I am attempting to utilize the example code from the links I mentioned earlier but update
it to reflect that the parent-child relationship is deprecated under the new Nested Pages
concept. This is the code I have so far:
{{velocity}}
#set($query="where doc.space='$doc.getSpace()'")
#set($results = false)
#set($results = $xwiki.searchDocuments($query, 10, 0))
#set($first = true)
#foreach($docname in $results)
#set($rdoc = $xwiki.getDocument($docname).getTranslatedDocument())
[[$rdoc.getDisplayTitle()>>$rdoc.fullName]]
#end
{{/velocity}}
It works to a point but the results look like this:
Test Child 2 <http://localhost:8081/xwiki/bin/view/Test/Test+Child+2>
Test Child 6 <http://localhost:8081/xwiki/bin/view/Test/Test+Child+6>
Test <http://localhost:8081/xwiki/bin/view/Test/>
Test Child 1 <http://localhost:8081/xwiki/bin/view/Test/Test+Child+1>
Test Child 3 <http://localhost:8081/xwiki/bin/view/Test/Test+Child+3>
Test Child 5 <http://localhost:8081/xwiki/bin/view/Test/Test+Child+5>
Test Child 0 <http://localhost:8081/xwiki/bin/view/Test/Test+Child+0>
Test Child 4 <http://localhost:8081/xwiki/bin/view/Test/Test+Child+4>
The ‘Test’ page listed represents the page containing the code which I would consider the
parent or container page and the nested pages are in no discernible order. These nested
pages were all generated with a script (if helpful I can provide the code) using an array
of names and a foreach loop, so I would expect that they were created in the order the
names were provided in the array which was ascending order. Also I notice that
alphanumeric sort order seems to be the default in Xwiki so I am a little surprised by
these results.
Any helpful advice you can provide to remove the container page and sort the results would
be appreciated.

Never mind, I found these after I posted:

I had search for this before but without including 'velocity' in the search I was
only getting the more basic instructions.

I am creating a knowledge base for a local municipal code which follows a typical book
hierarchy. I plan on using nested pages to create a pages hierarchy for navigating and
searching the code text at different levels. For example each end page would have a space
path like so:
Title 19.Part 2.Chapter 4.Section 100
Title 19.Part 2.Chapter 4.Section 200
etc.
Currently I am using a Velocity macro to create links to each child page and at the
chapter level I also start including the child pages. I then follow the links to make the
child pages. This works relatively well but has a couple of disadvantages. 1) It is slow
to create each page by repeatedly following the links, selecting the template and pasting
the next tier of code. 2) It hardcodes the child page names which if changed (say due to a
typo) must be updated by hand each time.
I am wondering if there is a more efficient way that I can automate the page and link
creation process. Ideally I would have a way to create the complete page hierarchy by
providing the names and levels of each page with the same code in each page providing a
link to each child of that page. Then I could paste the content text into each page at the
end of the branch. I have done something similar to this using Jeykell but that is much
simpler as it is static content based on the file structure. If I am going about this all
the wrong way I am open to other suggestions.
