Subpages at work :)

Have you been creating a lot of static pages on your blog? Maybe you have been somewhat using your blog more as a content management system or something. If you are, then you know that it’s really important to show subpages on your blog and make sure that the information would be accessible.

All about Subpages

If you would like your list of subpages to appear on your sidebar, especially when your blog visitor is on a parent page, you could use this widget. What happens is that every child page will be listed down. This is really handy when it comes to navigating through the pages. No wonder! It is called Subpages, after all.

You could probably do some funky things with WordPress template tags but if you are not familiar with them, this is the plugin for you. If you have been writing a novel for online consumption, or maybe even a guide for travelers, you could help your readers move from one chapter to the subchapters. Another nice thing about this is that Diwaker Gupta has added an option that shows the siblings of the static page you are currently viewing.

Managing pages could sure be a hassle. However, if your blog is some kind of resource especially if you are using it as you teach, it could be the niftiest plugin ever!
