# Page Types — psiLynx

Categorise your URLs into groups — product pages, blog posts, landing pages — and analyse performance by category instead of one URL at a time.

## How to open

Go to the **Page Types** tab in project navigation.

## The type list

Each row shows:
- Colour dot — visual identifier
- Name and /slug
- Priority badge — High / Medium / Low
- URL count and pattern count
- Action buttons: Reports, Edit, Delete

Types with assigned URLs appear above a divider. Types with no URLs appear below it at reduced opacity.

## URL patterns

Click any type row to expand the **URL Patterns** section. Patterns tell psiLynx which URLs to auto-assign to this type on import.

| Pattern | Matches |
|---|---|
| `/product/*` | Any URL starting with /product/ |
| `/cart` | Exactly /cart |
| `/blog/` | /blog/ and anything deeper |

### Adding a pattern

1. Expand the type row.
2. Type the pattern in the input field (press Enter or click **Add**).

### Removing a pattern

Click the × button next to the pattern.

Note: Patterns apply to URLs imported in the future. Existing URLs need to be re-assigned manually using the bulk **Assign type** action on the URL table.

## Creating a page type

1. Click **Add type**.
2. Fill in the fields:

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| **Name** | Human-readable label, e.g. "Product page" |
| **Slug** | URL-safe identifier in kebab-case (auto-generated from name) |
| **Priority** | High / Medium / Low — used for report ordering |
| **Color** | Pick from 8 colour swatches |

3. Click **Create**.

## Editing a page type

1. Click the edit icon in the type row.
2. Update name, slug, priority, or colour.
3. Click **Save**.

## Deleting a page type

1. Click the delete icon in the type row.
2. Confirm the deletion.

Warning: Deleting a page type removes the category assignment from all URLs that used it. Check history for those URLs is preserved.

## Generating reports

### For one type

Click the chart icon in a type row to open its Reports page.

### For all types at once

1. Click **Generate reports for all** at the top of the page.
2. A single dialog lets you set the batch, comparison, threshold, and included sections — reports are then created simultaneously for every type that has at least one URL.
