Manage-pages:Edit page parent

From Site Foundry

What is a page parent?

The majority of websites are based around a hierarchical order of pages that go to make up a main menu structure. Therefore in the menu structure, it may be said that one menu item is a child of another menu item (parent) by nature of it sitting underneath in a particular menu structure (in the example below, Things to do is said to be a child, and book an hotel a a grandchild of Rotterdam).

For example, the following is a nested unordered list structure for a website:

• Amsterdam
• Rotterdam
  • Things to do
  • Places to eat
    • Book an hotel
  • Cruises
• The Hague

With this simple structure displayed at the top of each page of the site, it is possible for a user to then browse through the site, creating logical connections between pieces of information.

Editing a pages parent

1. To edit a pages parent, click on the Manage pages menu item on the top of the page.
2. Click on the name of the page that you are looking to edit.
3. Click on the dropdown labelled parent.
4. Select the page that you would like this page to be a parent of.

Once you have made your selection, the page will be refreshed, and the edited page will be made a child of the page that you have selected.

Note: Currently the main navigation only provides for three levels of navigation.
