# Pages

# Pages

A page is the core unit of Collabase Docs. It can hold any kind of documentation — a technical specification, a runbook, a meeting record, an onboarding guide. Pages are organized in a hierarchical tree inside their Space and can be nested to any depth.

## Page types

| Type         | Description                                                                                                   |
| ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Standard** | General-purpose rich-text document. The default type for most documentation.                                  |
| **Blog**     | A post with a publish date, displayed in reverse chronological order. Suitable for announcements and updates. |
| **Canvas**   | An infinite freeform drawing surface. Suitable for diagrams, wireframes, and visual planning.                 |

## Page width modes

| Mode       | Effect                                                         |
| ---------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Narrow** | Constrained reading width. Best for long prose documents.      |
| **Wide**   | Default width. Balanced for mixed content.                     |
| **Full**   | Full browser width. Best for pages with wide tables or embeds. |

Change the width mode from the page options menu (the `...` icon at the top right of the page).

## Creating a page

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the target Space">
    Navigate to the Space where you want to create the page using the left sidebar.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click + New Page">
    Click the **+** icon next to the parent page in the tree where you want the new page to appear. To create a top-level page, click **+ New Page** at the bottom of the page tree.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter a title">
    Type the page title. Press Enter or click the editor body to begin writing.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start editing">
    The editor opens immediately. Content is auto-saved when you move focus away. You do not need to save manually.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  To create a page from a template instead of starting blank, click **+ New Page** and then select **From template** in the dialog that appears. See [Templates](/docs/templates) for details.
</Note>

## Editor features

The Docs editor supports the following content blocks:

| Block type      | How to insert                                             |
| --------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| Heading (H1–H3) | `/heading1`, `/heading2`, `/heading3` or `#`, `##`, `###` |
| Bulleted list   | `/bulletedlist` or `-` followed by a space                |
| Numbered list   | `/numberedlist` or `1.` followed by a space               |
| Task list       | `/tasklist`                                               |
| Table           | `/table`                                                  |
| Code block      | `/codeblock` or ` ``` `                                   |
| Callout         | `/callout`                                                |
| Image           | `/image` or paste/drag a file                             |
| Embed           | `/embed` then paste a URL                                 |
| Divider         | `/divider` or `---`                                       |
| Quote           | `/blockquote` or `>`                                      |

Type `/` anywhere in the editor to open the full slash command menu and search for any block.

## Version history

Every time you leave the editor (on blur), a version snapshot is saved automatically. You can view and restore any previous version at any time.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open page history">
    Click the `...` options menu at the top right of the page, then select **Version History**. A panel opens on the right showing all saved versions, ordered from newest to oldest.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select a version">
    Click any version entry to preview its full content in the main editor area. The version's author and timestamp are shown next to each entry.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Restore the version">
    Click **Restore this version** at the top of the preview. The current page content is saved as a new version first, then the selected version becomes the active content. No content is ever permanently overwritten.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Restoring a version does not delete the current version — it saves it as a snapshot first. You can always return to it later.
</Note>

## Permissions

Page permissions are set individually on each page. They are **not inherited** from the parent page or from the Space. If you restrict a parent page, child pages remain accessible to anyone who had access before unless you restrict them separately.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open page permissions">
    Click the `...` options menu at the top right of the page, then select **Permissions**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Switch to restricted access">
    By default, the page uses the Space's access settings. Toggle to **Restricted** to define a custom access list.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add users or groups">
    Search for a user by name or select a group. Set their permission level to **View** or **Edit**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save">
    Click **Save permissions**. The change takes effect immediately.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  Restricting a page does not automatically restrict its child pages. Each subpage must be configured separately if you want to limit access to the whole subtree.
</Warning>

## Comments

Pages support two types of comments.

| Type               | Description                                                                                                       |
| ------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Inline thread**  | Anchored to a specific selection of text in the page body. Select text, then click the comment icon that appears. |
| **Footer comment** | Appears at the bottom of the page, below the content. Not anchored to specific text.                              |

Both types support threaded replies. Comments also have a **visibility** setting:

| Visibility   | Who can see it                                                             |
| ------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Internal** | Team members only (Space members with at least View access)                |
| **External** | Shareable with external parties (visible when the page is shared publicly) |

## Labels

Labels are tags you can add to any page for organization and filtering.

* Click the **Labels** field in the page's information panel to add or remove labels.
* Labels are free text — type a new label name to create it, or select an existing one.
* Multiple labels per page are supported.
* Use labels to filter pages in the Space sidebar or in search.

## Attachments

You can attach files to any page without embedding them in the content.

* Click `...` → **Attachments** to open the attachments panel.
* Drag files into the panel or click **Upload** to add files.
* Attached files are listed at the bottom of the page and downloadable by anyone with view access.

## Exporting to PDF

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the export option">
    Click `...` → **Export as PDF**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm the export">
    A PDF is generated from the current page content and downloads to your browser automatically.
  </Step>
</Steps>

The PDF export includes the page title, body content, and tables. Embeds and interactive blocks are rendered as static images where possible.

## Moving a page

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the move option">
    Click `...` → **Move page**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select the new parent">
    Choose a new parent page in the current Space, or select a different Space entirely. The page tree picker shows all Spaces and pages you have edit access to.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm">
    Click **Move**. The page and all its children are moved to the new location. Existing links to the page continue to work.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Archiving and deleting a page

<Steps>
  <Step title="Archive the page">
    Click `...` → **Archive page**. The page is removed from the sidebar tree but is not permanently deleted. Archived pages can be found via **Space Settings → Archived Pages** and can be restored at any time.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Permanently delete">
    From the archived pages list, select the page and click **Delete permanently**. This cannot be undone.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  Permanent deletion removes the page, all its versions, all its comments, and all its attachments. This action cannot be reversed. Archive the page first if you are not certain.
</Warning>
