### Step-by-Step Instructions

1. **Locate the Article to Move:** Navigate within a collection to find the article you wish to nest under a parent article.
2. **Open the More Options Menu:** Click the three-dot menu located on the right side of the article's entry in the list.
3. **Select "Move article":** Choose "Move article" from the dropdown menu to open the relocation interface.
4. **Choose a New Parent Article:** A window will appear showing the current location. In the "Choose a new location" section, you can browse or search for the article you want to set as the parent.
5. **Confirm the Move:** Click on the desired parent article from the list to move the current article under it. The article will now appear as a nested document under the selected parent.

### Common Questions (FAQs)

**What are nested articles?** Nested articles are articles that are organized in a parent-child relationship. This creates a hierarchical structure, similar to folders and subfolders, directly within your knowledge base.

**How many levels of nesting can I have?** You can have infinite levels of nested articles. This allows you to build out highly detailed and granular knowledge structures to match the complexity of your information.

**How can I see which articles are nested?** Expand a parent article in the sidebar to view its child articles.

### Troubleshooting Tips

* **I can't find the parent article I'm looking for:** Use the search bar in the "Move article" window to quickly find the destination parent article by its title.
* **I moved an article to the wrong parent:** Simply repeat the process. Select the incorrectly moved article, click "Move article," and choose the correct parent article or move it back to the top level of the collection.
