I hope this helps. I think you may need to create your own table of
contents template (there may be something in the solutions page on
boltiwire.com though) or javascript. I'll help you write it if you
need help.

Folders are not used for most setups. They allow you to, for example,
store certain types in other folders, such as images of people in a
special place.

No. Pages are organised in groups based on their names. The page
"one.two" has group "one" and the search:

[(search group=one)]

will return a list containing the page "one.two" if it exists.

Simply call the pages:

"project"
"project.reset"
"project.reset.high level design"

As you tried to to. Then generate your TOCs by search functions:

[(search group=project template=toc)]

the builtin toc may not be what you want. Use a template of your own
making, or look into making custom functions.

search functions and templates.

javascript. I believe there is an example in the solutions/examples
part of boltwire.com

put your side menu in the pages "side".

Have you looked at how the zone pages work? Consider the "header"
pages. The pages "one.two" will attempt to include the page
"one.two.header" if this pages exists. If not, it will attempt to
include the page "one.header" and if that does not exist, "header".

However, you probably do not want that, but rather just use the base
"header" page, and include this code:

[if greater {1} {p0}][(search group={p1}.{p2} template=toc)][if]

This is not a question.

[(breadcrump {p})]

The {p} retrns the name of the current page. The rest calls the
function "breadcrumb".

There are ways to have it apear on all pages. You probably want the
"header" page, try posting it there then looking at your pages.

[(toc {+p})] means: "call the function "toc" with the result of the
current search". If you have it outside a template, you want: [(toc
{p})] which means: "call the function toc with the name of the current
page".

[[{+p}|{+title}]] means: "create a link to the name of the result of
the current search, and use the text 'the title of the result of the
current search'".
You may understand better:

[[{p}|{:title}]]

which means: "create a link to the current page, and use the title of
the current page as text."
