February 21, 2008: Version 1.2. Bug-fix to ensure that it works with the new datastructure in the latest versions of WordPress. A huge thank you to Will Howells<\/a> for fixing this.<\/em><\/p>\n

September 16, 2006: Version 1.1. Bug-fix to ensure that it ‘remembers’ your root page when the Widget page is updated.<\/em><\/p>\n

Here’s the first of two new WordPress Widgets, and, for the first time, it’s not Lib Dem specific.<\/p>\n

It lets you show a subsection of the pages of your WordPress blog. The options page for the widget shows a drop-down box of all the pages in your blog. Select one of them and only pages below that will be displayed by the widget on the menu.<\/p>\n

I’m using it on Make IT Policy<\/a> to have a menu section that only shows the pages of the Make IT Policy policy paper.<\/p>\n

You can find the Widget here<\/del><\/a> on the WordPress website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you already have widgets installed as part of your WordPress installation, you can try this widget out yourself. All you need to do to use it:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Download the ldpagehierarchy.zip file<\/a>, extract the ldpagehierarchy.php file and save it or upload it into your widget plug-ins directory.<\/li>\n
  2. Go into the ‘Plugins’ area of your WordPress installation and activate the ‘Sub page hierarchy’ widget.<\/li>\n
  3. Go into the ‘Sidebar Widgets’ section of the ‘Presentation’ area of WordPress, and drag your new ‘Sub page hierarchy’ widget to the desired location.<\/li>\n
  4. Hit the configure icon, select the page that is the parent of the pages you want to show in your page hierarchy and then close the configuration box.<\/li>\n
  5. Hit ‘Save Changes’<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    er, that’s it.<\/p>\n

    If you don’t have widgets installed, head off to Automaticc’s Widgets project page<\/a> and follow their extremely helpful instructions on how to install widgets and add them to your blog template. <\/p>\n

    You can find lots of useful widgets via the WordPress Widgets blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n
