In XperienCentral it is possible to create orphan pages. Orphan pages are pages without a parent. The pageService offers two methods for working with orphan pages. One method creates a new orphan page , one and another method moves a page to the orphan pages section. Orphan pages do not appear in the navigation tree of a website. Pages like "Contact", "Help" and "Search" are typical examples of orphan pages. Unlike all pages underneath the homepage, the pages in the root of the orphan pages subtree in the Site Structure widget can not be ordered.

Move a Page to the Orphan Pages Subtree
To move a page to the Orphan Pages subtree, use the method moveToOrphanPages. This method returns a boolean which indicates whether the move was successful. The method takes one argument: the name of the page to be moved to the Orphan Pages subtree. For example:

Page homepage = mySession.getXperienCentralApplication().getWebsites()[0].getHomePage();
Page newPage1 = myPageService.createAndInsertPage(homepage);
if (!myPageService.moveToOrphanPages(newPage1)) {
LOG.severe("Failed to move page: " + newPage1 + " to orphan pages.");
