    I need a menu that works like so…
    Page 1 // Hidden/ignored Subpages
    Page 2 // Hidden/ignored Subpages
    Page 3
    – Subpage 1 // Hidden/ignored Subpages
    – Subpage 2 // Current Page
    – – Deeperpage 1
    – – Deeperpage 2
    – Subpage 3
    Page 4
    Page 5 // Hidden/ignored Subpages
    Page 6 // Hidden/ignored Subpages

    Intially i thought of using the get_post_ancestors($ID) then loop through to build an array of subpages then again another loop to walk through and echo the necessary ul, li etc

    However, i have only managed to echo through one of the childs.

    Any help would be great.

  • wp_list_pages and the exclude parameters might work

    Sorted, works exactly how i wanted it to, see below.

    $ID = get_the_ID();
	$ancestors = get_post_ancestors($ID);
	$ancestors = array_reverse($ancestors);
	$ancestors[] = $ID;

	echo '<p><a href="' . get_permalink($ancestors[0]) . '"><b>' . get_the_title($ancestors[0]) . '</b></a></p>';

	$pages = get_pages('sort_column=menu_order');
	foreach ($pages as $page){
		if (!in_array($page->post_parent,$ancestors)){
			$exclude.=','.$page->ID;
		}
	}
	echo '<ul>';
	wp_list_pages('title_li=&child_of=' . $ancestors[0] . '&exclude='.$exclude.'&sort_column=menu_order');
	echo '</ul>';
