Once you start getting a larger number of page urls defined in a project, the existing page configuration UI becomes increasingly less user friendly to use (a bit like trying to select Perspective Styles in the `styles.classes` dropdown from a list of 50+ styles.. but that's another feature request 😅) What I'd like to see is more of a tree structure that splits the urls into a hierarchy of folders with the ability to add new pages into the folders. It'd also be a nice feature to be able to auto-construct the page url based on the primary view's path, lowering case and replacing spaces with - or \_. E.g. viewPath: Winery/Site Services/Refrigeration/Page 1 auto pageUrl: winery/site-services/refrigeration/page-1 One of the biggest issues at the moment is that when you have a large page url list and you go to add a new one, it gets auto-named to "/new-page" and it doesn't get auto-selected to edit it, nor does the list bring it into view automatically so you have to go searching for it... very annoying 😕 ---

So would the folders be part of the page `path`? In your example, you'd have folders `winery`, `site-services` and `refrigeration`, with `page-1` inside the `refrigeration` folder? Or are the folders just for organization? ---

Yeah I think that's how I'd imagine it. The pages would be the end nodes with a different icon. I'm planning to dev a view I can use in the meantime ---

I've done that a few times before as well... customer: "I can't access this page anymore?", me to the Designer: 😒 ---

One issue would be that URL parameters wouldn't work the same (i.e. `/winery/:winery_id/tank/:tank_id`). ---

I think these could still be incorporated into it though, although I haven't really thought it through in detail 🙂
