Hi I have a list of pages all based on the same template but I want to exclude 2 by page ID $expertises = $pages->find("template=case-type, sort=sort"); foreach ($expertises as $expertise); I know I could change their template or add an exclude checkbox to the template etc Wondering if there is a page=not(4989,9877) type of thing in the API to exclude pages by ID? I can't find anything in the API docs but think I may be searching for the wrong phrase. Thanks

SYNOPSIS A little guide to generating an sitemap.xml using (I believe) a script Ryan originally wrote with the addition of being able to optionally exclude child pages from being output in the sitemap.xml file. I was looking back on a small project today where I was using a php script to generate an xml file, I believe the original was written by Ryan. Anyway, I needed a quick fix for the script to allow me to optionally exclude children of pages from being included in the sitemap.xml output. OVERVIEW A good example of this is a site where if you visit /minutes/ a page displays a list of board meetings which includes a title, date, description and link to download the .pdf file. I have a template called minutes and a template called minutes-document. The first page, minutes, when loaded via /minutes/ simply grabs all of its child pages and outputs the name, description and actual path of an uploaded .pdf file for a visitor to download. In my back-end I have the template MINUTES and MINUTES-DOCUMENT. Thus: So, basically, their employee can login, hover over minutes, click new, then create a new (child) record and name it the date of the meeting e.g. June 3rd, 2016 : --------------------------- OPTIONALLY EXCLUDING CHILDREN - SETUP Outputting the sitemap.xml and optionally excluding children that belong to a template. The setup of the original script is as follows: 1. Save the file to the templates folder as sitemap.xml.php 2. Create a template called sitemap-xml and use the sitemap.xml.php file. 3. Create a page called sitemap.xml using the sitemap-xml template Now, with that done you will need to make only a couple of slight modifications that will allow the script to exclude children of a template from output to the sitemap.xml 1. Create a new checkbox field and name it: sitemap_exclude_children 2. Add the field to a template that you want to control whether the children are included/excluded from the sitemap. In my example I added it to my "minutes" template. 3. Next, go to a page that uses a template with the field you added above. In my case, "MINUTES" 4. Enable the checkbox to exclude children, leave it unchecked to include children. For example, in my MINUTES page I enabled the checkbox and now when /sitemap.xml is loaded the children for the MINUTES do not appear in the file. A SIMPLE CONDITIONAL TO CHECK THE "sitemap_exclude_children" VALUE This was a pretty easy modification to an existing script, adding only one line. I just figure there may be others out there using this script with the same needs. I simply inserted the if condition as the first line in the function: function renderSitemapChildren(Page $page) { if($page->sitemap_exclude_children) return ""; ... ... ... THE FULL SCRIPT WITH MODIFICATION <?php /** * ProcessWire Template to power a sitemap.xml * * 1. Copy this file to /site/templates/sitemap-xml.php * 2. Add the new template from the admin. * Under the "URLs" section, set it to NOT use trailing slashes. * 3. Create a new page at the root level, use your sitemap-xml template * and name the page "sitemap.xml". * * Note: hidden pages (and their children) are excluded from the sitemap. * If you have hidden pages that you want to be included, you can do so * by specifying the ID or path to them in an array sent to the * renderSiteMapXML() method at the bottom of this file. For instance: * * echo renderSiteMapXML(array('/hidden/page/', '/another/hidden/page/')); * * patch to prevent pages from including children in the sitemap when a field is checked / johnwarrenllc.com * 1. create a checkbox field named sitemap_exclude_children * 2. add the field to the parent template(s) you plan to use * 3. when a new page is create with this template, checking the field will prevent its children from being included in the sitemap.xml output */ function renderSitemapPage(Page $page) { return "\n<url>" . "\n\t<loc>" . $page->httpUrl . "</loc>" . "\n\t<lastmod>" . date("Y-m-d", $page->modified) . "</lastmod>" . "\n</url>"; } function renderSitemapChildren(Page $page) { if($page->sitemap_exclude_children) return ""; /* Aded to exclude CHILDREN if field is checked */ $out = ''; $newParents = new PageArray(); $children = $page->children; foreach($children as $child) { $out .= renderSitemapPage($child); if($child->numChildren) $newParents->add($child); else wire('pages')->uncache($child); } foreach($newParents as $newParent) { $out .= renderSitemapChildren($newParent); wire('pages')->uncache($newParent); } return $out; } function renderSitemapXML(array $paths = array()) { $out = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>' . "\n" . '<urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">'; array_unshift($paths, '/'); // prepend homepage foreach($paths as $path) { $page = wire('pages')->get($path); if(!$page->id) continue; $out .= renderSitemapPage($page); if($page->numChildren) { $out .= renderSitemapChildren($page); } } $out .= "\n</urlset>"; return $out; } header("Content-Type: text/xml"); echo renderSitemapXML(); // Example: echo renderSitemapXML(array('/hidden/page/')); In conclusion, I have used a couple different processwire sitemap generating modules. But for my needs, the above script is fast and easy to setup/modify. - Thanks

Hi all, I have the following simple code for next/previous links on article pages: <!-- Next article --> <?if($page->next->id) { ?><i class="icon-chevron-left"></i> <a href="<?echo $page->next->url; ?>"> <?=${'previous_'.$countryCode}; ?></a><? } ?> <!-- /Next article --> <!-- Previous article --> <?if($page->prev->id) { ?> <a href="<?echo $page->prev->url; ?>"><?=${'next_'.$countryCode}; ?></a> <i class="icon-chevron-right"></i> <? } ?> <!-- /Previous article --> It all works correctly but there's a certain type of article I need to exclude from the next/previous links (any page that has options field 'content_type' with a value of '6'). I'm trying to figure out a way to get 'next' and 'previous' but if 'content_type' on that page has a value of '6' then skip it. Can anyone help with some clues on how this might be done? I've had a look at using the pagination code as well as looking at grabbing 'siblings' and filtering them but come to a dead end. Thanks!

Greetings I'm new to PW, and think it's fantastic! Never, ever, have I seen such an amazing CMF! Anyways, to my question: I had set some Hanna Code to render a list of page suggestions on the http404 page, which works perfectly. The problem, however, comes in when I use repeaters, which are page instances. The page suggestion renderer has the following: $suggestions = $pages->find('name|title|summary|body%='.$request); I have a page that is named services-industries, and repeaters with the word services in the name. As such, repeaters appear in the suggestion results-list if applicable to the search. How can I exclude/remove those?
