Describe the feature you'd like
1- Add an indication to which page I am currently in inside the Page Navigation.
2- A link to the next page or chapter at the bottom of each page will make the navigation easier.
3- Main page color(green) and icon are very similar to Books color and icon which is confusing.
Screenshots attached for clarification

Describe the benefits this feature would bring to BookStack users
It will make the view clearer, navigation faster, and improve user experience overall.

Hello @ali-h2010,

Thank you for your recommendations.

1- Add an indication to which page I am currently in inside the Page Navigation.

Absolutely! This is something I accidentally removed during the recent redesign. I have just applied a fix to the master branch so this will be in the next release.

2- A link to the next page or chapter at the bottom of each page will make the navigation easier.

Yeah, This is a good idea and has already been requested in issue #1381.

3- Main page color(green) and icon are very similar to Books color and icon which is confusing.
Screenshots attached for clarification

I see how this could be confusing. The green is the color of a books so I've applied the same to a collection of books. Not really sure what the best alternative to use here. This will be the same situation for shelves.

Since items 1 & 2 are now already covered I'll update the title of this issue to focus on item 3.

Since there's been no further developments on this or ideas to address the remaining request I'm going to close this off.
