found a solution using WP_Query() instead of get_pages, I managed to include get_template_part( ‘content’, ‘page’ ); so now I’m keeping the original formatting of twentyfourteen.
the query looks like:
<?php
$args=array(
'post_type' => 'page',
'orderby' => 'menu_order',
'order' => 'DESC'
);
// the query
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args ); ?>
<?php if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) :
while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post();
get_template_part( 'content', 'page' );
endwhile;
wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
<?php else : ?>
<p><?php _e( 'Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.' ); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>
