    That did it.

    Thanks!

    That’s quite a useful plugin.

    Thanks Lorelle —

    I saw that page and then forgot it. That’s helpful but, near as I can tell, doesn’t have what I seek.

    But as usual, digging a little deeper into the forum here yielded the answer. Here it is for anyone who came to this thread seeking the same thing. Seems to work, but let me know if I’m doing something stupid.

    <?php
    if( 0 != $post->post_parent ) {
    $post_title = $wpdb->get_var(“SELECT post_title from $wpdb->posts WHERE ID = $post->post_parent”);
    }

    echo $post_title; ?>

    Um — I know an upgrade wouldn’t change a theme. I’m a newbie but I read the docs.

    But an upgrade MIGHT change a function especially something as critical as the handy page lister. Which is the reason I wanted to stay away from the CODE in the FUNCTION.

    Thanks.

    For anyone coming on this thread in pursuit of a similar solution, I’m happy to report there is one, courtesy of user Roblgs (sp?).

    Works like a charm.

    Today was my first day using WordPress. I couldn’t believe how much could be accomplished in one day and how much know-how, expertise and design have been contributed.

    But the problem of foldable menus plagued me all day and you folks have solved it with this perfect plug-in. This puts WordPress one step closer to being a CMS.

    WordPress and its community are really amazing. I have never had LESS frustration with an Open Source product and I have used several.

    BTW — I don’t want to use explicit exclude= because I want this to work as I add pages.

    I did not say I wanted to avoid use of the parameters and it should have been clear from my post that I’m familiar with the page describing wp_list_pages.

    I said I wanted to avoid modifications to the wp_list_pages CODE, mainly for sake of seamless upgrades.

    So once again — is there any way to get the list I described in my first post without a Javascript hack or modifications to wp_list_pages?
