Hi
I have the following code that displays all children:
<% control Children %>
How do I limit this to a certain page type?

For instance "NewPageType"
Tried this and It did not work <% if NewPageType %>

Thanks

Hi.

Have a look at this:

<% control ChildrenOf(page-url) %>

This will create a datafeed of the children of the given page. Handy if you want a list of the subpages under staff (eg the staff) on the homepage etc

<% control Page(my-page) %>$Title<% end_control %>

“Page” will return a single page from the site tree, looking it up by URL. You can use it in the <% control %> format. Can’t be called using $Page(my-page).Title.

Taken from here: http://doc.silverstripe.org/doku.php?id=built-in-page-controls

Thanks,

Unfortunatly it did not work for me I put in
<% control Children(NewPage Type) %>
and it did not restrict the other pages.

Any other ideas?

Hi eorkg

You can do this:

<% if ClassName = PageType %>

I dont understand how to use this.
Can you interpret this in the context of NewPageType
I dont understand how classtype fits in

Thanks

corkg, I havent tested this, but in your case, it should be:

<% if ClassName = NewPageType %>
<% control Children %> 
...
<% end_control %>
<% end_if %>
