Organizing content in Notion is a common concern, especially for users who manage a variety of projects or topics within their workspace.

This method allows users to create a structured hierarchy of information, making it easier to navigate and manage content.

Grouping pages in Notion can significantly enhance organization and productivity within your workspace. Automate the process with Bardeen to save time and ensure consistent organization structure.

Can you group pages in Notion?

Yes, you can group pages in Notion by creating subpages within a parent page. This method simulates a folder-like structure, allowing you to organize related pages under a common theme or project. Notion's design encourages nesting pages inside other pages, which can be done in several ways, including directly from the workspace sidebar or within an existing page.

Creating a Subpage

To create a subpage within an existing page, follow these steps:

  1. Open the parent page where you want to add a subpage.
  2. Type /page and select the "Page" option from the dropdown menu.
  3. select the "Page" option from the dropdown menu.
  4. Give your subpage a title and start adding content to it.
  5. Once you navigate back to the parent page, you'll see the newly created subpage listed within it.
2. Type /page and select the "Page" option from the dropdown menu. 3. Select the "Page" option from the dropdown menu.

Using the Sidebar and Breadcrumbs

Notion also allows for the creation and organization of subpages directly from the sidebar, which can enhance your workflow:

  1. Open the sidebar by clicking the ≡ button at the top left of your workspace.
  2. Hover over any existing page in the sidebar and press the + button that appears to the right of the page name to add a subpage.
  3. The new subpage will appear nested under its parent in the sidebar, reflecting the hierarchical structure.
  4. Use the breadcrumb navigation at the top left to understand the hierarchy and navigate between pages easily.
2. Hover over any existing page in the sidebar and press the + button that appears to the right of the page name to add a subpage.

Rearranging Page Structure

Notion offers flexibility in organizing your workspace. You can rearrange pages and subpages according to your needs:

  • To move a subpage out of its parent, click and drag it from the sidebar to your desired location.
  • To nest a page within another, simply drag it into the target parent page.

This drag-and-drop functionality allows you to customize the structure of your workspace, making it easier to manage and access your content.
