Basic navigation by templates

[luckybusted]

Hey Guys I got a very basic and hopefully simple question about Templates.

I need to display all Pages with a special template (e.g. "location_category") in my Navigation.

My solution now:

$location_cat = $template->get("location_category");

foreach($location_cat as $lc) {

echo"<li><a href="{$li->url}">{$lc->title}</a></li>";

}

but this doesn't work.

Anyone a solution?

$location_cat = $pages->find('template=location_category');

...and then your foreach.

If it would be more complicated it wouldnt be processwire ...

Thanx a lot!

Me again,

but what if I want to find two ore three different templates? Something like: 

$location_cat = $pages->find('template=location_category, spot_category');

?

Hi lucky,

For OR use the pipe | symbol. So, if you want pages that have one of three templates, do this:

$location_cat = $pages->find('template=location_category|spot_category|another_category');

This is documented here http://processwire.com/api/selectors/. A great read

Great, thank you guys!

I know the API site and allready tried to read it. But sometimes its just nicer to ask and =)
