How Do I Do This In Wordpress

Warriors,

On my website managed by wordpress I have a lot of Parent pages that have more than 5 sub pages each.

I want to improve internal linking within my website. I want it to be in such a way that when any Parent page is open (or a sub page) all the other subpages under that parent page should show on the sidebar.

Let me elaborate with an example. Lets say I have three parent pages.

1) Contractors by state
2) Builders by state
3) Marketers by state

Under each parent page is a sub page such as Alabama, Washington.. and so on.

I want it to be in such a way that when someone visits the parent page (Contractors by state) the sidebar should show all the sub pages listed within it (such as Alabama, Washington)
It should continue showing the same thing for all sub pages under that particular parent page.

I know I have a tendency to over complicate things when I explain.. I'm pretty sure i have done that above.. I do however hope someone understood what I was trying to ask.

    Will this do the trick?

    WordPress › LJ Subpages Widget WordPress Plugins

    Or how about this?

    WordPress › Andy's List Subpages Plugin WordPress Plugins

    There's quite a few subpage listing plugins...

    There should be some themes that are able to do this... although I can't recall any.

    However, if you are comfortable messing a bit with the code in the template files - get my 7 WP tutorials (see below). One of them addresses exactly this issue.

      I checked em out.. the first one comes close to what i want.. but it displays the same subpages for all pages on my website. Not for the particular parent page like i want.

        Then use something that limits when the widget shows on the sidebar, like the widget logic plugin. WordPress › Widget Logic WordPress Plugins

        Other than that I'm not sure.
