Confluence Docs 3.0 : What is a Page Family? This page last changed on Mar 24, 2008 by smaddox. 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. ##### RELATED TOPICS Viewing a Page's Family Viewing a Page's Location within a Space Viewing Hierarchy of all Pages within a Space Viewing the Children of a Page Creating a Child Page Moving a Page Changing Parent of a Page Working with Pages Take me back to Confluence User Guide
