    Hi @webvitaly,

    Thanks for this plugin. I have been using this for few months. This is an unique plugin, and one of the best plugins I have for my site.

    May I ask for a function addon with depth level for pagelist_ext please? I have 3 level of pages for products.
    1) Purpose
    2) Type
    3) Products
    The problem is now it shows all the 3rd level pages when I use the [pagelist_ext] on the first, and I dont want to use the ID.

    In case its impossible to do so, I will have to amend it as 2 levels without the purposes, or using ID.

    Many thanks!

    [pagelist_ext] shortcode is not very flexible with depth levels.
    You may have only 2 options: first level (top-level pages) or all infinite depth (pages from all levels).

    [pagelist_ext] is based on get_pages() function and there is no easy way to control the depth param with it.

    Understood, thanks very much for your reply.
    I have decided to keep it as 3 levels structure because of the following reasons:

    1. I dont want too many top-level pages shown on the admin panel (using plugin to hide the sub-pages)
    2. would like to show the “purpose”(top-level pages) on the breadcrumbs for better viewer experience.
    3. SEO issue, Im showing the parent pages on the meta title for more information.

    Finally, I found a solution of this, by using parent=(itself). The sub-subpages of the subpages will not be shown by this way, and all the pages are automatically added without further amendment. (I love auto adding)

    Thanks very much again for this helpful plugin. Its always appreciated of a meaningful plugin author replying, and welcome for our comments.

    Love this plugin!
