 * Hello, I’m trying to build a subnavigation for a WP powered website. I’m using
   the bare Starkers theme which should be based on Twenty-Ten.
 * I’ve managed to get a subnav listing all children pages, using the tags provided
   in the docs, so now I have the following code inside my header.php template:
 *     ```
       <?php if($post->post_parent)
       	$children = wp_list_pages("title_li=&child_of=".$post->post_parent."&echo=0"); else
       	$children = wp_list_pages("title_li=&child_of=".$post->ID."&echo=0");
   
       	if ($children && is_page()) { ?>
   
       	<ul id="subnav">
       		<?php echo $children; ?>
       	</ul>
       <?php } else { ?>
       <?php } ?>
       ```
   
 * So now if I’m on the parent page I have a nice subnav listing all my children
   pages, and if I’m on a child page I get all the other children pages listed –
   nice! But my problem is that if I’m on a post single page, ie. mysite.com/parent/
   child/yyyy/mm/post-title/ then no subnavigation bar is shown.
    How can I get 
   a subnav on a single post page? Is it possible to achieve this without any plug-
   in? I’m a complete newbie, and I don’t know much about php or wp-tags, so this
   may be a silly question, but I’ve searched the forum and didn’t find any clue…
