Inclusion rather than exclusion

  • As most of you, I am using the following tag to exclude pages.

    <?php wp_list_pages(‘exclude=5,12,27,31,32,34,35,40,59,66,67,72,73,91,92,93,111, 119,121,124&title_li=’) ;?>

    Does anyone know a possible way of getting pages to include instead of exclude? Every time I create a new page, I have to go into the code and exclude it in the header. Is there a way to avoid this?

    (This of course in not correct, but it would be nice if it was as easy as this:

    <?php wp_list_pages(‘include=1,2,6,9,11’) ;?>

    Thanks in advance.

  • As far as I know there isn’t anything like that.

    What I did on some sites with many Pages – kept only a few as “parents” and made all the rest of Pages “children”. Then in the wp_list_pages tag used the parameter “depth=1” which shows only the top level Pages.
    Depending on the structure of your Pages/content it might work. Or not ??

    That worked like a charm. The only thing now, is how to I get rid of “Pages?”

    I tried the following and didn’t have much luck.

    <?php wp_list_pages(‘depth=1’, ‘exclude=title_li’) ;?>

    or

    <?php wp_list_pages(‘depth=1 &exclude=title_li’) ;?>

    Any thoughts? Thanks again.

    Thanks! That cleared it up for me. It helps if you read. Sorry, it took you helping me get started to understand the whole thing.

    Here’s the solution.

    <?php wp_list_pages(‘depth=1 &title_li=’); ?>

    It truly helps when you don’t reveal the solution in full; rather pointing me in the right direction with a knowledgeful smile.

    Thanks again for your help.

    LOVELY attitude! If everyone were like you….

    Could you mark this as resolved, at the top, please and thanks?

    ??
    Even I was “lovely” in this thread (as opposed to mean as I usually am described…)

    Well, moshu, I’ve never felt or said that about you. I know others have, but then, what THEY think is THEIR problem, not yours….
