Advise on scripting

Hello,
I get in trouble and I would need your advice...
For a product manual, 95% of the information works perfectly with some conditions.
But as each manual is for a project, some parts are dedicated to the project (ex: the picture on the cover page of the manual).
At the beginning, I added a condition for each project, but we get more and more project, and I don't want to create hundreds of conditions (as hundreds of projects), just for one topic...
At the moment, as temporary solution, I have a specific TOC for each project as +/- 10 topics are specific to the project.
But it means hundreds of TOC as well in the futur => not the good solution!
So my idea would be to use a variable (with the project name), and have a dynamic link for my picture as following:
C:\Heremypath\Resources\**VariableWithProjectName**\cover.jpg
With this solution, I create a specific folder for each project, and my cover picture get always the same nameā¦
Do you this this could be a good solution?
If yes, I have no idea how to set up this solution (for the scripting part). Can you give me some ideaas, so I can search for the solution?
Thanks a lot for your help!
