I cannot seem to add Pages in the Hidden Pages Area.  
The Divider with the + does not pop up inbetween Pages.

Edit: I noticed that I also cannot move a hidden page into a hidden folder.  
Or move a visible page into a hidden Folder.

The only way to get something into a hidden folder was to unhide the folder, drag the hidden page into the invisible folder and then hide the folder again.

Hey @_4N, you should be able to hide a page by simply dragging the page into the **Drop here to hide** blue box at the bottom or by clicking the **Show in sidebar** toggle in the right side panel. The **Add a page here** option you’re referencing is only available for live pages.

 ![hide page](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/noloco/original/1X/ef1978a1055a2dfc7f3af491b63ab37fb2c61639.png)

Regarding adding a page to a hidden folder, that’s actually not an option. You may have to unhide the folder, add the page to it and then hide the folder afterwards.

Yes I know the Drop areas, what I wanted to do is create a Page right in the hidden area.

Regarding the impossibility of moving pages into/from a Folder when they are hidden, that is quite unfortunate and doesn’t seem to make a lot of sense from a UX Standpoint.
