Xavier Hanin commented on IVY-384:
----------------------------------

"It's also strange to see some leaf having no children"
Sorry, I don't catch what you mean here?

"That would also accelarate the navigation to a low level leaf as no intermediate page will have to be loaded."
Now the navaigation to a low level leaf is much easier than with the previous site, since the navigation tree on the left can be browsed entirely without opening a new page: click on the arrow on the left of the page title and it will show its children, and so on, so that you can open a low level page from the top level one. Maybe what can be done is document this feature since it doesn't seem to be obvious.

Generally speaking, I don't know if others share your feeling that pages with children should have no content. Personnaly I like it like that, but if many others think like you, I agree to change.

So, other Ivy users, what do you think?

> The documentation menu is a tree menu.   That natural and nice.  However, it's is quiet unexpected to have a page associated with the 'non leaf' nodes.  It's also strange to see some leaf having no children.  The reader is asking himself 'why place this additional level'.
> I think it should be better to have the intermediate nodes only used to expend (or collapse) the tree menu, and to move the page associated with the intermediate nodes to a leaf.  That would also accelarate the navigation to a low level leaf as no intermediate page will have to be loaded.
