Using WPBA with Subpages

  • Hello everyone,

    I’m trying to use WBPA on page to display attachments of a subpage.
    I have a magazine page where the page current issue is the parent page, the issue itself (eg. N°1/2015) is a subpage. I attached several files to my subpage and want to show these attachments on the parent page.

    I am using the following (not working) code for my parent page template:

    <?php

$attachments = array(
	'post_type' => 'attachment',
	'post_parent' => 23,
	'numberposts' => -1
	);
$attachments = get_posts($args);
if ($attachments) {
		echo wpba_attachment_list( array(
			'open_new_window'      => true,
			'show_icon'            => true,
			'icon_size'           => array( 48, 48 ),
			'no_attachments_msg'   => 'null',

		) );
	}
?>

    Does anybode have an idea why the code above does not work?

    The plugin itself is a great piece of coding! And works like a charm on regular pages. ??

    Thanks a lot!

    Greetings,

    It seems like it should work however you shouldn’t have to do the first query. The wpba_attachment_list function will take care of that for you. I would also check if the first query is returning anything looks right but might as well check. If that doesn’t work let me know.

    Thanks,
    Dan

    Hey,

    using the wpba_attachment_list itself it wont’t work.
    I used the following code:

    <?php
		echo wpba_attachment_list( array(
			'open_new_window'      => true,
			'show_icon'            => true,
			'icon_size'           => array( 48, 48 ),
			'no_attachments_msg'   => 'null',
		) );
?>

    Replies “Sorry, no attachments exist.”
    If I am using wordpress get_posts function it works:

    <?php
$args = array(
	'post_type' => 'attachment',
	'post_parent' => $page->ID,
	'numberposts' => -1,
	);
$attachments = get_posts($args);
if ($attachments) {
	foreach ($attachments as $attachment) {
		echo the_attachment_link($attachment->ID, false);
	}
}
?>

    :/
