Subpages — path to usability#

Subpages already work record- and route-wise (app.blento.page, routes under /[actor]/p/[page]), but there is no UI to create them, no way to navigate between them, and several metadata gaps. This doc lists everything needed to make subpages a usable first-class feature.

Creation & management#

  • Create-subpage UI
    • Pick slug → create app.blento.page/blento.{slug} record with empty sections
    • Initial name/description fields
  • Rename (display name) — write-back to app.blento.page
  • Change slug
    • rkey is immutable, so: create new record + migrate cards/sections (page field) + delete old record
  • Delete subpage
    • Cascade delete sections and cards where page === 'blento.{slug}'
  • Manage subpages panel (settings? edit bar dropdown?)
  • Slug validation
    • Reserved: self, edit, copy
    • Character restrictions matching rkey rules

Discovery & navigation#

  • Navbar / nav links on the main page (and likely all pages)
  • "Link to subpage" card type (picks a subpage, renders name/icon)
    • Arguably shares a data source with the navbar
  • Back-to-home affordance on subpages (logo/name tap? explicit home link?)
  • Subpages in sitemap / Contrail indexing — probably yes so shared links resolve fresh

OG / metadata per page#

  • Per-subpage OG image
    • og-new.png endpoint currently keys on actor only; include page in cache key + screenshot URL
  • Wire per-page title/description/icon from app.blento.page into <Head> on subpage routes

Editing experience#

  • Entry point from main-page edit → switch to editing a subpage (page switcher in edit mode)
  • Verify self-copy flow for duplicating one of your own pages

Navbar record placement — decision#

Three options for where navigation links live:

  • A. site.standard.publication/blento.self preferences — simplest, one record. But nav isn't really a "preference."
  • B. Extend app.blento.page/blento.self with a navigation array — clean, no new lexicon, couples nav to the main-page record.
  • C. New app.blento.navigation/self record — cleanest semantically, extra lexicon to maintain.

Picked: B. Main-page publication record is already the canonical site config, nav is sitewide and only edited from the main page. If per-subpage overrides ever become a need, migrate then.

Open questions (not required for v1)#

  • Page privacy / password gating
  • Per-page theme overrides
  • Page templates / duplicate-as-template
