[Plugin: Flexi Pages Widget] Sub-pages disappear in version 1.6 / wp 2.9.1

This happened to me, too. The subpages no longer show in the menu when I’m on the parent page. It used to. How to fix?

Edit: Never mind, I discovered that I must include all of the desired subpages, as well. This is not good, as I want them to be included automatically. I don’t want to have to update the menu every time a page is added to the site. Is there any way around this? Would it work if I exclude pages instead of including them?

I’m running 1.6.1 on WP2.9.2 and the widget is disappearing completely when I have all of the top level pages excluded.

Any ideas?

Robert

I’m going back to fold_page_list until I can resolve this.

Still experiencing this running 1.6.2 on WP2.9.2.

Just upgraded to 1.6.3 and the issue remains.

This is a real problem, as I often only display subpages in particular case, so my menus disappeared entirely. Hope it get’s fixed soon.

I was also hit by this problem of disappearing ‘top pages’ etc. I think a solution is a small edit to the script to remove the page ID and then successively each parent page ID from the list of exclusions.

The following seems to work for me:

(In flexi-pages-widget.php 1.6.3) where you have lines 291-4:

if($exinclude == 'include')
        $include = $exinclude_values;
    else
        $exclude = $exinclude_values;

replace line 294 with:

{
        $exclude = $exinclude_values;
        $exclude_elts = explode(",", $exclude);
        $hierarchy=flexipages_get_currpage_hierarchy();
	foreach ($hierarchy as $inc_page_id)
     	   {
           $exclude_elts=array_diff($exclude_elts,array($inc_page_id));
           }
       $exclude=implode(",",$exclude_elts);
    }

Hopefully menus will reappear. If signs are promising, then all being well Srini G will be able to release an updated version.

Hi Paul,

I’m trying to modify your code so that the reverse can work: when you include a certain page that has children, those children are included as well.

I have this:

if($exinclude == 'include') {
	$include = $exinclude_values;
	$include_elts = explode(",", $include);
	$hierarchy=flexipages_get_currpage_hierarchy();
	foreach ($hierarchy as $inc_page_id)
	{
	$include_elts=array_diff($include_elts,array($inc_page_id));
	}
	$include=implode(",",$include_elts);
} else
	$exclude = $exinclude_values;

and I’m calling it with

flexipages('include=14,16,20&sort_column=ID&sort_order=ASC&show_subpages=1');

where 14, 16, and 20 all have 3 or more children.

I can’t seem to get it working..
