Preventing a page being shown in the page list

Use the exclude= argument with the template tag, wp_list_pages().

Thanks, but the pages aren’t listed using wp_list_pages(). This is the code:

<ul class=”navigation”>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

• post_name?>”><span><?php the_title(); ?></span>

<?php endwhile;?>

Any other suggestions?

After this:

<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

put

if (! '34' == $post->ID) (

and just before:

<?php endwhile;?>
put

}
`

But there might be some other code just before the code you listed that would make it easier (like a get_posts where you could use the post__not_in argument).

I can’t get it working. See the navigation directly above the white box: https://andrewlilley.com/surveydeck/

BTW, did you mean to put a ‘{‘ in your code instead of a ‘(‘? This still doesn’t work.

The original code I have is:

<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php query_posts('post_type=page&order=asc'); ?>		

<div id="page">
	<div id="slider">
		<ul class="navigation">
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
			<li><a href="#<?=$post->post_name?>"><span><?php the_title(); ?></span></a></li>
<?php endwhile;?>
		</ul>

		<div class="scrollButtons scrollMeLeft"><a><span>previous</span></a></div>

		<div class="scroll">
			<div class="scrollContainer">
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
				<div class="panel" id="<?=$post->post_name?>">
					<h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
					<?php the_content(); ?>
				</div>
<?php endwhile;?>
			</div>
		</div>

		<div class="scrollButtons scrollMeRight"><a><span>next</span></a></div>

	</div>
</div>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Alternately, you could create the page as normal. Then go to the page, and click “View page source”. Copy the entire thing and save it as whatever you want the title to be. Upload that file to your server directly using ftp. Then delete the page in wordpress.

This might be better.

Change

<?php query_posts('post_type=page&order=asc'); ?>

to

<?php
$args=array(
      'post__not_in' => array(1,2,3),
      'post_type' => 'page',
      'order' => 'ASC',
      'orderby' => 'title'
    );
 query_posts($args);
?>

and forget what I put in the previous comments…

Thanks Michael, that worked! Great help!

Brian, thanks, but maybe that wouldn’t have worked – the page contains a forum plugin… ?
