# DITA: Embed child pages at parent bottom (rellinks)

> By default, DITA adds child pages as links along with their short descriptions below parent pages. You can control this feature.

To automatically embed child links in parent pages, edit your transformation scenario transform in Oxygen, click the Parameters tab, and set the rellinks parameter to **all**. To disable child link embeds, set the value to **none**.

You can also control rellinks in your ditamap by setting the attribute `linking="none"` or `linking="all"` on `topicref` or `topichread` elements. This will override, on a case-by-case basis, whatever parameter settings you have in the transform.

In the ditamap, set linking="none" to disable.
