Functions:pageChildrenGet

Description

Retrieves page and product data on child pages.

Syntax

$arrChildren= eV::pageChildrenGet($pageId[,$fieldList][,$orderBy][,$orderDir][,$orderType]);

Paramaters

• $pageId INT

unique database assigned page id of the parent page whos children you would like to retrieve

• $fieldList STRING (optional)

comma delimited list of field names you would like returned. leaving this value empty will return all fields, though this is not recommended as it could significantly reduce system performance. Page custom fields can be requested by prepending the custom field name with "custom_field_" (example: to include the "myVar" custom field, add "custom_field_myVar" to the $fieldList).

• $orderBy STRING (optional)

field to order by. This field must be present in the $fieldList. defaults to 'orderId' which corresponds to the order the children are listed in relationships management for the parent $pageId

• $orderDir STRING (optional)

Either "ASC" or "DESC" signifying the direction of the sorted results. Defaults to "DESC".

• $orderType STRING (optional)

Either "str" or "num" signifying how the values will be compared when sorting the results. Defaults to "str"

Return Values

Returns a multidimensional array of child page data. The first dimension is a numerically indexed array of each child (starting from 0). The second dimension is an associative array of keys corresponding to the fields requested in the $fieldList attribute.

The returned array is as follows (all possible fields are listed, note that only fields requested will be returned):
