What article on docs.github.com is affected?

https://docs.github.com/en/pages/getting-started-with-github-pages/creating-a-github-pages-site

and/or

https://docs.github.com/en/pages/getting-started-with-github-pages/using-submodules-with-github-pages

and/or

https://docs.github.com/en/pages/getting-started-with-github-pages/configuring-a-publishing-source-for-your-github-pages-site

What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?

More clarity on GitHub Pages capability to host multiple static-sites within nested folders of the selected repository.

This can be achieved by simply entering the sub-folder's unique URL (after build is complete).

For example:

my-test-projects/
├── project-a/
├── project-b/
└── project-c/

each project is a sub-folder of the my-test-projects, and can be accessed by appending the folder-name in the address URL

Entered multiple articles that may be updated. Not sure if any one (or all) are appropriate for this mention.

Additional information

The following discussions mention this capability. I followed the instructions and it works well!

GitHub Docs discussion --> #26012

GitHub Community discussion --> https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/58276#discussion-5306408

Indeed, I posed the question in both places 👍
