Prior to the most recent RCE update, there was a menu item in the Course Link menus that allowed a teacher to Link to a New Page.  This allowed them to create and title the new page while still working on the current one.  Power users found this very efficient.  This feature has been removed, so now they would have to stop and create a new page and then go back and establish the link.  I understand that it was not a widely used feature, but it was important to the power users, and I want to keep my faculty power users effective and happy!

Yes, this!  It made the development of new pages linked within existing pages so much more efficient.  I am truly missing this feature and would LOVE to get it back.

I miss this feature!  I makes it so much more convenient to create linked pages while working on an existing page.  This update adds so much time and extra clicks to the process.

Yes, please add this back.   I used this feature every class for making an agenda or breaking out the agenda to new pages for information that students need or student note pages.    The process is now very cumbersome and I abandoned a very useful agenda discussion practice with students last semester.  Creating a link in discussion creates a placeholder to come back and build up a page by students, co-instructors, or I can come back to.

It would be great if Canvas would allow users to create a page and link it, while you are working on editing a pre - existing page. The old content editor used to have this feature.
