WordPress Page Tree 2.4

Author: MÃ¥ns Jonasson

Do you have a WordPress site with lots of pages in a hierarchical structure? Are you trying to use WordPress like a “real” CMS? Then this plugin is for you

Installation:

Quick and easy installation:

Upload the folder wppagetree to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory

Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

(Optional) Use the sidebar widget or the template function to display the tree on your site.

Done!

faq:

OK, so the page tree is useful in my admin area, but HOW do I display the tree on my site, for easier page navigation?

There are two ways. Simplest is to use the sidebar widget, if your template is widgetized. Simply drag the “Page tree” widget to where you want it – set its name and whether you want to display the tree collapsed or expanded by default, and if you want to show or hide the expand/collapse controls.

Or you can use the pagetree_public function which lets you use the tree anywhere on your site:

Defaults are “false” for all options, which gives you a “naked”, complete collapsed page tree.

So, just use pagetree_public() for a simple, naked tree.

What does this plugin actually do?

This plugin simply provides an easier way for administrators/authors to navigate a large collection of pages in your WordPress installation. It adds a new submenu to your “pages” navigation menu which takes you to a list of all your published pages in a collapse/expand tree.

I can’t see my unpublished/hidden pages!

Well, yes and no. The sidebar widget and template function only displays published pages, since it is meant for use on your public site. The admin tree displays ALL pages.
