• Afternoon All.

    I am currently developing a new site for my company and I’ve used WordPress for many years as I find it very flexible and it tends to be adaptable to most situations I need. I have on this project hit a snag.

    The site is:

    http://37.26.106.20/~globestk/products/

    What I am trying to achieve is to be able to enter page id’s into a custom field in the CMS and then have those pages displayed as boxes which the user can click on to go to a list of products very much similar to an ecommerce website.

    The company only sells to distributers and not to Jo Public so an ecommerce site wasn’t really needed which is why I used WordPress.

    Has anyone come across a Plugin or code that gives this kind of functionailty? I am a designer rather than a coder which is why I am having difficulties. I can get it to list the id’s I need but it then goes farther and lists all the other pages on the site.

    My code for this page is:

    <?php
    
    	/*
    		Template Name: Category Page
    	*/
    
    ?>
    
    <?php get_header(); the_post(); ?>
    
    <div id="content">
    
    <?php
    
    		echo "<div class='category_box'>";
    
    		query_posts("posts_per_page=-1&post_type=page&post_parent=$pieces");
    
    		while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
    
    		<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" class="categories" title="<?php the_title(); ?>">
    
            <div class="category_name">
            	<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
            </div><!-- end .category_name -->
    
    		<div class="category_image">
              	<?php echo "<img src='" . get_post_meta($post->ID, "image", true) . "' />"; ?>
            </div><!-- end . category_image -->
    
            </a>
    
    		<?php endwhile; wp_reset_query();
    
    		echo "</div>";
    
    	?>
    
    </div><!-- end #content -->
    
    <?php get_sidebar(); ?>
    
    <?php get_footer(); ?>

    Any help or suggestions would be gratefully received.

    Thanks

    Kev
