Listing subpages with their thumbnails

    Hi,

    I’m using the following code to display a pages subpages;

    <?php
					// If CHILD_OF is not NULL, then this page has a parent
					// Therefore, list siblings i.e. subpages of this page's parent
					if($post->post_parent){
						wp_list_pages('title_li=&include='.$post->post_parent);
						wp_list_pages('title_li=&child_of='.$post->post_parent);
						}
					// If CHILD_OF is zero, this is a top level page, so list subpages only.
					else{
						wp_list_pages('title_li=&include='.$post->ID);
						wp_list_pages('title_li=&child_of='.$post->ID);
						}
					?>
					</ul>

    And it’s working perfectly. However, these subpages are galleries and I would love to display the page thumbnail in the outputted list so that the user catches a glimpse of the gallery instead of just seeing a text link.

    Surely there’s any easy way to do this!

    Sorted it myself using the following code:

    <ul class="subpages">
<span style="display:none;"><?php the_ID(); ?></span>
<?php $parent = $post->ID; ?>
<?php
query_posts('posts_per_page=15&post_type=page&post_parent='.$parent);
 while (have_posts()) : the_post();
?>

<?php $image_thumb = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'image-thumb', true); ?>
<li><?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
<h4><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h4></li>

<?php endwhile; ?>
</ul>

    Fantastic – thanks for the post – works perfectly!

    Do you have a link to show what this looks like?

    Also, where do you place this code? (what directory/file)?

    I’m trying to do the same thing- have a parent page with thumbnail links to the child pages/posts.

    Thanks!

    This lists out the subpages, but I can’t get the thumbnails to show up.

    I’m getting this error:
    Fatal error: Call to undefined function the_post_thumbnail()

    Could you show us what you’re entire template code looks like?

    If you put the code inside the_loop it will output the entire page, but if you put this code outside the loop, this is most likely after / below the last <?php endif; ?> this will create only a list of subpages with thumbnail.

    on my customers page i did it like this:

    <?php endwhile; else : ?>
<?php endif; ?>

<ul class="subpages">
<span style="display:none;"><?php the_ID(); ?></span>
<?php $parent = $post->ID; ?>
<?php
query_posts('posts_per_page=15&post_type=page&post_parent='.$parent);
 while (have_posts()) : the_post();
?>

<?php $image_thumb = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'image-thumb', true); ?>
<li><?php the_post_thumbnail('single-blog-thumbnail'); ?>
<h4><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h4></li>

<?php endwhile; ?>
</ul>

    I hope this is understandable…
