I’m trying to create two pages. One that lists all the posts that have the parameter `intro` set to `true` and the other one lists all the pages that doesn’t have the parameter `intro` set to `true`.

I’m currently thinking of adding `series` or `posts` parameter to the `_index.md`, but I was wondering if there was a better way.

If not, how would I do this?

PS: Sorry if my terminology isn’t correct because I’m just starting to get into hugo.

Try it:

```bash

cd hugo-forum-topic-40473

Unfortunately, this doesn’t work. Here’s my current directory structure:

```auto
.
├── config.toml
├── content
│ ├── posts
│ │ ├── intro-to-note-taking-with-latex.md
│ │ ├── note-taking-with-latex-part-1.md
│ │ ├── note-taking-with-latex-part-2.md
│ │ ├── note-taking-with-latex-part-3.md
│ │ ├── note-taking-with-latex-part-4.md
│ │ ├── note-taking-with-latex-part-5.md
│ │ └── note-taking-with-latex-part-6.md
│ └── views
│ ├── posts
│ │ └── _index.md
│ └── series
│ └── _index.md
├── layouts
│ └── views
│ ├── posts.html
│ └── series.html
├── README.md
└── themes
    └── LoveIt

```

I’m using the [LoveIt](https://github.com/dillonzq/LoveIt) theme. You can find my source code [here](https://github.com/SingularisArt/Website) in case you need more information.

In addition, how can I make the `series` page display something like this:

```auto
Series Name 1:
  - Post Intro
  - Post 1
  - Post 2
  - Post 3

Series Name 2:
  - Post Intro
  - Post 1
  - Post 2
  - Post 3

Series Name 3:
  - Post Intro
  - Post 1
  - Post 2
  - Post 3

```

What doesn’t work? The example I provided works exactly as you described.

NVM. I found my problem. I was putting the `series` and `posts` into `content` instead of `content/views/`. Thanks.
