Page Field => direct children of template page

[berechar]

Hello!

I was wondering if it's possible to restrict the selectable pages of a Page Field to the direct children of that page (using a page template containing such a field). What kind of 'selector' would be needed? Something like $page->children()?

Kind regards!

You can use "page"

"parent=page"

hmm, doesn't work unfortunately, it returns an empty list.

Try: 

parent=page.children

EDIT: Bad idea - see below

What input type are you using? PageListSelect won’t allow custom selectors or custom PHP code. The Autocomplete input type doesn’t support custom code either.

If you put return $page->children; as the custom php, it should totally work.

Yeah - I think Jan Romero's way makes more sense. I actually don't know why Soma's suggestion isn't working. My suggestion loads up a bunch of pages but it doesn't really make any sense because it will actually only find the children of the page's children, which basically means all the grandchildren - oops!

Ok "page” doesn't work but "page.id"

selector: parent=page.id

Gives you children of edited page.
