# Add a page programatically

 * Hi,
    I would like to define a page in my theme – to show a list of links. I would
   also like to hide it from the Admin > Pages menu. It should still appear in the
   wp_list_pages() though. Is there a way to do this?
 * pseudo code:
 *     ```
       wp_define_page(
         array(
           'title'='Links',
           'template'='page-links.tpl.php'
           'show_in_wpadmin'=FALSE))
       ```

 * I have found an example that hides a page from the wp-admin > Pages menu, and
   added the page and set the template file manually.
 *     ```
       //Exclude pages from the wp-admin > Pages menu
       add_filter( 'parse_query', 'exclude_pages_from_admin' );
       function exclude_pages_from_admin($query) {
           global $pagenow,$post_type;
           if (is_admin() && $pagenow=='edit.php' && $post_type =='page') {
               $query->query_vars['post__not_in'] = array('47');
           }
       }
       ```
