HELP! wp_list_pages() only works before wp_head()

  • I have been banging my head with a list of pages that only worked in one place but not the other, being THE SAME include (same code).

    So I started moving it up and down to see what tag was breaking it, and it’s the wp_head() tag!

    The one on the header.php file works, and the one on index.php doesn’t.

    I would assume wp_list_pages was mostly designed to list pages in the content section, which is always out the wp_head().

    Any idea what is breaking it?

  • what plugins do you have which might hook their code into ‘wp_head’?

    i.e. if you deactivate all plugins, does the ‘wp_list_pages()’ work in index.php?

    you have tag this topic with ‘excerpt’, ‘recent’, ‘sidebar’, etc – what has that to do with your problem?

    what theme are you using?

    it could help if you paste the code of header.php and index.php into a https://pastebin.com/ each and post the links to these here.

    You’re right. I’ll test my plugins. I know wp_head() does more than just calling the header, but I honestly though that all the plugins are loaded even before wp_head(), so I disregarded it.

    Believe me. It has nothing to do with the theme. I made it myself from scratch, as well as the functions, and yet I’ve removed partial and whole code, switched templates, created a page for the home, used the same code in different template_types and the ONLY thing that worked was moving the line just below the wp_head().

    I just un-installed all the ones I can live without, but the following are a MUST and I’m afraid to un-install them ( except the domain mapper and broadcaster, I have used the rest in the past, no problems )

    I’ll install this same theme in another blog and I’ll update tonight.
