A user wants to restructure their Shopify page URLs to create a hierarchical path (from /pages/lab-grown-diamonds to /pages/loose-diamonds/lab-grown-diamonds), treating one page as a “child” of another.
Initial Suggestion:
One responder recommended editing the page’s SEO settings to change the URL handle, but this approach doesn’t support the nested structure desired.
Technical Limitation:
Another contributor clarified that Shopify’s native architecture does not support hierarchical page URLs—all pages must exist directly under the /pages/ directory. Attempting to add a forward slash in the URL handle converts it to a hyphen instead (e.g., /pages/loose-diamonds-lab-grown-diamonds).
Potential Workaround:
A final response suggests URL customization may be possible and references a YouTube tutorial, though specifics aren’t provided in the thread.
Status: The core issue remains unresolved due to Shopify’s platform constraints, with one possible alternative solution mentioned but not verified.
Can we change the url of the child page
Shop Certified Loose Diamonds in Canada – Diamovida - this is the parent page
Lab Grown Diamonds in Calgary | Certified | Diamovida - this is the child page
We want the URL of child page like this - Shop Certified Loose Diamonds in Canada – Diamovida
We opted for Buddha Apps for our menu because the Dawn theme didn’t provide the desired mega menu options we needed.
Please let us know if its possible.

Hi @Diamovida
Unfortunately, it is not possible to directly create hierarchical URLs for pages in Shopify, such as changing the URL structure from https://diamovida.ca/pages/lab-grown-diamonds to https://diamovida.ca/pages/loose-diamonds/lab-grown-diamonds. All pages must reside directly under the /pages/ directory.
Shopify does not support nesting of pages under other pages in the URL path directly.
Thank you
