Both parent chapters and subchapters contribute to your total chapter count. Therefore, a parent chapter will be billed even if it serves solely as a collection for its subchapters.
Enable subchapters
When the Subchapter toggle is enabled for the parent chapter, all other chapters that have selected the parent chapter automatically display as subchapters.
- In the Chapter Dashboard, access the parent chapter and navigate to the Settings tab.
- Enable the Subchapter toggle located in the “Status” section, and then click Save.
Connecting subchapters to the parent chapter
-
For each subchapter, take the following steps to connect them to the parent chapter to automatically display them as subchapters on the parent chapter homepage:
- Open the subchapter in the Chapter Dashboard, and then click the Settings tab.
- Turn off the Sub-chapters toggle located in the “Status” section.
- Under the “Parent chapter” dropdown located in the “Lists” section, select the parent chapter the subchapter should be linked to
Displaying Subchapters on the Parent chapter page
Subchapters are not automatically displayed on the chapter page. To display the subchapter on the chapter page, add the page builder subchapter component to either the global page builder template or to the individual parent chapter page canvas.
Once added, the subchapters are displayed as “subgroups”. Pagebuilder admins can change the title displayed. Learn more about chapter builder here: Chapter Page Builder
Limitations
Joining a Parent Chapter
The default setting for chapters prevents users from joining a Parent Chapter, restricting them to subchapters only. This can be modified within the Chapter Page builder by adjusting the "Chapter is parent" display rule.
Subchapters as Parent chapters
Hierarchical content organization is possible through the subchapter configuration feature, which allows users to designate chapters as subchapters of parent chapters. However, it's important to note that subchapters cannot be designated as parent chapters.
