Really I almost need an include_tree argument. I discovered I am not alone in that wish. My problem isn't getting a navigation up with links, the problem is when there are new pages added. I need to be able to not have the navigation grow as the site demands more pages. </p> <p>Here is a Wordpress support post that has as close to a solution as I have found. <a href="http://wordpress.org/support/topic/287555" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/support/topic/287555</a></p> <blockquote> <p>Here is a workaround. I started with an array of pages IDs I want to include. I loop through that array, displaying each parent page. I then call wp_list_pages again, looking for the child pages, and add them if they exist.</p> <p>$page_ids = array(1,2,3);<br /> foreach($page_ids as $page_id) {<br /> $page = wp_list_pages("echo=0&#38;title_li=&#38;include=$page_id");<br /> $submenu = wp_list_pages("echo=0&#38;title_li=&#38;child_of=$page_id&#38;depth=1");<br /> if($submenu) $page = str_replace("", " <ul>$submenu</ul> ", $page);<br /> echo $page;<br /> }</p> <p>This code is very clunky, and calls the wp_list_pages multiple times, doing what I assume will be multiple database calls. Not very efficient or pretty, IMO. At least it does the trick for now.</p> <p>The ideal solution would be to have an "include_tree" parameter for the wp_list_pages function. </p></blockquote> <p>Is there a better way to do it? I also am trying to account for the superfish menu. </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/including-specific-pages-in-menu#post-10568 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 21:57:20 +0000 ryans213 10568@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>The information Chris provided is oh so close to what I want to achieve. Thank you Chris.</p> <blockquote><p> function childtheme_menu_args($args)<br /> {<br /> $args = array('show_home' =&gt; 'Start', 'sort_column' =&gt; 'menu_order',<br /> 'menu_class' =&gt; 'menu', 'echo' =&gt; true, 'include' =&gt; '413, 313');<br /> return $args;<br /> }<br /> add_filter('wp_page_menu_args', 'childtheme_menu_args'); </p></blockquote> <p>The problem with this, and I think CRGO alluded to it, how do I account for the child pages for the navigational links that have a sub menu? For example I need the child page for 313 to show up when I roll over it. I'm sure this is something someone has tackled already given the diversity of Thematic themes out there. Any assistance with this will be greatly appreciated. :) </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/including-specific-pages-in-menu#post-7004 Fri, 09 Oct 2009 00:28:00 +0000 em hr 7004@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>Not sure exactly what you mean but look here for more insight on the arguments you can add to this filter</p> <p> <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_page_menu" rel="nofollow">http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_page_menu</a></p> <p>-Gene </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/including-specific-pages-in-menu#post-6923 Sun, 04 Oct 2009 20:24:27 +0000 crgo 6923@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>How do you include the page and leep the child pages so it opens up in the navigation as well. </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/including-specific-pages-in-menu#post-3546 Sun, 26 Apr 2009 18:04:00 +0000 EvilEsq 3546@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>Viola!
