Hi there,

working on a project where i pull all the related pages to help with navigation.  
however i would like to exclude the current active page from the list.

what would be the best way to do this? currently toying with this function:

```
<?php foreach($pages->children()->not($activePage)->visible() as $subpage): ?>
 <?php echo $subpage->title(); ?>
<?php endforeach ?>      

```

Thankful for advice.

x

It depends on what pages you are trying to get, `not()` is probably the best option in your case. If you are trying to fetch siblings of a page, you can also set the `$self` parameter to false: [https://getkirby.com/docs/cheatsheet/page/siblings](https://getkirby.com/docs/cheatsheet/page/siblings)

thanks for the response texnixe.

what would be the best way to indicate the current active page, for the not() filter?

the pages are children of ‘Home’:

— Home  
— 1  
— 2  
— 3

Try:

```auto
$pages = page('home')->children()->not($site->activePage());
foreach($pages as $p) {
  echo $p->title():
}

```

> [@texnixe](#):

> $site-\>activePage()

works like a charm. interesting to see that activePage() work within the function.

thanks again for the guidance.

Hi, i don’t get how to apply the `$self` parameter to false on my code. Right now the current page is displaying on my list.

Here is my code:

```
<?php foreach ($projets = $page->siblings()->published() as $projet): ?>
  <?php snippet('projet-bloc', ['projet' => $projet]) ?>
<?php endforeach ?>
```

```auto
<?php foreach ($page->siblings(false)->published() as $projet): ?>
  <?php snippet('projet-bloc', ['projet' => $projet]) ?>
<?php endforeach ?>
