Re: [Radiant] and page children

Thu, 14 Sep 2006 08:37:14 -0700

I've been following this thread, but haven't replied yet.  The problem may be a tag scoping issue, and maybe a custom tag is in need here.

tag "children:random" do |tag|
  children = tag.locals.children
  if children.size > 0
    index = rand(children.size)
    tag.locals.page = children[index]
    tag.expand
  end
end

Then in your page, write

<r:children:random /><r:title /></r:children:random>

or just
<r:children:random:title />

This will only select one child page, mind you, and would need to be modified to select more than one.

Unfortunately that is the same code I posted :) (except for the limit attribute of random, that doesn't exist).

Ah. So something like this? If such a thing would work.
<r:random limit="1" >

  <r:children:each>
    <r:option><r:title /></r:option>
  </r:children:each>
</r:random>

The code you wrote should grab the title of the first child (in a list made by all the children ordered in ascending order by published_at).

Does this work?
<r:children:each limit="1">
  <r:random>
    <r:option><r:title /></r:option>
  </r:random>
</r:children:each>

That would be grabbing one random title from children pages, correct?
I haven't tried it myself, so I might be wrong.
