Add page
Select the page you want to add a sub-page to before clicking on the button "Add page." Your sub-page will be added right underneath the page selected, however, you can still move your sub-page.

Import content
This feature enables you to upload files such as pictures, videos, HTML pages, and PDFs to the editor before integrating those new pages into the structure already existing. If you need to insert several files at once you have to zip them first before adding that new ZIP file as a new page. The structure within that ZIP file will be inserted in the menu. You can further choose if media files such as PDF or Word should be integrated as well.
Just select that page in the structure underneath of which your newly imported pages should be inserted. Click the button "Import page" in the title bar. A window will open from which you can then select the appropriate file.
