Ah, I didn’t know content sections are different. That explains why there’s nothing for the gallery-shortcode to iterate over. I’m learning a lot here - thx!
Interesting, thanks! I didn’t get it to work yet, but I’ll keep trying. I’d also need to hide that page the resources are pulled from to prevent the gallery from showing up twice.
I was thinking (since a given hugo site has just a single frontpage) to use a Site Variable to specify where to find the images in this particular case. For example, specify gallery_folder = 'gallery' in the params section of the config.toml, and use that in the layouts/index.html partial/override but I haven’t figured out how/if it’s possible to access the *jpg files. They aren’t part of any page resource, so maybe this approach is not viable.
Thanks everyone!
Here’s an initial attempt to display the gallery on the front page (not in main yet but in a branch named gallery-on-frontpage).
@brunoamaral quick question, when placing the images in a different directory, for example content/images (instead of content/gallery), I’ve noticed that I also need to change the front matter from:
name: gallery-:counter
to
name: images-:counter
But I can’t seem to find where name is being used.
Here’ an example.
It’s for the figcaption but I forgot to place it there, you’ll notice that tag is empty.
