solved Possible to drop matches from PageArray based on template of parent?

[bramwolf]

Hi Guys,

I found here: https://processwire.com/docs/selectors/#finding2 that I can exclude results from my $pages->find($selctor); query by using parent!=123 ( parent ID ) But I was wondering if I can
also do so based on the parent template? I've tried doing it by itterating over the matches array and dropping the matches with the parent but since the result is limited for use with the paginator
it only drops the items from the batch displayed on this page. Say from the results within matches 0 - 20 and not the entire 0 - 220.

Anybody have a idea of how to achieve this? 🙂

Thanks in advace!

You can use subfield selectors (works both with regular fields and system properties, like template). Either of those should work:

$result = $pages->find('parent.template!=your_excluded_template');
$result = $pages->find('parent.template.name!=your_excluded_template');

I already tried that, and it didn't work, guess I did something wrong, this worked fine 🙂
