Child Pages

Child pages can be used to nest pages as children under other pages.

In the built-in plugin theme, these will display as indented links under their parent page in the navigation sidebar and will only display when the page, its parent page, or a sibling page is active.

Child pages may not have their own children.

To add a page as a child of another page, simply add the child page as an object in a children array property on the parent page's definition:

{
    "pages": {
        "groups": [
            {
                "title": "Example Group",
                "pages": [
                    {
                        "title": "Parent Page",
                        "source": "./path/to/parent-page.md",
                        "children": [
                            {
                                "title": "Child Page",
                                "source": "./path/to/child-page.md"
                            }
                        ]
                    }
                ]
            }
        ]
    },
    "theme": "pages-plugin"
}

The children property is optional. Not specifying a children property on your page definition is the same as specifying the property as an empty array.
