Multiple publication types

support
1

Hi,

Is there any way a publication can have multiple types, e.g., a journal paper and a book? (I’m using Academic).
I’m asking since I’m using the publication types to classify my papers into work packages in a project and would need them to appear in more than one work package.

Thanks!
-Nina.

off the top of my head there are two ways to do something like that. Using sections and using a Taxonomies.

Using sections:

You need to run hugo new journal/entry-title and if you want them to display differently than other posts, you will need a theme file located at themes/your-theme/layouts/journal/single.html for example.

Using a taxonomy:

Let’s say your journal entries all belong to the category “journal”, your frontmatter will have something like this:

categories:
  - journal
  - somethingElse

I was looking through the docs what is the path to save a single.html file for a taxonomy term, but couldn’t find it. However, there was an earlier thread here about that exact issue.

You want to classify, reach for a taxonomy! :slight_smile: Or related content, that would work, too.

Those are alternative suggestions, no comment on multiple types.
