I guess what Semaphor is saying is that there is no nesting. Taking a look at "docs" as an example, you have these entries in "Top Pages" from https://plausible.io/plausible.io:

- /docs/self-hosting 4.1k 5.7k 67%

- /docs/ 2.1k 2.7k 30%

- /docs 1.6k 2.1k 15%

- /docs/self-hosting-configuration 1.2k 1.8k 57%

You have to select "/docs/self-hosting" directly, and once you done that, you don't see the subpages of that page anymore. If you select "/docs" you only see docs, not "/docs" + subpages so you can see the most popular blogpost and only pages under "/docs"

We haven't set it for our docs on the live demo but we have set it up for /blog this exact use case. On our live demo scroll all the way down to Goal Conversions and click on "Visit /blog*". This gives you a filtered dashboard and on that filtered dashboard if you look at the Top Pages report you will see only the blog posts ranked by popularity and no other content that's outside of the /blog.

Ah, now I understand. Seems a bit convoluted, but then so is almost everything in GA ;)

Agree. This started as a feature for our custom events/goals as people wanted to see conversions on dynamically generated checkout pages for ecommerce. But turns out it is useful for the use cases we're discussing here too so we plan to make it easier to discover/work with in the future.

Wow I just learned about this feature. I felt if that was the intended use case then Goal Conversion should be ( or at least have the option to allow it ) at the top above the graph.

Right now if you want to drill into /blog you have to scroll down to the bottom and scroll back up again to see the results.

[markosaric]

yeah, i know what you mean. we'll see if we can somehow put some kind of a custom filter on the top of the dashboard to allow this usecase or perhaps add a search box to the top pages report. need to decide which way is best.

Hey! I remember writing that ticket. I really appreciated how you handled the matter back then and left myself a note to come back in 6 months, rather than look for something else.

[markosaric]

thanks, glad to hear that! and hope you enjoy this feature!

I'm about to have another look at it
