When you search for a number of larger websites in google, it shows "subpages"/categories. For example, when searching for the Electronic Frontier Foundation, the pages About, EFF Action Center, Contact and Issues are highlighted. My current client has similar "subpages"/categories show up, and doesn't appear to have done anything to set that up, which implies that these can show up automatically. So, I have two questions:

1) Is there a way to enable these if they aren't showing up naturally for a new site?

2) Is there a way to reorder/change these to show different pages?

To try and figure this out, I've:


Looked through the google search console, including their search features documentation.
Looked through the sitemaps and meta tags of multiple sites that these show for, where I found no indication of what might be enabling these.


I'm guessing this is an issue of knowing what to google, so if this is duplicate, I encourage you to mark it so that people searching terms similar to me will be redirected to the original question.
