Loop through all children, and children's children, up to x tiers

  • The following code shows the sloppy way of accomplishing what I need. I essentially repeat the same code for as many tiers as I want to support. My logic isn’t strong enough to figure out a while loop mixed in with this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    <?php $tier1 = get_pages('hierarchical=0&parent=8&sort_column=menu_order');
				foreach ( $tier1 as $page ) { ?>

					<div class="tier_unit">1</div>

					<div class="tier1">
						<div class="tier_title">
							<?php echo $page->post_title; ?>
						</div>

						<div class="page_type">
							<img src="/wp-content/uploads/<?php the_field('page_type',$page->ID); ?>.jpg" />
						</div>
					</div>

				<?php $tier2 = get_pages('hierarchical=0&parent='.$page->ID.'&sort_column=menu_order');
					foreach ( $tier2 as $page ) { ?>

						<div class="tier_unit">2</div>

						<div class="tier2">
							<div class="tier_title">
								<?php echo $page->post_title; ?>
							</div>

							<div class="page_type">
								<img src="/wp-content/uploads/<?php the_field('page_type',$page->ID); ?>.jpg" />
							</div>

						</div>

					<?php $tier3 = get_pages('hierarchical=0&parent='.$page->ID.'&sort_column=menu_order');
						foreach ( $tier3 as $page ) { ?>

							<div class="tier_unit">3</div>

							<div class="tier3">
								<div class="tier_title">
									<?php echo $page->post_title; ?>
								</div>

								<div class="page_type">
									<img src="/wp-content/uploads/<?php the_field('page_type',$page->ID); ?>.jpg" />
								</div>

							</div>

						<?php $tier4 = get_pages('hierarchical=0&parent='.$page->ID.'&sort_column=menu_order');
							foreach ( $tier4 as $page ) { ?>

								<div class="tier_unit">4</div>

								<div class="tier4">
									<div class="tier_title">
										<?php echo $page->post_title; ?>
									</div>

									<div class="page_type">
										<img src="/wp-content/uploads/<?php the_field('page_type',$page->ID); ?>.jpg" />
									</div>

								</div>

							<?php $tier5 = get_pages('hierarchical=0&parent='.$page->ID.'&sort_column=menu_order');
								foreach ( $tier5 as $page ) { ?>

									<div class="tier_unit">5</div>

									<div class="tier5">
										<div class="tier_title">
											<?php echo $page->post_title; ?>
										</div>

										<div class="page_type">
											<img src="/wp-content/uploads/<?php the_field('page_type',$page->ID); ?>.jpg" />
										</div>

									</div>

									<?php $tier6 = get_pages('hierarchical=0&parent='.$page->ID.'&sort_column=menu_order');
										foreach ( $tier6 as $page ) { ?>

											<div class="tier_unit">6</div>

											<div class="tier6">
												<div class="tier_title">
													<?php echo $page->post_title; ?>
												</div>

											<div class="page_type">
												<img src="/wp-content/uploads/<?php the_field('page_type',$page->ID); ?>.jpg" />
											</div>

											</div>

											<?php $tier7 = get_pages('hierarchical=0&parent='.$page->ID.'&sort_column=menu_order');
												foreach ( $tier7 as $page ) { ?>

													<div class="tier_unit">7</div>

													<div class="tier7">

														<div class="tier_title">
															<?php echo $page->post_title; ?>
														</div>

														<div class="page_type">
															<img src="/wp-content/uploads/<?php the_field('page_type',$page->ID); ?>.jpg" />
														</div>

													</div>

										<?php } //Tier 7 ?>

									<?php } //Tier 6 ?>

								<?php } //Tier 5 ?>

							<?php } //Tier 4 ?>

						<?php } //Tier 3 ?>

					<?php } //Tier 2 ?>

				<?php } //Tier 1 ?>

    I sold this and feel like an idiot!
    I combined get_pages with get_ancestors to count the tiers and it works flawlessly!!!

    <?php $hierarchy = get_pages('child_of=8&sort_column=menu_order');

			foreach ( $hierarchy as $page ) {
				$acount = count(get_ancestors($page->ID, 'page'));

			?>

			<div class="tier_unit"><?php echo $acount; ?></div>

				<div class="tier<?php echo $acount; ?>">
					<div class="tier_title">
						<?php echo $page->post_title; ?>
					</div>

					<div class="page_type">
						<img src="/wp-content/uploads/<?php the_field('page_type',$page->ID); ?>.jpg" />
					</div>
				</div>

			<?php } ?>
