I want the users to be able to add a page only in a particular sub folder i.e. [site.co.uk/books/book](http://site.co.uk/books/book).  
Is this possible and can anyone tell me how I achieve this please?

Kirby has the concept of pages section where you define a parent page and the allowed templates/blueprint for subpages under this page, e.g.

```auto
sections:
  type: pages
  headline: Books
  parent: kirby.page('books')
  layout: cards # or list or cardlets

```

You can put this section in your `site.yml` so that it appears directly on the dashboard, and into the parent books page blueprint.

> **[Pages section](https://getkirby.com/docs/reference/panel/sections/pages)**
>
> List and edit subpages

> **[Page blueprint](https://getkirby.com/docs/reference/panel/blueprints/page)**
>
> Page blueprints are located in /site/blueprints/pages and control the Panel setup and form fields for pages.

> **[Site blueprint](https://getkirby.com/docs/reference/panel/blueprints/site)**
>
> The Site blueprint is located in /site/blueprints and controls the Panel setup and form fields for the site/dashboard.

Other sections should then not be allowed to use this blueprint to create pages.

Or do you mean that adding pages shouldn’t be possible anywhere else?

Then you can set `create: false` on a pages section:

```auto
sections:
    pages:
        type: pages
        create: false # prevent adding pages to this section
        templates:
          - about
          - home
          - default

```

Yes, that’s exactly what I was meaning, thank you. It seems to be working fine now.
