Title: Sub page problem Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # Sub page problem * [alst](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alst/) * (@alst) * [17 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-page-problem/) * Hi there, * I want to do the following, * if a user clicks on a page that is a sub-page of a top level parent page, then page.php should call a certain header. If the parent page is different then a different header is called. There are only two top level pages that I want this to happen on, so using the code from the codex page I tried this, * ``` post_parent=="65") { $subpagefix="/header-resources.php"; } elseif (is_page() || $post->post_parent=="221") { $subpagefix="/header-quickref.php"; } else { $subpagefix="/header.php" ; // Fall-through } ?> ``` * So this seems to work for the page 65, but subpages of page 221 call the header- resources.php. * What have i done wrong?

Maybe this helps… cheers wearitwell * Thread Starter [alst](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alst/) * (@alst) * [17 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-page-problem/#post-844915) * This is the definitive fix which allows sub-sub pages to also call the right header. * Makes use of the fold_page_list plugin. * ``` get_queried_object_id(); $ancestorIDs = _wswwpx_page_get_ancestor_ids($g_page_id); $grandParent = $ancestorIDs[1]; ?> ``` Viewing 3 replies - 1 through 3 (of 3 total) The topic ‘Sub page problem’ is closed to new replies. * In: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) * 3 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [alst](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alst/) * Last activity: [17 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-page-problem/#post-844915) * Status: not resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
