Comment: Migrated to Confluence 5.3

Excerpt

In Confluence, you can organise pages into a hierarchy of parent and child pages. Pages in such a hierarchy are called a page family.

Page families are a simple but effective way of categorising content. Confluence makes navigation of your site easier by providing links forward and backwards through the page hierarchy.

A parent page is at the topmost level of that hierarchy. Subpages are called child pages or children.


For example, in your organisation, you may have a space for 'Fun'. Under this space you could have the following pages:

Screenshot : Page Family

The 'Recreation' page in this hierarchy is the parent page and the 'Sports', 'Music' and 'Up Coming Trips' pages are its child pages. Together, they comprise a page family.

Confluence will only allow you to create page families that are a simple tree. This means that you can create any number of nested families but a child can have only one parent.
