Formatting Pages listing on Homepage

  • The new WordPress 1.5 is really fantastic and I truly impresses with it’s ease of use, but I have tried unsuccessfully to format the “Pages” section or it’s associated sub-pages. The only tag I have found is (wp_list_pages) which really doesn’t allow for much customization or am I missing something?

    What I am trying to do is separate the main pages from their sub-pages.

    So to explain I want to take

    • Africa
    • Cameroon
    • Lesotho
    • Swaziland
    • Togo
    • South America
    • Argentina
    • Brazil
    • Chile

    and turn it into

    • Africa
    • South America
    • Cameroon
    • Lesotho
    • Swaziland
    • Togo
    • Argentina
    • Brazil
    • Chile

    Is that possible and if so where would I find the code to edit it?

    Ah damn formatting that last bit should read

    • Africa
    • South America

    Then in a different part of the page

    • Cameroon
    • Lesotho
    • Swaziland
    • Togo

    Or this depending on thich of the “Main” sections are selected.

    • Argentina
    • Brazil
    • Chile

    Does that make sense?

    I take it that means “hell no”

    You could do this in your CSS — you will probably have to tweak, but you should be able to do something along the lines of:

    li.page_item ul {
    border: 1px solid #039;
    }

    li.page_item ul li ul {
    border: 1px solid #CCC;
    }

    This should let you separate and visualize your lists. Then, you can add positioning to your CSS to move the blocks where you want.
