Pages & navigation

Structure lives in two Admin dialogs — not a separate admin site.

Pages (site map)

Admin → Pages opens the site map:

  • See slugs, titles, and visibility.
  • Create or open pages.
  • Set page visibility (Public / Editors / Admin) per row — same control as Admin → Page visibility on the current page.

New pages get a normal public URL under your site host. There is no draft/publish toggle for everyday CMS work; visibility grants decide who can see the page.

Admin → Nav opens the navigation tree editor:

  • Add, nest, reorder, rename, and remove menu items.
  • Point items at pages (or external URLs where supported).
  • Saves through the shared nav tools (patch_nav) — do not dig into widget JSON for the main menu.

Nav editing is structure work: use the Admin item (not a content click on the live menu).

Tips

  • Create the page in Pages, then link it in Nav.
  • Empty new sites: create a page first so Layout has somewhere to stand.
  • Footer or secondary menus, if your theme exposes them, follow the same Nav dialog pattern when wired as nav_items.
