Not yet? Will it be supported? Is there any way to do something like

$this->pages('templates^=shop_product');

currently?

Don't know what you mean by for fields native?

ah get it.

[Soma]

You could do something like this:

$tpl = $templates->find('name^=basic-')->first();
$pa = $pages->find("template=$tpl");

more likely...

$pa = new PageArray();
$tpl = $templates->find('name^=basic-');
foreach($tpl as $tp) {
	$pa->import( $pages->find("template=$tp") );
}

Fun.

$pa = $pages->find('template=' . implode('|', $templates->find('name^=basic-')));

As usual: too simple. Thanks ryan.

I've left that to you Ryan... was going to put it but thought someone else will

BTW why can't this work? with 12,32,42,42 instead of |, would be even shorter ?

$pa = $pages->find('template=' . $templates->find('name^=basic-'));

EDIT: Problem is it doesn't seem to work for me here. ?

EDIT: Ok got it

This is the right one:

$pa = $pages->find("template=" . implode("|", $templates->find('name^=basic-')->getArray()));

Comma can't be used to separate the template names because comma is used to separate individual components of a selector. However, the default output of WireArray::__toString isn't really that useful at present, so I've modified it to return a selector compatible string instead (like PageArray does). So if you've got the latest commit, you can do this (copied from your example):

$pa = $pages->find('template=' . $templates->find('name^=basic-'));

Great thanks Ryan! The shorter the better.
