Link to childs of a node: How to exclude everything but folders?

Hello, I've spent several hours configuring EZPublish and my templates. My site is almost finished and I'm quite content with it, except for the following:

I'd like to show links to all folders in the folder that a user is watching. This can be done with the following code:

{* set children variable *}
{let children=fetch('content',list,hash(parent_node_id,$node.node_id))}
<h1>{$node.name}</h1>
{* loop children and show line view *}
{section name=Child loop=$children}
{node_view_gui view=line content_node=$Child:item}<br>
{/section}
{/let}

The problem here is that this code shows *all* childs of the selected node: So if there are articles and folders in the selected node, those are both shown. Can anyone tell me how I can filter that only links to *folders* are shown?

TIA,

Maarten

Assuming the class ID of the folder is 1 you can change the fetch function to:
fetch('content',list,hash(parent_node_id,$node.node_id,class_filter_type,include,class_filter_array,array(1)))

More information about the fetch function can be found here:

Great! Thanks for your help. It works and I'm getting the hang of it. EZWiki is great by the way.

Another question for which I can't find an answer: How can I show the *name* of the parent node? I can show the ID with $node.parent_node_id
but I can't figure out how to get the name...

in the same wiki page you'll find this fetch( 'content', 'node', hash(node_id, 23)). change 23 with parent_node_id and you'll get what you want.
