Count folders in another section via shortcode

support

Hi there, I want to count all folders (non recursive - only in “root”) in section-a from a page in section-b via shortcode:

content/
  └─ -section-a/
         ├── folder-a/
         │      └─ index.md
         ├── folder-b/
         │      └─ index.md
         └── _index.md

This Shortcode is called from a page in section-2:

{{< count-folders section="section-a" >}}

This should get me a 2

How do I get it right? :slight_smile:

Those folders are page bundles.

layouts/shortcodes/count.html 
{{ $p := .Page }}
{{ with .Get 0 }}
  {{ with $p.GetPage . }}
    {{ $p = . }}
  {{ end }}
{{ end }}
{{ (where $p.Pages "BundleType" "ne" "").Len }}

To get a count of the current page’s children (leaf and branch bundles only):

{{< count >}}

To get a count of another page’s children (leaf and branch bundles only):

{{< count "/logical/path/to/page" >}}

I revised the above to only count bundles.

Thanks, i ll try this. I found a solution that also seem to work:

{{- $section := .Get "section" | default "galleries"  -}}
{{ $pages := (where .Site.RegularPages "Section" "==" $section) }}
{{ $pages.Len }}

called like so:

{{< count-folders >}} 
{{< count-folders section="section-a">}}
