Summary: Learn how to add a new program to a collection and create nested subpages. This allows you to build a structured sidebar navigation to effectively organize content like ministries, events, and resources.
Before You Begin
Locate Your Collection: Identify the main collection page (e.g., your "Ministries" page) where you want to add the new program.
Media Preparation: Have your title image, supporting slideshow photos, or video links ready before filling out the program details.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Navigate to your Tithely Site and log into your account.
Go to the specific Collection Page where you would like to add a new Program (e.g., the 'Ministries' page).
Click the FAB (pencil icon) located on the top-left side of the page and select Add Program.
Fill out the required text fields and upload your media.
(Note: The first photo you upload will act as the title image of the Program. All additional images will automatically appear as a slideshow).
Click the Save Program button.
Click the FAB (pencil icon) again while on the newly created program page and select Add Subpage to build out your sidebar navigation layer.
Click the + icon within the page editor after saving your subpage to insert new content blocks (such as text, photos, or files for download).
Troubleshooting & FAQs

/ministriesat the end of your website URL (e.g.,yourdomain.com/ministries). This will force-load the page so you can access the edit pencil.How do I ensure my new program appears in the site's main dropdown navigation? Creating a program organizes it within that collection's sidebar. If you also want it to appear as a link in your main website navigation bar, you will need to manually add it to your site's navigation menu settings.
