Trying to found page->children

[ankh2054]

Hi all,

I am trying to count the child pages of the current page, but Im doing something wrong and I don't quite understand what that is.

$total = $pages->count("$page->children");

I have also tried the following

$total = $pages->count($page->children);

could someone help please

Found another way, but would be interested to know how it would work the other way.

<? echo count($page->children) ?>

[teppo]

$pages->count() is used to count pages matching given selector string, such as $pages->count("template=basic-page"). $page->children returns children of given page (PageArray object), not a selector string.

You can also use built-in property "numChildren":

<?php echo $page->numChildren; ?>
