Just a quick one today… I have just checked in an update to the SB Child List plugin. It has been hugely popular with the WordPress community with only the one complaint to date… the reliance on the GUID field in the wp_posts table.
For some reason WordPress does not update this field often enough and it leads to broken links. I have updated the plugin to use the get_permalink function which I understand to work correctly in more recent versions of WordPress. I have also fixed a bug with the nesting level not saving correctly on the settings page.
Enjoy the release and please do let me know if you think the plugin can benefit from an update.


hi,
I am using [sb_parent] in soem of my pages.
And I have a comment template similar to my guestbook entry to allow people to comment on the page.
When I use [sb_parent], since the upgrade, the comment fields no longer show.
Example:
Comment form working fine: http://irishpinkadoptions.com/us/guestbook/
Comment form not working:
http://irishpinkadoptions.com/reference-material/your-story/deciding-to-adopt/when-did-you-decide-to-adopt/
Commet form made to work by removing the [sb_parent]:
http://irishpinkadoptions.com/reference-material/your-story/deciding-to-adopt/whose-advice-did-you-seek-to-make-your-decision/
Same using the child shortcut: http://irishpinkadoptions.com/reference-material/your-story/
This was not happening before you released your new version. (Which was great at resolving the permalink issue)
I found that you need to add this change or you get the “revisions” listed as pages:
$sql = ‘SELECT ID, post_title, post_type
FROM ‘ . $wpdb->posts . ‘
WHERE
post_status = \’publish\’
AND post_parent = ‘ . $id . ‘
ADD THIS LINE —> AND post_type = \’page\’
Hi Diego,
My apologies, I thought I had done that. It’s in now and shall commit/update the version shortly.
thanks

Just installed it, getting fatal error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_the_post_thumbnail() in /home/sitesubs/public_html/wp-content/plugins/sb-child-list/sb_child_list.php on line 166
WP3.1
Hi MileHighTechGuy,
Yes sorry about that. I added the code and of course it worked for me having the appropriate plugin but I overlooked the fact that it wouldn’t work elsewhere. I have fixed it for the current release so shouldn’t happen any more.
thanks
Sean
I installed the plugin as this was a perfect long sought solution for a problem. But the shortcodes [sb_child_list] and [sb_parent] just don’t work. [sb_cat_list category=CatName] does work, though.
Please help.
Also, the output comes in very small, basic (courier) font. How to change that?
Hi Gabriel, can you email me directly at barton.sean@gmail.com and I can help you through setting it up.
thanks
Sean
