Organize sub-pages without a clickable parent?

  • We’d like to organize our Pages under specific parent pages. For example, we’d like an FAQ section which will have as sub-pages, separate individual FAQ pages:

    FAQ
    –Site FAQ
    –Web App FAQ
    –Membership FAQ

    I’ve used CMS Page Tree View a lot and I know how to organize the sub-pages under one parent Page.

    My question is that we don’t want the parent FAQ page to be accessible or viewable on the site. We just want to organize the pages so we can put them together under different groups. The parent page isn’t a main landing page that would have any content on the site.

    Is there a way to organize into sub-pages and not have the parent be a viewable page? I thought of the possibility of a 301 redirect on the parent, but I’m not sure if there’s an easier way to do this…

    I have seen people do this in the past by creating a multi-level menu and using # as the link for the parent menu item/page. This seems to be less common lately as it does provide some accessibility issues; one being how people on mobile devices will get to those sub-pages.

    For menus, that makes sense, though I’m referring to WP pages themselves. For instance, the top level FAQ page won’t actually have content in it. We just want a way to group related pages in a heirarchy, but in this case don’t want the parent page to be visible.
