 * I use your plugin for all page listing — except for one thing.
 * I sometimes need to create a listing of subpages from a hierarchy, but only 1
   level of depth, not subpages below that.
 * Is there a way to do that with this plugin? (I am currently using Page List, 
   but would prefer to use yours for this, as well. For reference:)
 * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/page-list/#other_notes](https://wordpress.org/plugins/page-list/#other_notes)
 * depth – how many levels in the hierarchy of pages are to be included in the list:[
   pagelist depth=”3″]; by default depth is unlimited (depth=”0″); Displays pages
   at any depth and arranges them in a flat list: [pagelist depth=”-1″];
 * If not available now, perhaps a future version?
 * With much appreciation,
 * -Jay

 * Thanks for the request.
 * Display Posts includes a post_parent parameter that (I believe) accomplishes 
   what you want.
 * Example: [display-posts post_type=”page” post_parent=”8″]
 * That should list pages that are direct descendants of the page with an ID = 8.
