I am trying to list all article titles and their intros within a given folder but I can not figure out how to access their intros. This should be simple but I'm stumped. Here is the code I am attempting to use:
{section show=$with_children}
{section name=Child loop=fetch(content, list, hash(
parent_node_id, $node.node_id,
limit, $page_limit,
offset, $view_parameters.offset,
sort_by, $node.sort_array,
class_filter_type, exclude,
class_filter_array, array( 1, 10 ) ) )}
<p class="article_title">{$Child:item.name|wash}</p>
<p class="article_intro">{$Child:item.intro}</p>
<a class="read_more" href={$Child:item.url_alias|ezurl}>Read More...</a>
{/section}
{/section}

Obviously $Child:item.intro does not work. Can I use my $Child object to get at the intro or am I going about this all wrong? Thanks in advance.

Try {$Child:item.data_map.intro.content.output.output_text}
