   Hello.

   Right now I'm making a sidebar.php and i'm so confused about getting a sub page shows in their parent page. This is my code :

   <?php
   /**
    * The Sidebar containing the primary and secondary widget areas.
    *
    * @package WordPress
    * @subpackage Ultimate_smart
    * @since Ultimatesmart
    */
   ?>
   	<!-- begin sidebar -->
   	<div class="grid_4">
   		<div class="inner_sidebar">
   		<?php if (is_single() || is_archive() || is_page('journal')) { ;?>
   
   		<h2>Recent Post</h2>
   		<?php query_posts('showposts=6'); ?>
   		<div class="rpost">
   		<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
   		<ul>
   		<li><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Go to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
   		<?php endwhile; ?>
   		</ul>
   <h2>Categories</h2>
   <?php wp_list_categories('title_li='); ?>
   <?php }
   elseif (is_page()) { ?>
   <?php $page_query = new WP_Query('post_type=page&post_parent='); ?>
   <?php while ($page_query->have_posts()) : $page_query->the_post(); ?>
   <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
   <?php get_the_image( array ( 'width' => '80', 'height' => '80' ) ); ?>
   <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
   <?php endwhile; ?>
   <?php } ?>
   </div>
   </div>
   
   <div class="clear"></div><!-- END SIDEBAR -->

   I know the problem is the post_parent (or maybe something else?). If i set the post_parent=ID' it worked but it only shows that page ID on all pages .

   Any ideas?

   your first query in the sidebar ( <?php query_posts('showposts=6'); ?> ) is disturbing the original query_string, so that the information is lost, on what page you are.

   try to add wp_reset_query(); after the endwhile; of your first loop in the sidebar.

   @alchymyth i never try the wp_reset_query, but i finally make it worked with global $wp_query.

   I added this :

   elseif (is_page()) { ?>
   		<?php global $wp_query;
   			$thePostID = $wp_query->post->ID;
   		?>
   		<?php $page_query = new WP_Query('post_type=page&post_parent='.$thePostID); ?>
   <?php while ($page_query->have_posts()) : $page_query->the_post(); ?>
   <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
   <?php get_the_image( array ( 'width' => '80', 'height' => '80' ) ); ?>
   <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
   <?php endwhile; ?>
   	<?php }

   Works nicely. :) thanks~
