Convert a doc to a Category
How do I build a document tree?
It's easy-peasy! You can build document trees by a simple drag-and-drop. Click on any document, hold and move it under a different document of your choosing.
You will see that the document you moved is now a child document, whereas the one one above is the parent doc.
With Archbee, you can create a parent doc and nest multiple documents under it.
When you use a document as a parent, we recommend that you add content.
If you still want to group documents under Categories, you should convert a doc to a Category (which works like a folder - there is no content).
You can add as many child documents to a parent as you want.
We don't have a limit to the number of nested documents.
How to convert a doc to a Category [Folder]
Click the + to add a new document
Click on the three-dot menu ⋮ to open the Space/Document menu
Click on Convert to a category
Add a title to your category
Use drag & drop to nest documents under the Category
❗
When converting a doc to a category, all of its content will be lost.
Fold or expand categories/folders
When you add folders/categories to your documentation site, you may want to keep them folded or expanded, depending on your preferences or style guide you're following.
How does this work?
By default, a folder/category is expanded when you preview the live page after publishing.
If you want to fold the folder/category, follow these steps:
Click on the three-dot menu next to the folder/category name
Click Make folded by default on public
Publish your changes to preview the results
If you wish to go back to expanded view, click Make expanded by default on public.
