Additional Shortcode params

    Hi – great plugin. Searched previous entries and had a couple of people with similar queries but didn’t quite understand the solution.

    I’m trying to A-Z all CHILD pages of a specific page using just the shortcode.
    I’m using the [a-z-listing] shortcode and can’t find any params which would allow me to ignore top level pages.

    Do I need to use the a theme template and modify the query (happy to do so) – just wanted to check before I do the additional work.

    As a feature request, if this doesn’t exist, it would be nice to do something like:

    [a-z-listing parent=”current”]

    which would then just show the A-Z for child pages one level below.

    Thanks in advance,

    Alex

    Hi, presently the plugin is set up to display children pages of a top-level page when:

    – the post-type selected for display is “page” (this is set by default)
    – the a-z-listing shortcode is on a child page of that top-level page
    – the a-z-listing is NOT on a top-level page
    – the children to be shown share the same top-level ancestor with the page upon which the shortcode is used.

    The way it currently works is a throw-back to the requirements I had when developing the initial functionality for a client site I haven’t developed a good plan to re-work it to be more friendly, without breaking sites already using it as is, yet.
