{exp:playa:siblings}

You can use the {exp:playa:siblings} tag pair to loop through entries that share a common parent with other entries.

<ul class="photo-nav">
    {exp:playa:siblings entry_id="{segment_3}" parent_id="{segment_2}"}
        <li><a href="{path={channel_short_name}/{url_title}}">{title}</a></li>
    {/exp:playa:siblings}
</ul>

Tag Parameters

{exp:playa:siblings} supports almost all of {exp:channel:entries}’ tag parameters, as well as the following:

entry_id
The main entry’s ID(s). If your tag is within an {exp:channel:entries} tag pair, this will default to the current entry’s ID.
sibling_id
The sibling entry ID(s) to include. Prefix with “not ” to define entries to exclude instead.
parent_id
The parent entry ID(s) that the siblings must have in common. Prefix with “not ” to define entries to exclude instead.
field
The Playa field’s name where the relationships were made, or the Matrix field’s name if your Playa field lives within a Matrix field.
field_id
The Playa field’s ID where the relationships were made, or the Matrix field’s ID if your Playa field lives within a Matrix field.
col
The Matrix column’s name where the relationships were made.
col_id
The Matrix column’s ID where the relationships were made.
row_id
The Matrix row’s ID where the relationships were made.
var_prefix
Tells Playa to only parse variables that have a certain prefix. This is handy when you’re dealing with variable name conflicts, such as if you’re pulling in an entry with its own Playa tag.

Note: By default, siblings will be ordered by the number of common parents they share with the original entry. You can override that with the orderby param.

Note: Playa sets the disable tag parameter to “categories|category_fields|member_data|pagination” by default. So if you want to display categories, member data, or pagination tags in your Playa tag pair, you’ll need to override that parameter.

Variable Tags

{exp:playa:siblings} supports almost all of {exp:channel:entries}’ conditional variables, single variables, and variable pairs, as well as the following:

{if no_siblings} … {/if}
Outputs the contents only when there are no sibling entries returned.
