i want to link child to parents. as it’s stands it’s linking flat straight to the whole page.
the only i way i found to add structure is to is to go into a child and tag it witth it’s parent name… but then i cant link it from the main page or it’ll be included in the graph
what am i doing wrong? it has to be easier and im just a potato lol
EDIT maybe using the contents page and tag each page with its parent and? since you can exclude Built-in pages?

Welcome to Logseq and the community @pinto !
I’m not sure what you want to achieve. You’ve posted a screenshot of an outline, but your question is about the graph view?
Maybe what you’re looking for is namespaces. Here’s an example from the (unorganized) graph view of my Book
page:
Here’s an article about namespaces:
And here’s a forum discussion about them:
Namespace is a touchy topic in logseq, as it informs hierarchy and people are trying to judge its worth in a relational database.
And there are two extremes of logseq users, the namespace lovers and naysayers.
The first camp extensively applies namespaces for organization, similar to how they would categorize notes or tags in traditional software.

i just dont want the first graph. its useless in my opinion or how my brain works.
this graph doesnt help me at all
i dont want the link of a subchild to link directly to the main page.
the second graph is much more useful imo
s there an easy way to do this? maybe some other software? plugin… but mobile doesnt support plugins
ill read the link you provided later today

i can do this in obsidian without using plugins by using Obsidian URL links instead of Markdown links.
> [Link text](obsidian://open?vault=YourVault&file=Name%20Of%20Note)
sort of. i still have to go into each note and tag/link it back to its parent
any suggestion on how to achieve this in logseq?
