Thanks.

Struggling to understand this after too many hours staring at a screen, how do I ‘set child_of to the current page’?

I assume it begins with ‘ ‘child_of’ =>’ but I can’t even guess the rest.

UPDATE: Brain-fade was the cause… using a plugin to create them, having then exported the code to a functions file I’d forgotten to then deactivate the plugin before editing that functions file.

Thanks, Nisha.

Sweet plugin – but my cpts are hierarchical, so it won’t work.

@ Suyogya Shukla…

Thanks.
Sorry, I poorly explained – although it helps refresh my memory on manually compiling a list, I’m trying to add code to a template rather than add it to a post.

Thanks.
I’m also in the habit of ‘grabbing an existing…’ – although often with no real understanding of what I’m doing – hence my regular appearances here asking for help.
🙂

Thanks.

Having read a lot, I’m ok-ish with the slug/permalink thing (unless I missed something – quite likely)… I hadn’t explained clearly – the slug isn’t removed, but modified to a different url path which shouldn’t conflict.

It was the title that was troubling me… but if I change the conditional to ‘elseif (is_singular(‘post’))’ things seem to be ok. (I hadn’t realized that ‘is single’ also applied to CPTs.)

UPDATE: Page numbers are added to paginated posts, but not pages.

Before switching to title-tag support, I’d used conditional page titles with this code to add page numbers topaginated posts/pages:

if ($paged >= 2 || $page >= 2 ) echo ' ' . sprintf( __('(page %s)'), max($paged, $page) );

General-template.php in core includes the line below, which seems to add the numbering to posts – but not pages.

// Add a page number if necessary.
if ( ( $paged >= 2 || $page >= 2 ) && ! is_404() ) {
$title['page'] = sprintf( __( 'page %s' ), max( $paged, $page ) );
}

UPDATE: The cause of the problem is that as part of removing usused stuff, in functions I removed the slug metabox.

There’s a Trac ticket for this.

Restoring the metabox, and then hiding in page options solves the issue.
