   I am having an issue with parent and child pages not adding the page HTML in the correct div. I have multiple parent/child levels. Here is an example

   Packages
   - Clowns
   -- Clowns In Long Island

   For the moment, I am simply using the same HTML for both Clowns and Clowns in Long Island. But when I make Clowns in Long Island a parent of Clowns, using the same template and HTML, the HTML is outside of the correct div.

   IE for Clowns, a parent of Packages, using the Package template it's:

   <div id="contents">
   ---<div id="contents-backpage">
   ------<div id="breadcrumbs">
   ------<div id="sidebar">
   ------<div id="main-content-packages">
   ------<div class="addon">
   ---</div>
   </div>

   But for Clowns In Long Island, a child of Clowns, which is a child of Packages, using the same Packages template it becomes:

   <div id="contents">
   ---<div id="contents-backpage">
   ------<div id="breadcrumbs">
   ------<div id="sidebar">
   ---</div>
   ---<div id="main-content-packages">
   ---<div class="addon">
   ---</div>
   </div>

   The main-content-packages div and addon div are outside of contents-backpage rather than inside it like the first child.

   Does anyone know why a child of a child page does this?

   Figured out my issue. The theme was using a custom function called is_child to add certain HTML. But since the new pages were grandchildren, the necessary HTML wasn't be added because is_child only looks at direct children, not grandchildren.

   I found this post: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/check-if-current-page-is-child-or-grandchild-of-a-page?replies=7#post-1787093

   It solved my issue.
