<p>CC Child Pages displays WordPress child pages of any parent page in a responsive grid or list layout, making it easy to display hierarchical page structures, subpages and navigation.</p>
<p>You can use it in page content, widget areas, or templates using:</p>
<ul>
<li>the <code>[child_pages]</code> shortcode,</li>
<li>the <strong>CC Child Pages</strong> Gutenberg block, or</li>
<li>the <strong>CC Child Pages</strong> Elementor widget (when Elementor is active).</li>
</ul>
<p>All output methods use a modern CSS system based on CSS variables and flexible grid layouts for improved theme compatibility. For older or heavily customised themes, a Legacy CSS mode is available — either by checking the <strong>Use Legacy CSS</strong> option in the block or Elementor sidebar, or by setting <code>use_legacy_css="true"</code> in the shortcode.</p>
<p>This makes it ideal for building sub-navigation sections, page directories, or visual site maps.</p>

<h3>How It Works</h3>
<h4>Gutenberg Block</h4>
<p>Insert the <strong>CC Child Pages</strong> block in the editor. Configure:</p>
<ul>
<li>Parent page</li>
<li>Columns</li>
<li>Thumbnails</li>
<li>Excerpt display</li>
<li>Sorting</li>
<li>Legacy CSS toggle</li>
</ul>
<p>The block provides a live preview while editing.</p>
<h4>Elementor Widget</h4>
<p>If <strong>Elementor</strong> is installed and active, a <strong>CC Child Pages</strong> widget becomes available.</p>
<p>The widget is located inside the <strong>CC Plugins</strong> category within the Elementor panel.</p>
<p>You can:</p>
<ul>
<li>Select the parent page</li>
<li>Choose columns (1–6)</li>
<li>Enable thumbnails and lazy loading</li>
<li>Control excerpt display</li>
<li>Configure sorting</li>
<li>Enable Legacy CSS if required</li>
</ul>
<p>All shortcode options are available via intuitive controls in the Elementor sidebar.</p>
<p>The widget renders the same output structure as the shortcode and block, ensuring consistent styling across editors.</p>
<h4>Shortcode</h4>
<p>Insert:</p>
<pre><code>[child_pages]
</code></pre>
<p>By default, this displays the child pages of the current page.</p>
<p>To enable legacy styling:</p>
<pre><code>[child_pages use_legacy_css="true"]
</code></pre>
<p>The shortcode supports detailed layout and query control, documented below.</p>
