Move a Web Page

By Howard Hayakawa

There are times when you want to change where a webpage is in your website.  There are two different meanings to this so we'll start with some definitions.
  • root-page: all the pages visible in a default navigation table are said to be at the ROOT level.
  • sub-page:  pages that are grouped with a root page are called sub-pages and are said to be 'under' the root-page.  Sub-pages can also have sub-pages.  When this kind of structure is drawn, it looks like a branch of a tree.  That's why it's called 'treeview'.
  • page list order:  the page names are displayed in a specified order.  This can also be considered the 'position' of a webpage.
This first set of instructions describes how to make a page into a 'sub-page' of another.
  1. After logging in, click "admin panel" at the bottom of navigation.
  2. Click treeview in the top control bar.
  3. Find the page you want to move in the navigation.  If it's already a sub-page, you'll need to  click on some of the + signs to see the 'lower levels' of pages.
  4. Click on the pencil next to the page name in navigation
  5. Click on "edit settings" in the upper left corner.
  6. Use the pull-down menu next to " Move Page to a new directory"
  7. Select the page you want your page to be 'under'.
  8. Click "update"
If you're not sure what 'under' means, just try one and see what happens.  You can always change it back.  That's what's nice about this system. 
 
The second set of instructions describes how to change page list order so a page name is above another.
  1. After logging in, click "admin panel" at the bottom of navigation.
  2. Click treeview in the top control bar.
  3. Find the page you want to move in the navigation and click the arrows to move the page up or down.
