get_pages() order

[Ryan]

I'm clearly doing something totally daft as I can't get the following code to work:

 <?php
 
 
$pages = get_pages( 'orderby=ID' );
foreach ($pages as $pagg) {
    echo $pagg->ID . '|' .$pagg->post_title . '<br />';
}
 
?>  

That does not display page IDs/titles ordered by ID's when I use it in a theme.


Any ideas on what on earth I'm doing wrong? This is driving me nuts!


Thanks :)

... continuing my stellar habit of finding the answer AFTER I give up in desperation and turn to to the Tavern for help ...

get_pages() doesn't support orderby, only get_posts does, so the following does the trick:

 <?php


$pages = get_posts( 'orderby=menu_order&post_type=page' );
foreach ($pages as $pagg) {
    echo $pagg->ID . '|' .$pagg->post_title . '<br />';
}

?>

Did you try this:

 $pages = get_pages( 'sort_column=ID' ); 
foreach ($pages as $pagg) { 
    echo $pagg->ID . '|' .$pagg->post_title . '<br />'; 
}

Oh, thanks, that works too. I wonder why they did get_pages() and get_posts() differently.

get_pages does support ordering, but the parameter is different. This should work as well:

get_pages('sort_order'=> 'ASC', 'sort_column' => 'ID');
