Section within a Section

Originally, I used Sections controlled by buttons, but I discovered that using View Controllers proved to be a more manageable and user-friendly solution for both current and future site managers.

When it came to creating sub-pages within my applications, I experimented with various methods and found a practical solution through nesting Sections. In one example, I created a second section, "Section 2," within the Main View 2. Within this section, I successfully added three sub-views or pages.

This allowed me to resize the Main Sections and Sub Sections as needed and position the rows on top of the view sections when necessary. To achieve this, I first needed to create the row and view navigator outside of the Sections for better management.

 I wanted to share this approach with you, as it has provided me with a more streamlined and maintainable way to manage Experience Builder applications. This method allows for a clear structure of sub-pages and makes future updates and modifications to web apps more manageable. I hope you find this approach helpful in your projects as well.
