In Depth Page Menus And Page Listings

Jeff Starr who is one of the co-authors for the book Digging Into WordPress has published a great article that goes in depth on various ways on how to display WordPress pages.

The first, most-commonly used tag is wp_list_pages(), and the second, lesser-known tag is wp_page_menu(). First we’ll explore the highly flexible wp_list_pages() template tag, and then we’ll dig into the new wp_page_menu() tag. Along the way, we’ll check out some delicious recipes, tips and tricks for creating the perfect WordPress Page Menu.

On the topic of pages, we’ve had two interesting threads popup in the forum. This one which deals with wp_page_menu and this one which asks the question what the constraints are for WordPress pages.
