Display information from nested files

support
1

Hi!

I am new to Hugo so forgive me if this has already been asked.

I have the following structure:

content

  • about
    – our-team
    — _index.md
    — name1.md
    — name2.md
    — name3.md
    – sponsors
    — _index.md

On my homepage I have created a partial and would like to display each team member. However I can only seem to display the information from “about” and “sponsors” using the following:

{{ $sections := (.Site.GetPage "section" "about").Sections }}
{{ range $sections }}

    <p>Title: {{ .Title }}</p>

{{ end }}

I was hoping this would work but it breaks:

{{ $sections := (.Site.GetPage "section" "about/our-team").Sections }}
{{ range $sections }}

    <p>Title: {{ .Title }}</p>

{{ end }}

Any help would be appreciated. :pray:

To get pages from all Sections and Nested Sections I think that the above should be {{ $sections := (.Site.GetPage "section" .Section).Sections

Thanks for the help but sadly this didn’t do the trick. :frowning:

There must be a way to access markdown files in a subfolder. :thinking:

If I try the following:

{{ range $subsection := (.Site.GetPage "section" "about" "our-team") }}
   Section Page: {{ .Title }}<br>
{{ end }}

it returns the following error:

ERROR 2018/07/23 11:52:42 Error while rendering “home” in “”: template: index.html:42:11: executing “index.html” at <partial "meet-the-te…>: error calling partial: template: partials/meet-the-team.html:13:61: executing “partials/meet-the-team.html” at <“our-team”>: range can’t iterate over {0xc04419cd00 0xc042fb3ec0 section Pages(1) [] [] [0xc0440c4f00] map[date:{0 63624070800 0xc043428420} lastmod:{0 63624070800 0xc0434283c0} publishdate:{0 63624070800 0xc043428420} description:A list of team members title:Our team draft:false iscjklanguage:false]

Any thoughts as to what I have done wrong?

Please include a link to your Hugo project’s source code to investigate further.

Or if you cannot share include some dummy content.

Also regarding the error you get, if you are on the latest Hugo 0.45 that was released yesterday, please have a look at the release notes and associated documentation.

.GetPage has been improved.

I’ll try and include some dummy content.

I have updated the latest release and can use the following to display a title:

{{ with .Site.GetPage "/about/our-team" }}{{ .Title }}{{ end }}

Can this then be used with range to find all .md files with this folder?

7

Something like:

{{ range $subsection := (.Site.GetPage "/about/our-team") }}
    Section Page: {{ .Title }}<br>
{{ end }}

I am having problems myself with the latest release so I’m afraid that I cannot help further.

Maybe someone else will.

ok thank you for your help so far. :+1:

10

Would something like the following work? (I’m still on 0.44 though so not sure how the new GetPage does things yet)

{{ $subsection := .Site.GetPage "section" "about" "our-team" }}
  {{ range $subsection.Pages }}
    {{ .Title }}<br>
  {{ end }}
{{ end }}
11

The above will not work with Hugo 0.45

12

Absolutely smashed it! :point_up_2: :clap:

13

Are you on Hugo 0.45?

14

I rolled it back to 0.44

15

Ok. Good to know. Thanks!

16

On 0.45, above needs to be simply refactored to:

.Site.GetPage "section" "/about/our-team".

Update .Site.GetPage "/about/our-team" would be a more correct way (haven’t tested).

That’s rarely a good solution :slight_smile: Always try to make your stuff work for future.

That is a fair point. I have updated to 0.45 and modified the code :sunglasses:
