Getting data from a hidden/unpublished page

[Manaus]

On page A I'm trying to get some fields data from page B, which I need to be hidden/undiscoverable. I'm using `$pages->get` method, but as soon as I make page B hidden/unpub, page A returns error.

How can I workaround this?

Thanks!

Hi. Have you tried to add include=all or include=hidden as parameter or via the options array to the get or find API calls? See API overview for details: https://processwire.com/api/ref/pages/find/

From the API doc page: 

• include (string): Optional inclusion mode of 'hidden', 'unpublished' or 'all'. (default=none). Typically you would specify this directly in the selector string, so the option is mainly useful if your first argument is not a string.

pages(1040)->title;
$pages->get(1040)->title;
$pages->findOne("id=1040, include=hidden")->title();

Here's an example dumping the title property and the status of my Demo, hidden page.

I read on the documentation about `find`:

This is functionally similar to the get() method except that its default behavior is to filter for access control and hidden/unpublished/etc. states

So `get` should fetch also unpublished pages. Still not working... I'm using it through the `child` method, I guess `child` inherits `get` functionalities right?

being 1033 the page with the children you want to get:
 

//Given than child only returns a single page, you can use sort,to for example get the newest child of 1033.
$pages->get(1033)->child("sort=-created, include=hidden");
