Welcome to La Cave du Trèfle: Where Order Meets Passion
Located in the heart of Ungersheim, **La Cave du Trèfle** is not just a point of sale for exceptional drinks; it is a temple dedicated to rigorous selection. We firmly believe that a successful customer experience, whether physical on our shelves or digital on our portal [Les Brasseries de l'Ill](les-brasseries-de-lill.html), relies on impeccable organization.
This is why we decided to share our structuring expertise with you. Why talk about Wix on a cellar's website? Because many of our Horeca partners (Cafés, Hotels, Restaurants) use this platform to showcase our products, much like [Restaurant La Flamme](restaurant-la-flamme.html) does brilliantly. Mastering sub-pages and hierarchies means offering fluid navigation to your customers, just as we organize our vintages by region and grape variety.
What is a Sub-Page? The Cellar Analogy
Imagine that your homepage is the entrance to our cellar in Ungersheim. Sub-pages are the specific aisles: "Craft Beers", "Fine Wines", "Spirits". Sub-sub-pages would be the shelves dedicated to the [Microbrasserie La Passerelle](microbrasserie-la-passerelle.html).
The Parent Page
It is the pillar. It carries the general theme and serves as a spiritual guide for all the content that follows. This is your "Beer Range".
The Sub-Page (Child)
It hierarchically depends on the parent. It refines the search. This is where you find "Alsatian Blondes".
Thematic Organization
A well-thought-out structure reduces cognitive load. The user finds what they are looking for in less than three clicks.
Practical Guide: Creating Your Sub-Pages on Wix
Menu Access
Open your Wix editor. On the left, click on the **"Menus and pages"** icon. This is where the heart of your digital architecture beats. You will see the complete list of your current pages.
The Magic Drag-and-Drop
To turn a standard page into a sub-page, simply select it and drag it to the right, just below the "Parent" page. Wix will instantly create a visual indentation confirming the hierarchy.
Reorganize Infinitely
You can change the order by dragging up and down. This flexibility is essential for adapting your menu to seasonal promotions or new arrivals at La Cave du Trèfle.
Overcoming Technical Limits
Navigation Depth
Wix naturally limits the visual display of sub-sub-pages in the main menu to avoid "visual chaos". Beyond two levels, the menu becomes unreadable on mobile and cumbersome on desktop.
- Tip: Do not exceed 2 levels of depth.
- Use internal text links for levels 3 and above.
Strategic Alternatives
If you have hundreds of references as in our [product shop](les-brasseries-de-lill/produits.html), use these methods:
- > Custom Dropdown Menus (Velo by Wix)
- > Anchor Systems for navigating a single page
- > Mega-menus via the Wix App Market

Consistency and Naming: The secret to success
The name of your sub-pages is crucial. Avoid vague terms like "Product 1". Prefer explicit names such as "Ensisheim Craft Pilsner" or "Alsace Pinot Noir".
Did you know?
Search engines give capital importance to URL structure. A clean URL like `domain.com/wines/alsace/pinot` ranks much better than a series of random numbers.
At La Cave du Trèfle, we apply this rigor to our physical labeling. Each bottle is a piece of information, each shelf is a category. This consistency between the physical and digital world strengthens your customers' trust.
Master Hidden Pages
Sometimes you want a page to exist without cluttering your menu. It's ideal for exclusive promotions or technical sheets reserved for regulars of [Bar Aux Délices du Houblon](aux-delices-du-houblon.html).
Hide from Menu
Go to "Page Settings" > "Layout" and uncheck "Show in menu". The page remains accessible via a direct link.
Internal Links
Create buttons or text links within your content to lead to these hidden pages. This creates a tailor-made user journey.
Mobile Design
On mobile, the "hamburger" menu must stay simple. Hiding secondary pages is a winning strategy for reading comfort.
Troubleshooting & Optimization
My sub-page isn't appearing?
Don't panic! Here is the Brewers' checklist:
- ✅ Check if it is marked "Hidden" in the settings.
- ✅ Ensure the parent page isn't itself hidden.
- ✅ Refresh the editor or republish your site.
- ✅ Temporarily move the page to reset the hierarchy.
The mobile menu is unreadable?
It's the #1 problem in 2026. The solution:
- 📱 Simplify the menu by only displaying top-level categories.
- 📱 Use clickable images on your homepage to redirect.
- 📱 Customize the mobile menu style separately from the desktop version.
Frequently Asked Questions: Structure & Cellar
Can we have more than 3 levels of sub-pages? +
Technically yes on the editor, but visually no in Wix's automatic menu. For deeper structure, use custom menus or "E-commerce" style category pages.
How to name my pages for SEO? +
Use specific keywords. Instead of "Wines", use "Alsace Red Wines - La Cave du Trèfle". This is how we position ourselves in Ungersheim.
Does La Cave du Trèfle deliver to individuals? +
Absolutely! We deliver throughout the Haut-Rhin. You can check our catalog on the [Products](les-brasseries-de-lill/produits.html) page.
How to hide a page while keeping it accessible? +
In the page settings on Wix, turn off "Show in menu". The page still exists but doesn't appear in the navigation bar. Link it via a discrete button.
What is the difference between an anchor and a sub-page? +
An anchor takes you to a specific spot on a same page. A sub-page is a different URL address (a new page). Anchors are perfect for [Restaurant La Flamme](restaurant-la-flamme.html) to navigate between Starters and Mains.
Can we automate the Wix menu? +
Yes, by default Wix adds every new page to the menu. For more control, use the "Manage menu" button and switch to manual mode.
Which third-party apps do you recommend for menus? +
"Advanced Menu" or "Mega Menu" on the Wix App Market are excellent options for content-heavy sites like beverage wholesalers.
Does a wine cellar's organization follow the same logic? +
Exactly. You start with the region (Parent), then the domain (Child), then the vintage (Grandchild). The structure is universal.
How to customize the style of dropdown menus? +
Click on the menu > "Design" (brush) > "Customize design" > "Sub-menu". You can adjust colors, fonts, and spacing there.
