Trying to find the parents

[opalepatrick]

Hi, 

I am trying to do this:

if ($page->parents->has("by-usage")) {

where I know the parent name exists and is called by-usage. Is this correct as I am not getting an error nor an expected result?

Thanks for the help.

opalepatrick, 

$page->parents returns a pageArray, so you need to check for the id instead of the name.

Me thinks.

Scratch that, there is some fancier stuff that goes here there than I remembered.

has() needs a page object.

$parentPage = $pages->get("/path/to/parent/");

if ($page->parents->has($parentPage)){

I don't think that works. You can use any selector though so this should work:

if ($page->parents->has("name=by-usage")) {

This is also fine:

if ($page->find("name=by-usage")->count()) {

Nice one diogo, I completely forgot you can use selectors.

Thanks renobird and diogo.

That worked a treat!

I spent far too long on that
