Hello,

I have created one sub site and fetching data of pages based on its content type fields. So if wiki page its wiki field gets saved. However in case of Subsite when I created wiki page its content type is Site page so based on content type fields if I go, I dont find wiki field in it(as site page content type fields does not have wiki field in it, because wiki field is from wiki page content type). So why is it happening like this. I am creating wiki page then why page is having site page content type. I faced similar issue with web part page as well. this issue happens in case of subsite. While creating subsite nothing selected different all values were default, just gave sub site name and url that's it.

    Hi @Yuvraj Patil ,
    My understanding of your question is that wiki page, web part page and site page are of different types, but the three types of pages created are all located in Site Pages, and it is impossible to quickly identify which type the page belongs to, am I right? ?
    For this case, unfortunately, this is by design.
    I have 2 workarounds for your reference:

    1. When creating a Page, mark it in the name to distinguish it.
    2. Create different views, such as creating a view for wiki Page, and switch between different views to distinguish and find different types of Pages more quickly.
