    • How to Use Existing Page as Top of a Structure

    Posted by Animal posts: 30

    My first attempt at Structures, and I have a simple question:

    All the doc I can find illustrates how to create a new Structure and then add new or existing wiki pages to that Structure. I'm using 9.x so there's also a cool feature for rearranging pages within a Structure. I'm looking forward to working with Tiki this way.

    BUT, using the doc to create a new Structure, I find that it creates a new wiki page to serve as the "top" page for the Structure. I don't want a new page. I want to use an existing page as the "top" page. You see, I've already been sort of creating pages in a kind of "mental structure", and now I want to move those pages into a literal Structure. I think I can do this for all subordinate pages, but don't know how to do it for the top page.

    Thanks!!

    Each structure requires a wiki page as its "head." This wiki page is named identically to the structure

    By default, Tiki will create this new wiki page when you create the structure.

    If you want to use an existing page as the "head" of the structure, just use the wiki page's name as the Structure ID when you create the structure.
