Description Jason Robb 2023-11-14 15:25:20 UTC
Currently when creating a page for the staff client using the Pages tool, the page gets categorized under Tools which reflects in the breadcrumbs and the left navbar on the page itself.

It would be nice if when creating a page for the staff client, one could define the logical context of the custom page and give it the associated breadcrumbs and navbar.

As an example, we have a page that curates a list of clean-up reports. Currently the breadcrumbs and left navbar are for "Tools" which is confusing for staff users. It would be helpful if when creating the page we could categorize it as "Reports" so that it would get the breadcrumbs and left nav used within the reports module.

I agree with Jason. Additionally, having Pages categorized under tools causes the Tools navbar to display on all of the Pages I create, which I would prefer to not see.

Sounds like a pretty cool idea to me.

At some point, I plan to start restricting the type of content that can be added using the Pages tool, so I'm pretty curious to hear about how people are using it... but that's out of scope for this bug. 

When the time comes, I'll add a question to Mattermost I think...
