How to do hierarchical pages?

[tracyreed]

I want to organize content/pages on my site hierarchically. There used to be a plugin called pelican-page-hierarchy but it has not been maintained and is not in the official plugin repository. What is the current best way to do this? Is there some metadata that I can put at the top of the markdown page along with Title, Slug, etc that would implement this? I've been googling but unable to find it. Thanks!

You can do this manually, by setting a "compound" slug for your page (e.g. level_1/level_2/page_slug). If you want the hierarchic links to appear on your site, you'll have to edit your theme to support them.

You can see how I've done it here --> https://github.com/minchinweb/minchinweb.github.io/blob/pelican/content/pages/fse/planes/c152.md

It works well enough, but it probably doesn't scale super well, and changing the hierarchy would be a pain...
