Organise pages with sub-pages and links

Build a wiki in Drime Pages with sub-pages, links between pages and a table of contents, and reorder your pages in the pages panel.

Updated Web

Pages lets you build a wiki: a home page that links to topic pages, which have their own sub-pages. Links between pages and a table of contents help readers find their way.

#Add a sub-page

  1. In a page, type /, then choose Sub-page.

    Drime creates a new page inside the current one and adds a card that links to it.

    The / menu of a page filtered on Sub-page
  2. Click the card to open the sub-page, then give it a title.

The card always shows the current title of the sub-page, even after you rename it.

  1. Search for the page, then select it.

#Add a table of contents

Type /, then choose Table of contents. It lists the headings of the page and updates as you edit them. Click an entry to jump to its heading.

If the page has no heading yet, the block shows Add a heading to the page and it will show up here.

#Organise the pages panel

The pages panel, on the left of Tools > Pages in the web app, shows your pages as a tree. Click the arrow next to a page to show or hide its sub-pages.

Right-click a page to open its menu:

Menu item

What it does

Open

Opens the page.

New sub-page

Creates an empty sub-page inside it, and unfolds the page so you see the new one.

Rename

Lets you type a new title in the panel. Sub-page cards and links show the new title.

Duplicate

Creates a copy named after the page with (copy) at the end, right below it. Only the page is copied, not its sub-pages.

Add to favorites

Pins the page to the Favorites section at the top of the panel. On a favorite, the item reads Remove from favorites.

Move to trash

Moves the page and all its sub-pages to the trash, after you confirm. See Restore a page from the trash.

The right-click menu of a page in the pages panel

#Move a page

Drag the page in the panel:

  • drop it on the top or bottom edge of another page to place it above or below;

  • drop it onto the middle of a page (the page is highlighted) to make it a sub-page of that page.

Its sub-pages move with it. You cannot drop a page into one of its own sub-pages. Pages in Favorites cannot be dragged: move them in the tree below.

#Restore a page from the trash

A page moved to the trash takes its sub-pages with it. Pages stay in the trash for 30 days, then they are deleted for good.

  1. At the bottom of the pages panel, click Trash.

    You can also use the Trash tab of the Pages home page.

    The Trash window of Pages with a trashed page and its Restore button
  2. Next to the page, click Restore.

    The page goes back to its place, with the sub-pages that were trashed together with it.

The trash only lists the top page of each trashed group: restore it to bring back the sub-pages inside. To remove pages for good, use Empty trash, or the delete button next to a page in the trash. After you confirm, this cannot be undone.

#If it doesn't work

What you see

What to do

A sub-page disappeared from the panel

Its parent page was probably moved to the trash. Restore the parent: the sub-page comes back with it.

A restored page came back without one of its sub-pages

That sub-page was moved to the trash on its own, earlier. Restore it separately from the trash.

The duplicate has no sub-pages

Duplicate copies only the page. Create the sub-pages again, or move existing ones under the copy.

You cannot drop a page where you want

You are dropping it into one of its own sub-pages, or dragging it from Favorites. Drag it in the tree instead.

You cannot rename, move, duplicate or trash a page

The page was shared with you without edit rights. Ask its owner for edit access.

Could not restore pages

The restore failed on the Pages home page. Try again; if it keeps failing, contact Drime support.
