"Alias" for document titles within Kbee.app, without changing real document name#35

When viewing the wiki from kbee.app, in some cases, I’d like to be able to change the displayed title of a document (any doc type) without actually changing the original document’s name in Google Drive.

For example, imagine I have a folder structure and real google docs named like this:

<wiki root>/sales/messaging/competitors/Sales Messaging -Competitor Battlecard - Competitor A

<wiki root>/sales/messaging/competitors/Sales Messaging -Competitor Battlecard - Competitor B

<wiki root>/sales/messaging/competitors/Sales Messaging -Competitor Battlecard - Competitor C

In Google Drive, I intentionally use a long, descriptive document name because (as you know) Google Drive’s native search only shows you the document title. So, when people are searching directly in Google Drive, the doc title needs to be longer and more descriptive.

However, within Kbee.app wiki, the folder structure already shows you what you need to know visually… and thus I’d like to simply display doc titles like “Competitor A”, “Competitor B”, “Competitor C”.

The ultimate goal is to use short aliases within the wiki to keep the left navigation tree clean, compact, and easy to read while still keeping doc titles that are useful in native Google Drive searches.
