How can I list pages and spaces in Page Tree?

thomas king

I am organizing all the pages and spaces within my organization. For the left side Page Tree navigation to make sense, some spaces would need to be subsidiary to other spaces.  My left-side navigation would look like this:

 

USA (SPACE)

>>>>>>>> Wisconsin (page)

>>>>>>>> California (SPACE)

>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> Marin County (page)

>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> Santa Clara County (SPACE)

>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> Cupertino (page)

>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> Sunnyvale (page)

>>>>>>>> Idaho (page)

>>>>>>>> Florida (SPACE)

>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> Miami-Dade County (page)

>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> Putnam County (page)

>>>>>>>> Iowa (page)

 

I can't use a plugin; my organization will never pay for, support, or approve that.  I want to use CSS, HTML, etc, which I can design and support myself. Also, I cannot modify existing structure. Spaces need to remain spaces.

Thanks!

Hey Thomas,

I'm not aware of a way to make sub-spaces, but have you thought about making this hierarchy in ONE space? You can use page restrictions to limit access to various children and grandchildren pages, but it's that ability to easily make hierarchies with pages in a space that is the key point.

That's what we do and it works quite well (though we try to limit the page restrictions as they have to be managed).

Will this approach work for you? if not, say because you need complex permissions for every state, maybe a master space whose homepage is created using bullets and subbullets,  but that's not the menu structure you desire, which you can get with the pages within a space approach.
