though both pages contain a Title and two buttons "< Home" and "Next >". They belong to different pages of the hierarchy - you have to create individual components so that they have unique relationships between parent and child.

You can modify the hierarchy structure of Aliases, so that you can access the components like so

Aliases.pageCssTutorial.linkHome
Aliases.pageCssTutorial.linkNext
Aliases.pageJavascriptTutorial.textnodeTitle

If the domain name changes https://www.uat-w3schools.com or https://www.reg-w3schools.com then I can use wildcard to replace uat or reg with "*" so it becomes https://www.*-w3schools.com.

It's vital the get the name mapping structure correct, for TestComplete to identify the correct objects. Each child object, must have a parent object.

    So, you mean to say first I will map all the pages and then I will replace its url with wildcards in name mapping, so in my case it can be as below. Also does this wildcard work in constant mode also like shown in SS.
