I'm working on the navigation in a wordpress theme (done in the sidebar) and I can't figure out how to make the list of pages only show the subpages for the current page and other page's subpages not to be shown.

thus far I've been trying to figure out a way to do it with: wp_list_pages(' title_li' ); but to no avail

here's an Example:

Pages:
-home <--- on this one
-subpage1
-subpage2
-Blog
-FAQ

Pages:
-home
-Blog
-FAQ<--- on this one
-subpage1
-subpage2

Pages:
-home
-Blog<---on this one (no subpages)
-FAQ

It's all there in the codex http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_list_pages#List_subpages_even_if_on_a_subpage

To list just the children of the current page (or its siblings if already on a child page):

<?php
  if($post->post_parent)
  $children = wp_list_pages(\"title_li=&child_of=\".$post->post_parent.\"&echo=0\");
  else
  $children = wp_list_pages(\"title_li=&child_of=\".$post->ID.\"&echo=0\");
  if ($children) { ?>
  <ul>
  <?php echo $children; ?>
  </ul>
  <?php } ?>

Actually this can be achieved using just a little css - and it will work exactly as in your example too.

<ul id=\"pagenav\">
<?php wp_list_pages(\"title_li=&depth=2\"); ?>
</ul>

ul#pagenavi li ul { display: none; }
ul#pagenavi li.current_page_item ul, ul#pagenavi li.current_page_ancestor ul { display: block; }

The first one only shows the subpage

the CSS one looks like it would work but I haven't tested that one yet,

Thanks you both for you time =)
