• Hi,

    I was wondering how to redirect a parent page to the first child page without using code, as I have only just started working with Word Press.

    I came across a forum that worked it out using code but i don’t understand where to put it or anything.

    The code was:

    1) Create a new template file and paste the following code into it:

    <?php
    /*
    Template Name: Redirect To First Child
    */
    if (have_posts()) {
    while (have_posts()) {
    the_post();
    $pagekids = get_pages(“child_of=”.$post->ID.”&sort_column=menu_order”);
    $firstchild = $pagekids[0];
    wp_redirect(get_permalink($firstchild->ID));
    }
    }
    ?>

    2) save and upload your new template into your theme directory.

    3) Edit your Parent page and apply the “Page Template”.

    Note: adding the page template is located down towards the bottom of the page.

    my website is https://www.dkyogacentre.com and Im trying to make the Services page go directly to the Yoga Classes page.

    If anyone could help that would be great.

    Thanks
