Here, play with this code that works in the sidebar.php of the WordPress Default Theme.
<?php
$args = array(
'orderby' => 'post_title',
'order' => 'ASC',
'post_type' => 'page',
'showposts' => 1000,
'caller_get_posts' => 1
);
$pages = get_posts($args);
foreach($pages as $page) {
$out .= '<li>';
$out .= '<a href="'.get_permalink($page->ID).'" title="'.wptexturize($page->post_title).'">'.wptexturize($page->post_title).'</a></li>';
}
$out = '<ul class="page_post">' . $out . '</ul>';
echo $out;
?>
It’s perfect, thank you very much
just in case anyone would find it useful:
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'page',
'include' => 1,
);
$pages = get_posts($args);
foreach($pages as $page)
{
$out .= '<a href="'.get_permalink($page->ID).'" >'.wptexturize($page->post_title).'</a>';
}
echo $out;
unset($out);
Thanks, it helped me some!
Just what I was looking for
The code above works great for formatting my page links but it’s listing every page on my site. Previously, I had this code:
<?php
if($post->post_parent)
$children = wp_list_pages("title_li=&child_of=".$post->post_parent."&echo=0");
else
$children = wp_list_pages("title_li=&child_of=".$post->ID."&echo=0");
if ($children) { ?>
<ul>
<?php echo $children; ?>
</ul>
<?php } ?>
It would only show child pages of the parent page you were on, even on other child pages of that parent.
Is there a way to merge the two and get the formatting of your code and the child pages from the code I posted? Everything I try just makes the page list disappear completely.
Thanks in advance for your help on this!
Hi everyone. I’ve got the same problem as clockeby – I’d like to merge the two bits of code so the following code only shows child pages. Is this possible?
<?php
$args = array(
'orderby' => 'post_title',
'order' => 'ASC',
'post_type' => 'page',
'showposts' => 1000,
'caller_get_posts' => 1
);
$pages = get_posts($args);
foreach($pages as $page) {
$out .= '<li>';
$out .= '<a href="'.get_permalink($page->ID).'" title="'.wptexturize($page->post_title).'">'.wptexturize($page->post_title).'</a></li>';
}
$out = '<ul class="page_post">' . $out . '</ul>';
echo $out;
?>
Does this only work in sidebar.php?
I’m trying to generate an XML sitemap (I don’t want to use bloated plugins) and I can’t seem to find a way to output the pages so I can do my own formatting on them
Nope this should work in any php file.
Here’s another little snippet i use alot on my pages.
<?php
$pages = get_pages('child_of='.$post->ID.'');
foreach ($pages as $page) {
$item = '<li><a href="'.get_permalink($page->ID).'" title="Click here to go to the product details">Show details</a></li>';
echo $item;
}
?>
Thanks, any ideas on how can I get a list of all pages including the root with that?
nevermind – had a look at the function and you can just do get_pages()
