wp_list_pages help me!!!

Try the “depth” parameter:
https://codex.www.ads-software.com/wp_list_pages#Parameters

How exactly would I use the depth parameter?

As explained on the link provided by renato…

If I use depth though, it shows all of the pages at that depth but I just want the child pages of the current page.

Try this:

<?php
  $children = wp_list_pages('title_li=&amp;child_of='.$post->ID.'&amp;echo=0&amp;depth=1');
  if ($children) { ?>
  <ul>
  <?php echo $children; ?>
  </ul>
  <?php } ?>

when I try that it shows all of the child pages but also all of the grandchild pages which I don’t want.

would I be able to use exclude= in any way?

if I use this code it shows me only the first level of childs -no grandchilds – I’ve tested this the last 2minutes ??
but you can’t copy and paste this code because the & get to &amp…

<?php
  $children = wp_list_pages('title_li=&amp;child_of='.$post->ID.'&amp;echo=0&amp;depth=1');
  if ($children) { ?>
  <ul>
  <?php echo $children; ?>
  </ul>
  <?php } ?>

what do you mean you can’t copy and paste?

oh I see what you mean. It does work but it still lists the grandchild pages.

The forum software changes & to & a m p;, so you can’t copy and paste the code.

*cough* pastebin *cough* … ??

this is driving me crazy, can anyone please help.

Okay not sure what’s driving you nuts but will take the code Monika posted and put it here:

For further understanding please review:
wp_list_pages() <- this article in particular has example and definitions you may want to undestand!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know how to change the &amp to & but renato/monika’s code doesn’t do what I want. It shows all of the pages at that depth even the ones not under the current parent.
What I need is code that I can put into my page template that only shows the 1st level of child pages under the current parent.
