Is there a way to add the same subpage to more than one parent pages?

    Hi,

    I am trying to find a solution so that I can use the same subpage to more than one parent pages.

    For example, I have a subpage called ‘Massage’ and I would like it to appear under ‘Gym’, ‘Lose Weight’ and ‘Beauty’ pages.

    Is there a way to do that? I didn’t manage to come across a solution yet.

    Thanks!

    Unfortunately, no. Pages can only have one parent.

    I assume from your post that you want to have the ‘massage’ page appear under multiple items in a menu. Is this correct?

    If so, then you can use the Menu Creator (Appearance >> Menus ) to create any menu structure you would like. You just need to ensure that your theme supports menus, which would be surprising if it did not.

    Hope that helps.

    Hi dlozupone!

    Thank you for your reply.

    Yes, that’s exactly what my goal is. Would you mind elaborate a little bit on your suggestion? I’m always using ‘Menus’ for my primary navigation, but I’m new with WordPress and still trying to find my way around.

    Let’s say your menu is like this :
    – HOME
    – GYM
    . Our center
    – LOSE WEIGHT
    . Food
    . Tips
    – BEAUTY
    . Make up

    You have your static page, named “Massage”.
    Just go back to your menu, select this static page (massage), and click on “ADD”.
    This will add the “massage” page to your menu. Now, just drag & drop it to go under “GYM”.

    You’ll have :
    – HOME
    – GYM
    . Our center
    . Massage
    – LOSE WEIGHT
    . Food
    . Tips
    – BEAUTY
    . Make up

    Just do this process again and add massage to LOSE WEIGHT and BEAUTY.

    At the end, your menu will link to the “massage” page multiple time.

    The only drawback :
    – on a sitemap page, “massage” will only appear under the parent you mentioned.
    – if you have breadcrumb, a user could click on “massage” from the BEAUTY menu. But it the parent is “GYM”, breadcrumb could show “HOME -> GYM -> Massage”.
