List Pages Include Tree?

I need to make a list of certain pages and their child pages. I see that in the codex page for ws_list_pages, there is a exclude_tree parameter, but there isn’t an include_tree? Is there a way to do this without going through and listing every page I want to include? (or similarly, listing every page i want to exclude)

I tried this method and it seemed to work on the parent page, but when I clicked on the child page, it only displayed the child. I want a list (like the one below), consistently on every page.
- Parent
- Child
- Child
- Child
- Parent
- Child
- Child
- Child
I’m new to all this and still learning so thanks in advanced.

I also am looking for this functionality. It doesn’t make sense to have an “exclude_tree” option, and not an “include_tree” option.

Why was this topic marked as resolved? I see no resolution.

Yeah, I also am in need of this setup… and again, why is this set as resolved?

only the op can set it as resolved so I suppose they found an answer and didn’t bother sharing

Add the is_tree(); function to your functions.php (or to the functions.php in the wp-functions folder):

REad here for links and info:

http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags (scroll down to snippet4)

here’s the function:
```
function is_tree($pid) {      // $pid = The ID of the page we're looking for pages underneath
	global $post;         // load details about this page
	if(is_page()&&($post->post_parent==$pid||is_page($pid)))
               return true;   // we're at the page or at a sub page
	else
               return false;  // we're elsewhere
};
```
If that helps you, mark your post resolved…
