[Resolved] missing parent-child page attribute

[Tom]

It looks like the Page Attributes widget on the compose page section is missing the parent-child page attribute feature. All it has is Order.

I am trying to set a page as a child of the front page so that the top dropdown menu will show something like Home with About as a submenu dropdown. When I edit About page, I expect to see some kind of drop down menu in the Page Attributes widget with Home as an option.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

Hi Tom,

Instead of doing it that way, I highly suggest you build your menu in “Appearance > Menus”.

You can find more on that here: https://generatepress.com/knowledgebase/using-menus/

Let me know if you need more info 🙂

I considered that but the posts and blogs are not there. Now I suspect that they will be there after I actually publish them. As it is now, they are all draft while i get ready to replace my existing html pages as one cutover.

I will let you know if that is not the case so I will close this thread. Thanks!

Ah yea, they’ll need to be published in order to show up.

That’s most likely the reason you’re not seeing the parent option as well.
