I was having problems getting this to work and found an alternative at http://www.snilesh.com/resources/wordpress/wordpress-hacks-and-tricks/wordpress-show-title-and-excerpt-of-child-pages-on-parent-page

Hope that helps

It’s me again.
I see now, that the signs are converted on this site, so that you don’t see any difference, but maybe you’ll pay attention to using the correct “ ” and ‘ ‘
…

Thanks a lot – works fine now!

Just a few notes from me:

1. When you copy and past the code from this site, you may – like me – have troubles because of the special signs in the code:

get_results(”SELECT * FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_parent = “.$post->ID.” AND post_type = ‘page’ ORDER BY menu_order”, ‘OBJECT’); ?>

To solve the error in execution, I replaced the
“ by ” and ‘ by ‘
e.g. ”SELECT becomes “SELECT
e.g. ‘page’ becomes ‘page’
- and then it worked!

2. To correct the SELECT statement to only search for published pages, after

AND post_type = ‘page’

add this:
AND post_status = ‘publish’

@JanEg

Your code works perfectly!

By the way, I’m able to pull in custom field values as well as regulary wordpress loop stuff…

Nice!

It may be worth adding a reminder that you’ll need to add:
global $wpdb;
at the start of any custom function that attempts to use the code – otherwise it’ll either just silently fail, or more likely, die at the point of the query.

Otherwise, thanks for sharing!

Try this:
` ‘page’,
‘meta_value’=> ‘voorpagina’,
‘order’=>’ASC’,
));?>
`

— the_title and the_content here —

I’ve implemented the first block of code and I’ve changed the_excerpt to the_content and everything is working great, so thats for that. However, this might just be a caching problem but when I have a page in draft it still gets pulled out and displayed on the parent page. Is there a way around this?

The Magliozzis previously took a break at approximately the half-hour mark of the show. ,

Some of these I would have never have thought of. ,

Thanks for the code – not so readily available as one might think…

My question – when “pulling” the subpage content, it seems that WP core code is not rendered correctly. Such as a wp gallery in the subpage or a wp caption to a photo.

Any idea how to sort this out?
