Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about List Child Pages Shortcode

Edit the child page and you'll find an excerpt section where you can enter a description that will be published on the list.

Within your functions.php file, look for the add_theme_support post-thumbnails line and add page to the array. Or if you don't have that line, you can just add it: add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails', array( 'post', 'page' ) );

There are additional class fields for the unordered list tag (ulclass), list item tag (liclass), and the anchor tag (aclass). You can modify the output utilizing your theme's CSS.
