Body: <p>I'm trying to create a new parent subfolder (/dogs) with child pages (/dogs/*). The child pages will have content: <a href="http://www.example.com/dogs/german-shepherd" rel="nofollow noreferrer">www.example.com/dogs/german-shepherd</a>, <a href="http://www.example.com/dogs/chihuahua" rel="nofollow noreferrer">www.example.com/dogs/chihuahua</a>, <a href="http://www.example.com/dogs/pitbull" rel="nofollow noreferrer">www.example.com/dogs/pitbull</a>. There will be NO actual parent page <a href="http://www.example.com/dogs" rel="nofollow noreferrer">www.example.com/dogs</a> at this time. In other words, we do not want a true &quot;top level page&quot; for the subfolder. How should I go about setting this up in Craft? In case it's helpful to know, we already have the children pages but they're under different URLs built off the root so would need to also move those. For example: <a href="http://www.example.com/german-shepherd" rel="nofollow noreferrer">www.example.com/german-shepherd</a>. Thank you!</p>

  I'm trying to create a new parent subfolder (/dogs) with child pages (/dogs/\*). The child pages will have content: [www.example.com/dogs/german-shepherd](http://www.example.com/dogs/german-shepherd), [www.example.com/dogs/chihuahua](http://www.example.com/dogs/chihuahua), [www.example.com/dogs/pitbull](http://www.example.com/dogs/pitbull). There will be NO actual parent page [www.example.com/dogs](http://www.example.com/dogs) at this time. In other words, we do not want a true "top level page" for the subfolder. How should I go about setting this up in Craft? In case it's helpful to know, we already have the children pages but they're under different URLs built off the root so would need to also move those. For example: [www.example.com/german-shepherd](http://www.example.com/german-shepherd). Thank you!

  You do not need the parent page.
  
  If I understand it correctly:
  
  1. Create a section for your content named dogs. It could be a structure or channel (depends if you need it hierarchically or chronologically).
  2. At Entry URI Format you just type `dogs/{slug}`
  
  After this, every new entry of dog, will get the address `example.com/dogs/name-of-breed`
  
  And therefore, there is no example.com/dogs-page. But you could this page to another route, if you like. If not, there will be your 404 page shown.
  
  So `Settings -> Routes` could be helpful for this.
