how to list subpages in sidebar without widget - wordpress

I am trying to create a list of subpages of a parent page, which will appear in the sidebar of my wordpress site. This sidebar will appear on every page.

So for example, I have a page with an ID of 54. This page has 7 subpages. I would like to display these 7 pages in the sidebar (just the titles), as well as any more subpages that get added.

There is a currently a widget called 'Pages' that will do this, but I would like to do this via code directly in the sidebar.php rather than using a widget as there are a few constraints with using the widget.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

To write custom code for such purpose will require you to execute php inside the widget. Try using this Php Code Execute Plugin

Try this link: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_list_pages Specifically, look the 'depth' and 'child_of' parameters for the function.

Should be:

<?php wp_list_pages( array( 'depth' => 1, 'child_of' => YOUR_PAGE_ID_HERE ); ?>

furthermore, you can get the page id dynamically too of course.
