Hi I am trying to make a menu that is the children pages of a parent level page and it works with the following 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 } ?>
So I get:
Page 1
Page 2
Page 3
BUT, I wanted to add a brief description using Custom Field meta data I created called "navigational_abstract" from each page so that I would have something like:
Page 1
This is the first page
Page 2
This is the second page
Page 3
This is the third page
I thought I could do something like this(after echo $children):
<?php echo get_post_meta($post_id=$children->post->ID, navigational_abstract, true); ?>
but it's returning no results.
Is this even possible with the get_post_meta()? The other thought I had was to get "wp_list_pages" to return the ID values in an array but I am relatively new to WordPress PHP. Any help would be appreciated.
