Thank you, MichaelH, that looks 100% like what I was looking for!!! You’re a star 🙂

Thank you for your help, samboll. It looks like enabling java or something else has worked and she’s OK now!

linux, samboll

thanks, samboll, will ask the client

Thank you, buddha trance, that’s great. And if you want to display the child pages of a particular parent, say the page id is 5, you can do this on any page:

<ul>
  <?php
  wp_list_pages('title_li=&child_of=5') ?>
</ul>

It wasn’t me that worked that out.

If you want to put either of these into the body of a page or post using Exec-PHP plugin, the code with the dynamically created post id doesn’t work (it lists all pages and children) whereas the one with the specified page id does!

Thank you, buddha trance, I’d been there. What I want is a list of all the children of a certain page. I actually want to list on page “Africa” it’s children: “Angola” “Benin” “Botswana” etc.

I might have missed something in that link.

I’ve found putting this code in sidebar lists child pages if there are any of the parent plus lists them if you are on one of the child pages:

<?php
global $wp_query;
if( empty($wp_query->post->post_parent) ) {
$parent = $wp_query->post->ID;
} else {
$parent = $wp_query->post->post_parent;
} ?>
<?php if(wp_list_pages("title_li=&child_of=$parent&echo=0" )): ?>
<div id="submenu">
<ul>
<?php wp_list_pages("title_li=&child_of=$parent" ); ?>
</ul>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

iridiax, thank you so much, I was pulling my hair out over this one. I’ve been through the CSS and I’d made that particular mistake many times – I’ve rectified it and the site’s working perfectly.

Bless you.
