How can I list the authors who have at least one article in the content/articles section of my website ? The difficulty I encounter is to avoid listing authors from only other sections, e.g. content/books. Currently, I have the following code: {{- with (.Site.GetPage "taxonomyTerm" "authors") …

ah yes, of course, the collection is an map object, not a slice. . . there’s a few ways of solving this - mostly simply just with a boolean. but if you want to keep an iterator for some reason you can do this: {{ $authors := .Site.Taxonomies.authors }} {{ $authorsInSection := where $authors "Secti…

@yaythomas both code snippets are true, because $i is zero in the first iteration. The problem is, that it’s not counting based on the if-loop but based on the range-item. @gillesbonnet have a look at Scratch. You can set a variable that counts the number of authors with one or more posts (inside o…

I just realized that this will add a comma after the last author. Have a look at this comment to see how to check if we are at the last item: [image] Range length or last element? support Tnx, this helped me a lot. I integrated this in the nav of my testsite and it works…

[image] davidsneighbour: have a look at Scratch. Thank you @davidsneighbour . Indeed, it should work with Scratch. I though I was missing something simpler, more direct, like using where. Unfortunately I was not successful with this latter option.

no, my bad, I didn’t pay enough attention to what you were actually asking! you could use a range with a where, like you mentioned? What was your trouble with it? it would look something like this: {{ $authorsInSection := where $authors "Section" "articles" }} {{ range $i, $author := $aut…

Thanks @yaythomas for coming back to me. Actually I tried this before but then $authorsInSection is empty. I can see that because if I write {{ $authorsInSection }} it prints on my website Pages(0).

Thanks again @yaythomas and @davidsneighbour for your suggestions. At the end I found an alternative way, which I described in a Tip and trick post .

This is the solution of a question I asked on that forum. Context: You have two sections content/articles and content/books. You also set up a taxonomy for the authors with additional info for each author under content/authors/. Now you want to list all authors who posted one or multiple articles …

Hi @gillesbonnet I’ve merged your separate post into here. It makes more sense to keep the question and the answer together in the same topic.
