Create new page - Create child page

Modified on Thu, 2 Apr at 4:20 PM

In this article, you'll learn how to create a child page in Q.wiki. Child pages structure your management system and enable a logical hierarchy of content.

Prerequisites

  • You have write access to the parent page.
  • You know which parent page you want to add the new page under (e.g., "Hiring Employees").

Step-by-Step

Step 1: Open the parent page

Open the page under which you want to create a new page. In this example, we'll use "Hiring Employees" as the parent page.

Step 2: Click "Create Child Page"

Click on Create Child Page. The new page will automatically be placed below the current page in the hierarchy.

Tip: If AI is enabled in your Q.wiki, you can use an AI suggestion.

Step 3: Choose a page type

A dialog box appears where you can choose between two page types:

  • Wiki page: For content you write directly in Q.wiki
  • File page: For files you manage in Q.wiki
Dialog box for choosing page type

Step 4a: Create a wiki page

If you choose Wiki page, you must select a content template. Then click Create Page. The new page will be created based on the template and assigned to you as the page owner.

Step 4b: Create a file page

If you choose File page, you can add your file in two ways:

  • Drag and drop the file directly into the field
  • Click on the field and upload the file using the file browser

Then click Create Page.

Step 5: Page is saved

The new child page is automatically saved and appears in the lower section of the parent page. Pages that are already linked on the parent page are marked with a green checkmark.

Alternative: Create a placeholder link while editing

You can also insert a placeholder link while editing a page. Use the link type New Q.wiki Content. You can use this link later to create a new wiki page – the new page will be automatically linked in the correct context.

Next steps

After creation, your page is saved in Draft status. Click Save in the top right to ensure all changes are saved.

Important: Your new page will then go through the approval workflow. For more information, see the Approval Workflow Guide.
