Hi Marius, Thanks a lot for your help.
Actually, after browsing the forum, I found someone had a similar problem (or so I thought). And I thought that my solution was along the lines of setting the parent and parentId of the pages (while calling the API and as data passed in the call) . http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/when-creating-a-page-via-REST-it-doesn-t- appear-in-children-via-REST-td7601706.html Thanks again for your help and I'll check on it.
