Questions the author answers

Can I use Nested Pages with other post types?

Yes! Visit Settings > Nested Pages > Post Types to enable the interface for any public post type. There are settings available for each post type, allowing customization of the admin to fit your needs.

Is this plugin compatible with the WPML plugin?

Please see the section titled “WMPL Compatibility” for details on using Nested Pages with WPML. In short, ordering and nesting functionality is available, but automatic menu generation across languages is limited. It is advised to use WPML’s menu synchronization for this purpose.

How do I access the WordPress “Pages” screen?

Click the “Default link in the page subnav, or on the Nested Pages screen. This item may be optionally hidden under the Nested Pages “Post Type” settings.

How do I save the order I create?

Post sorting and nesting is saved in the background after changes are made to the structure. If the “manual page order” option is enabled in the plugin options, you’ll need to click the “Sync Order” button at the top of the page to save.

How do I edit in bulk?

To bulk edit, check the checkbox on the pages/posts you’d like to edit. Once one or more have been selected, a “Bulk Actions” dropdown will appear, allowing you to either move the selected posts to the trash or bulk edit.

What about custom columns?

Custom columns are not currently supported by Nested Pages. To view custom columns, click on the “Default” link to view the native interface. If you are using WordPress SEO by Yoast, a page analysis indicator is shown.
