Writing
Organising pages
Groups, nesting, and drag to reorder.
The sidebar in the editor is the sidebar your readers get. Arrange it the way someone new to the project would want to read it.
Groups#
Groups are the section headings in the sidebar, like Writing on this site. Pages inside a group get its name in their URL:
/docspell/writing/organising-pagesMoving pages#
- Drag a page up or down to reorder it
- Drop it on a group header to move it into that group
- Drop it on the Pages header to bring it back to the top level
- Drop it on another page to nest it there, as deep as you need
Hover between two pages for a quick way to add a new one right there.
Links keep working#
DocSpell finds a page by the last part of its URL, so moving a page to another group doesn't break links people already shared.
