I'm using subpages on a WP site as follows;

Products (Parent Page)
-Office (Subpage 1)
--Office Gallery (Child of Subpage 1)
-School (Subpage 2)
--School Gallery (Child of Subpage 2)
....etc

How can I create a link on each subpage to its child page using just one template in my theme? I need to be able to give this link a css class name. In other words I need to have the code in my page template look something like

<a class="gallery-button" href="RETURN LINK TO CHILD PAGE OF CURRENT PAGE"></a>

or something like that......

I tried using wp_list_pages for a child page from the WordPress Codex but this returns a list and I really need just the permalink to the child page.

Is this easy? Impossible?

Thanks in advance.

You can do it by giving your pages tag id's.

<body id="products_sub">

Then use jquery or javascript to determine whether a page is a subpage and if it is then those links will link to it's parent..

My jquery/javascript isn't very strong but it would be something along these lines:


if($("body").attr("id", "products_sub")) {
	 a.class_name.attr("src", "products.php");
}

I might be wrong but you can try playing around with that.
