On your pricing page, it states that organization trees are accessible to every paying member. So I bought a paid membership and can't access them. When I try to create one, I am told I have to pay for the highest level to have access to organization trees. That seems wrong. Can you please let me know how this can get resolved? Thanks.

Hi! The "organization trees" in the pricing page don't refer to the feature described in this guide, this would be the "CONTENT TREES & CHARTS" feature. The organization trees you get at any level are generated automatically from an article's connections and placed at the bottom of organization articles in the same format as the static chart screenshoted in this guide.   Hope this clears up the confusion, let me know if you have more questions!

Hi, I have connected multiple article together, but I don't get any organization tree, only a block list of the "children" article, not even the "grandchildren" article. See there: https://www.worldanvil.com/w/uusiwelt-asmodayluzbel/a/nikarok-article under "Silveria", there is multiple "children" article, but they don't show in "Nikarok". I've been looking all over internet for 2 days straight and can't find any clue as why it doesn't work or what i'm missing, any help??

Hi! I can't access the link you posted in your comment. Regardless of that, content trees are a Grandmaster+ feature, so you won't be able to use them as a Journeyman!

"I can't access the link you posted in your comment" sorry about that, I changed my articles without thinking about the link. But I don't want the Content Tree of Grandmaster+, only the basic Organization Tree accessible to all guild member that is suppose to create itself automatically, as shown at the 24th row of the table on https://www.worldanvil.com/pricing , between the "GUILD-EXCLUSIVE MAP MARKERS" and "CALENDARS" or shown there: https://blog.worldanvil.com/2019/08/31/development-update-rollup-for-end-of-august/

Oh! Sorry, I misunderstood. So, these trees are generated using the relationship drop-downs you can see in some templates. For example, for an organization template, it's the "Parent organization" drop-down, in the "generic" tab (click the "Show template specific prompts & connections" button to reveal it). The location of this drop-down depends on the specific template, but it should always be called "parent [something]" or similar.   Note that this is not the "parent article" option you have in the Navigation tab. This is an entirely different system! Let me know if that helps. If it doesn't, please send me a working link so I can check on it!

Can individual content items be made private or visible to only certain subscriber groups? I'd love to be able to create a public content tree where certain items (and presumably their children) are only visible to certain players/subscribers.

It is! While editing an individual item, open advanced options and scroll to the bottom to find the visibility options.

Hello, Is there a way to take an article out of an existing tree without deleting the article itself?   It seems like once you add an article that it's just stuck in that tree unless you delete it entirely.   Am I missing something? Any information would be most helpful.

Hi! To remove an article from a content tree:

  1. Edit the content tree
  2. Edit the item you want to remove
  3. On the right, uncollapse "other actions" and click on "delete item"
This will remove the article from the tree without deleting it.

How can I show the branches that extend to the right, like in this example from your instructional video at 9:58? For example, the Triad Board of Directors and the Director, Laboratory Staff. I can't seem to post an image here, but hopefully you can find it at 9:58 in the video.

Hi! I see what you mean. That format is not supported by our Content Trees, but you could use Whiteboard to use a more free-form structure: https://www.worldanvil.com/learn/whiteboards/whiteboards-guide
