   Fellow wordpressers,

   After scratching my head for a little while, I have placed an unordered list into one of my sidebar widgets (one of many) as follows. (# replaces the actual page ID)

   <div>
                  <ul class="links">
   
   <?php wp_list_pages("depth=1&title_li=&sort_column=menu_order&child_of=#"); // display ONLY the sub pages of page xxx ?>
   
   <?php end ?>
        </ul>
   	</div>

   Each page concerned has a featured thumbnail attached to the page and I would like to incorporate the thumbnail into the lists down the sidebar using the FOREACH function. I'm presuming this will be by adding the_post_thumbnail, however I don't know how to set it up correctly.

   i.e. foreach(array) { the_post_thumbnail; }

   Many thanks in advance

   If you want to modify the output at all (for instance, by adding a thumbnail to each item), you're not going to be able to use the wp_list_pages() function (well, you could, but it would be a lot more hassle than it's worth).

   Instead, you should use the get_pages() function to retrieve an array of the pages you're trying to list; then loop through those and output the appropriate HTML (with the thumbnail) for each one.
