In includes/post.php you will find the following chunk of code beginning in line 2190 :

(At least in WordPress version 2.7.1 you will – line numbers may vary for other versions)

if ( !empty($exclude_tree) ) {
$exclude = array();

$exclude = (int) $exclude_tree;
$children = get_page_children($exclude, $pages);
$excludes = array();
foreach ( $children as $child )
$excludes[] = $child->ID;
$excludes[] = $exclude;
$total = count($pages);
for ( $i = 0; $i < $total; $i++ ) {
if ( in_array($pages[$i]->ID, $excludes) )
unset($pages[$i]);
}
}

The problem is that the exclude_tree argument is not handled like a list of parameters, but merely as a single integer argument. I learned this after trying to build a menu for ttu.no by excluding a number of chapters, that should not go on the front page. Well, I got a nice surprise when even my elaborate exclude list only worked on the first section and my menu totally filled the front page.

But I found the problem, and have a solution – by updating the code as below, everything will work as expected:

if ( !empty($exclude_tree) ) {
$exclude = array();

$exclude = explode(‘,’,$exclude_tree);
foreach ($exclude as $exclude_page) {
$children = get_page_children($exclude_page, $pages);
$excludes = array();
foreach ( $children as $child )
$excludes[] = $child->ID;
$excludes[] = $exclude_page;
$total = count($pages);
for ( $i = 0; $i < $total; $i++ ) {
if ( in_array($pages[$i]->ID, $excludes) )
unset($pages[$i]);
}
}
}

Now, this is my first “real” contribution to the open source world – I wish I knew how to use TRAQ, so I could fix this directly in the repository as well 🙂

Please send me a pointer if you know how to work with the TRAQ system.

Kind regards

Just tried it. This works out of the box – thanks to cogo

I am not sure if this is what you are looking for, but I built a similar system for my static pages some time ago.

See this link: <http://brams.dk/technotes/wordpress/my-first-plugin/&gt; – you should find explanation in the php file as well.

Kind regards

I have done this for my local Taekwondo Club website. It’s really not a lot you will have to do and I have tried to be very specific documenting.

See the step by step instruction at :

Hope this is useful.

After disabling the troublesome plugin that was calling get_currentuserinfo() the upgrade went just fine.

Looks great – thanks for all the hard work and for making sure that you reminded all of us to back up the existing tables as step 1 in the upgrade guide

🙂

Sh*t!

My website just doesn’t work anymore after the upgrade. I cannot even login to the admin part. It looked so promising, but there must have been some compatability issue with wp_users_online that I used.

That is probably the most disappointing upgrade I have ever made.

The error message is:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: get_currentuserinfo() in /customers/brams.dk/brams.dk/httpd.www/wordpress/wp-blog-header.php on line 169

Let me know if there is anything I can do to avoid starting from scratch again.
