page attributes and sub pages

I’m trying to figure out page attributes. I would like to have a “parent” page titled recipes and when they click on recipes it would take them to a list of my recipes. i’m not even sure if page attributes is how i should do this. thank you

Hi, I’m still waiting for a response but I want to clarify my question.
I have a widget titled “did you eat healthy today” under that I would like to have a link “recipes” where they click on that link and it goes to my recipes. right now it shows recipes and each individual recipe underneath it. i want the actual recipes hidden under the “parent” recipe. Hope this makes sense. I appreciate any feedback. -
Hi there!
I was in the process of responding when you replied again. Typically we get back to users within 24 hours, so you’re fortunate to catch us on a quiet day! :)
The Pages Widget will show every page on your site – even pages with the Recipes page as its parent – and there’s no way to hide subpages at this time.
What I would recommend is to use Categories, then use a Custom Menu to add the specific pages and categories to your sidebar.
By setting up a Recipe category, any post made that’s added to that category will then be listed under the Recipe category page. Here’s more information about Categories:

http://healthymommy4life.com/category/healthy-cooking/Then, when you write a post for your recipe, then you would also assign the Recipe category so it will be filed in the right place. That way if someone clicked on the “Recipe” category menu link, you’ll be taken to the page you wanted. Here’s detailed instructions on how to set up a Custom Menu and the Custom Menu Widget:
