I have a content folder with a post folder in it where I would like to organize my posts into page bundles.
I create a directory like content/post/super-cool-post and maybe an images directory as well content/post/super-cool-post/images then I run hugo new post/supercool-post/postname.md and change the post to not be draft.
I run hugo and I check the site and I don’t see the post. I tried adding a index.md file to the content/post/super-cool-post folder but I’m not sure what the content of the index.md file should be… no matter what I try it still doesn’t make the post show up.
If I create a post like hugo new post/postname.md it works fine.
The way it works is: you have a specific issue and you share your repo so we can see your entire configuration and then we understand what you are trying to do (or ask questions for clarification).
For anyone else that needs clarification, my issue was I was not using index.md as my page for the page bundle but rather trying to configure additional .md files as my page.
This worked with a _index.md file but not index.md.
So the answer is to use index.md as your page bundle page.
