Linking to the latest page which is a child of a specific page

  • Hi all!

    I have this code that returns the thumbnail of this post.

    <?php
    if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();
        if (has_post_thumbnail()) :
            	the_post_thumbnail('no-scale-thumb');
        endif;
    endwhile; endif; 
?>

    Now I am trying to wrap this thumbnail image with a link to the last-published page that is a child of another page (id=13). So when a user clicks on the image he’s taken to the latest recipe (recipes are published as children of Recipes page).

    Your help is appreciated. Thank you!

  • Maybe try something like this: 

    // WP_Query arguments
$args = array(
	'post_parent'            => '13',
	'nopaging'               => true,
	'posts_per_page'         => '1',
	'order'                  => 'DESC',
	'orderby'                => 'date',
);

// The Query
$query = new WP_Query( $args );

// The Loop
if ( $query->have_posts() ) {
	while ( $query->have_posts() ) {
		$query->the_post();
		if (has_post_thumbnail()) :
            	?>
            	<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>">
            		<?php the_post_thumbnail('no-scale-thumb'); ?>
            	</a>
        <?php
        endif;
	}
} else {
	// no posts found
}

// Restore original Post Data
wp_reset_postdata();
