Try it like this: $args = array( ‘post_parent’ => $parentid, ‘post_type’ => ‘custom-type’ ); $posts = get_posts( $args ); if (is_array($posts) && count($posts) > 0) { // Delete all the Children of the Parent Page foreach($posts as $post){ wp_delete_post($post->ID, true); } } // Delete the Parent Page wp_delete_post($parentid, true);
Add this code to your functions.php. An explanation of the code is given below. function wpb_list_child_pages() { global $post; $id = ( is_page() && $post->post_parent ) ? $post->post_parent : $post->ID; $childpages = wp_list_pages( ‘sort_column=menu_order&title_li=&child_of=” . $id . “&echo=0’ ); //you can add `&depth=1` in the end, so it only shows one level if ( $childpages … Read more

There are numerous ways of getting pages to list out in a child-like order – WP Menus. Use that instead, and you will cause less stress on your WordPress installation – having to … Read more
In answer to my own question: It turns out the WordPress permalink structure works perfectly well for custom types, e.g. example.com/recipes/lunch/sandwich/.

What I was originally trying to do was unnecessarily difficult to execute, and requires properly setting up a custom permalink structure to avoid … Read more
Loop that displays PARENT PAGE & CHILD PAGE & outputs GRANDCHILD PAGE title and content
I suggest a hierarchical custom post type and a conditional to create an additional loop on your single-{cpt}.php. By using hierarchical custom post type, you can create a sub-cpt , like a sub page as the stats part of it’s parent post. The sub-cpt then can be used to store additional data (e.g. in post_content … Read more
I had the same issue on a site that I have inherited developer duties for. I found that with the Classic Editor Plugin Disabled although parent pages were still missing from the dropdown – I was able to key them in to the attributes box (with the Classic Editor Plugin enabled – direct keyed entry … Read more
