The Explorer page

The Explorer page allows you to view the a page’s children and perform actions on them. From here you can publish/unpublish pages, move pages to other sections, drill down further into the content tree, or reorder pages under the parent for the purposes of display in menus.

  • The name of the section you are looking at is displayed below the breadcrumb (the row of page names beginning with the home icon). Each section is also itself a page (in this case the homepage). Clicking the title of the section takes you to the Edit screen for the section page.
  • As the heading suggests, below are the child pages of the section. Clicking the titles of each child page will take you to its Edit screen.

  • As you drill down through the site the breadcrumb (the row of pages beginning with the home icon) will display the path you have taken. Clicking on the page titles in the breadcrumb will take you to the Explorer screen for that page.

  • To add further child pages press the Add child page button below the parent page title. You can view the parent page on the live site by pressing the View live button. The Move button will take you to the Move page screen where you can reposition the page and all its child pages in the site structure.
  • Similar buttons are available for each child page. These are made visible on hover.

Reordering pages

  • Clicking the icon to the far left of the child pages table will enable the reordering handles. This allows you to reorder the way that content displays in the main menu of your website.
  • Reorder by dragging the pages by the handles on the far left (the icon made up of 6 dots).
  • Your new order will be automatically saved each time you drag and drop an item.
