Pages field returns empty

What I try to do:
Show a list of pages of the C on the panel start page (site.yml)

My apporach:
I’m using a pages field in the site.yml and try to show subpages of the type “C”:

sections:
  ...
  content:
    type: fields
    fields:
      list:
        type: pages
        headline: My Topics
        status: all
        query: site.find('c')

The structure is as follows: A (parent) → B → C

No matter what I enter on query, it always returns empty, also with page.children, pages.find etc.

Am I missing something here? It also doesn’t work for other types, not only “C”, also doesn’t work with “B” e.g.

Do you really want a field here? If you want to show all subpages (vs. having a field to select some), a pages section would be the right approach.

A section doesn’t have a query option, though, but a parent property.

Your query doesn’t work, because site.find() will only find first level pages. So either use site.index.find('c'), or use kirby.page(‘a/b/c’)`.

thanks for your reply @moonwalk!

unfortunately iI still get no results: "no pages selected yet and when I click on it it says “Your query must return a set of pages”, no matter if I use site.index.find(‘a’) (b or c) or with kirby.page(‘a/b/c’)

is there anything else I need to make it work?

If the query returns an error, then the page you are trying to find doesn’t seem to exist.

Both

site.index.find('c')

or

kirby.page(‘a/b/c’)

The first only if the page in question is not a draft, kirby.page() will also find drafts.
