Fulltext Search vs. Pagetypes, how to set up a Pagetree

[effkay]

The fulltext search is scoped to search in content pages only.
As we set up sites, usually the home page is a navigation page and would get ignored.
Also, It is not clear wether using home as a navigation page is the best way to go.

... in general, we are lacking clear instruction on what the page types do, and how to best set up a website with qBrick.

Current situation of page types:

• redirect pages redirect somewhere, do not appear in search results
• navigation pages are used as top level of a page tree hierarchy. Slug does not appear in children's urls, and navigation pages are also not present in search results
• content default page type
• custom: used for mixing custom controller with qbrick page

Suggestion:

Navigation page only makes sense like it is implemented right now at the root level, so:

• make navigation page pass down slug except when it is in the root level
• when reaching a navigation page not on the root level, it redirects to its first child page
• include top level navigation pages in fulltext search scope
