# Create a new page

A page is a single document in your docs: a title, a body, and a URL made from its collection's slug plus its own. Every page belongs to exactly one collection, so you create a page _from_ a collection – or from another page, if you want it nested underneath.

New pages always start as **Draft**, which means nobody but you can see them until you publish.

## Create a page in a collection

1.  In the workspace editor sidebar, hover the collection and click the ⋮ menu.
2.  Click **New Page**. A row named _untitled_ appears in the collection and the editor opens.
3.  Replace the title in the **Enter Title** field at the top.
4.  Write the body, then click **Save as** and choose **Draft** or **Publish**.

New pages are drafts. Nothing you type is public until you pick Publish from Save as.

## Create a child page from a page row

To nest a page under an existing one, open the ⋮ menu **on the parent page's row** and click **New Page** there. The new page is created as a child of that row rather than as a sibling.

The item only appears on rows that can take children, so if you don't see **New Page** in a page's menu, you are looking at a row that can't be a parent. You can also nest an existing page later by dragging it – see [Edit and Manage a page](/docs/managing-pages/edit-and-manage-a-page).

## What "untitled" means

Both routes create the page immediately, named `untitled`, with a slug like `untitled-3` and status Draft. That is a real, saved row in your sidebar, not a placeholder – which has two consequences:

*   **Dewstack will not let you drag anything until it is saved.** With an untitled page in the workspace, moving a page or collection is blocked with _"Unable to move the Collection or Page!"_ Save the page as a draft first.
*   **Renaming the page does not rename its slug.** The title and the slug are independent fields. A page you titled "Authentication" keeps the URL `.../untitled-3` until you change the slug yourself in **Settings** on the page's ⋮ menu.

Set the slug before you publish

The slug is what people bookmark and what search engines index. Fix it while the page is still a draft; changing it after publication breaks every existing link to the page.

## How nesting maps to URLs

A top-level page sits directly under its collection:

/docs/<collection-slug>/<page-slug>

A child page carries its parent as a middle segment:

/docs/<collection-slug>/<parent-slug>/<child-slug>

So a page called "Refresh tokens", nested under "Authentication", in the "API Reference" collection, is served at `/docs/api-reference/authentication/refresh-tokens`.

Two things follow from this. First, URLs never contain a space (tab) name – moving a collection between tabs leaves every page URL untouched. Second, **the public site addresses one level of nesting only**: collection → page → child. The editor will let you drag a page under a child, but a grandchild does not get its own URL, does not appear in the reader's sidebar, and is left out of your sitemap. Keep your tree two levels deep inside a collection.
