Having sub-subpages in OneNote

When you’ve been using a software package for a long time, you get set in your ways about what it can and cannot do. Somewhere along the way, I became certain that you could only have one level of subpages in a Microsoft OneNote section. I even told a group that during a demo. Someone was kind enough to let me know that you could make a sub-subpage! I wasn’t the only person on the call that wasn’t aware of that feature, so I’m sharing it here “just in case” you didn’t know it either…

Here’s an example of three pages in a section that are all at the main page level:

To promote the “Subpage” page, right-click on the page and select Make Subpage:

So far so good… I promoted the Sub-subpage to a subpage also, thinking that was as far as I could go. But when I right-clicked on it again, I found I could again make it a subpage, effectively making it a sub-subpage:

Here’s the result!

Before you ask… no, you cannot go any deeper than this. However, I have no doubt a few years from now I’ll stumble over the fact that a change was made and you have more subpage levels. 🙂

  1. What version of OneNote are you using? The “Make Subpage” is grayed out when I right click on a Subpage.
