Display child page details on parent

[bayerberg]

Hi. I need to display title and description of child pages on parent page.
How best to do that? How to show max 6 children and paginate the rest?

Thanks!

Can you please give me an example of it. I do not really understand how it should work.

hope this helps

i need to check if the page has children and when it has I need to display excerpts


I might have a lot of subpages (childpages) so if there would be pagination that would be stellar

Thanks!

Something like the plugin Menü aller Seiten (I don’t know what the English name is, maybe menu of all pages or so) could help you. But you will have to change the code to your needs, because only the page names are listed, not any excerpts of the content.

As Torsten mentioned you can adapt the code of the plugin Page list. Especially the loop to show snippets of the child pages.

Instead of $childPage you can use $child:

$child->title()
$child->coverImage()
$child->description()
$child->permalink()

etc.
