get_pages – Show grandchildren pages but exclude parent

Try it with this [untested]:

<?php
$mypages = get_pages( array( 'child_of' => 2, 'sort_column' => 'post_date', 'sort_order' => 'desc' ) );

			foreach( $mypages as $page ) {

			if($page->post_parent != 2){
				$content = $page->post_content;
				if ( ! $content ) // Check for empty page
					continue;

				$content = apply_filters( 'the_content', $content );
			?>

		<h2><a href="<?php echo get_page_link( $page->ID ); ?>"><?php echo get_the_post_thumbnail($page->ID, 'thumbnail'); ?><?php echo $page->post_title; ?></a>
		</h2>

			<?php
			}
			}
		?>

Hey keesiemeijer, this worked perfectly!! Thanks so much!

So I’m guessing it’s the post_parent bit that does the trick?

This was so helpful, thanks for taking the time to help. Really appreciate it.

You’re welcome. I’m glad you got it resolved ??

Correct.

Hello

I want to show the child pages as tabbed content and each of the child page may or may not have sub-child Pages or if i should say grand child page of the Parent Page. I want a loop or a wp query that can show these sub-pages of the child Pages to show their thumbnails or image fetched through a custom field to show in a row and when user clicks on these images it opens the content of that particular sub-Page
in a lightbox or fancybox.
So i have a code that shows these child pages as tabs. So if there’s a

Parent Page
– Child A
— Grand Child A
— Grand Child B

– Child B
— Grand Child 1
— Grand Child 2

All these child Pages are showing on the Parent Page as Tabs. I want if the tab content for Child A is showing which is default the grand child pages of child A – means Grand Child A, Grand Child B … should display as a row showing the images placed using a custom field. So when a user clicks that thumbnail i want this Grand Child A content to open in lightbox or fancybox. And if user clicks Child B tab then the grand child pages show – , Grand Child 2, … and on click of the images for Grand Child 1 or 2 its respective content should open in a lightbox or fancy box.

The code that i am using to show the child Pages on Parent Page as tabs is :

<ul class="nav nav-tabs" id="myTab">
<?php
$pages = get_pages('child_of='.$post->ID.'&sort_column=post_date&hierarchical=0&sort_order=desc&parent='.$post->ID);
$count = 0;
foreach($pages as $page)
{
    $content = $page->post_content;
    if(!$content)
        continue;
    if($count >= 100)
        break;
    $count++;
    $content = apply_filters('the_content', $content);
?>

<li>
<a>"><?php echo $page->post_title ?></a>
</li>
<?php } ?>

<div class="tab-content">

<?php
    $pages = get_pages('child_of='.$post->ID.'&sort_column=post_date&hierarchical=0&sort_order=desc&parent='.$post->ID);
    $count = 0;
    foreach($pages as $page)
    {
        $content = $page->post_content;
        if(!$content)
            continue;
        if($count >= 100)
            break;
        $count++;
        $content = apply_filters('the_content', $content);
    ?>

<div class="tab-pane" id="<?php echo $count ?>">
<?php echo $content ?>
</div>

<?php } ?>

</div>
