Select pages by children field

[alejandro]

Hello,

I don´t know if it is posible to find pages that have a children with name, I mean, something like:

$parent = $pages->find("template=opciones, child.name=tarjetas")
 

This of course doesn´t work, but something similar?

Thanks in advance, Alejandro.

Well, I found a way. Instead os selecting parents by children fields values, first find the pages, then select the parent:

$children = $pages->find("name=value");
foreach ($children as $child) {
   $parent = $child->parent;
}

I think you're looking for Subfield Selectors?

Mmm, but I don´t see how, as the selecting field belongs to the parent´s children, not to the parent itself; and there is no method:   "child.name=  " or something similar.

Actually you should be able to use "children.name=tarjetas", but I tested it out here and it behaves the same as "parent.name=tarjetas", so that is a bug. Looks like this is the first instance I've seen of needing to use something other than children.count. I've now fixed it, but am doing a little more testing locally before committing to dev.
