Possible to output no content for a section?

[budparr]

Here’s an issue on Github relating to this topic.

Disable single page output for designated sections

And, the last post on this thread presents a hacky solution, which I’m currently using but honestly don’t feel very comfortable with:

Would like to "ignoreFiles" but use the underlying content

If layouts/foo/single.html and layouts/section/foo.html are zero-length, no files will be published for section foo, but the content can still be retrieved through taxonomies, etc. This was briefly broken in 0.20-0.20.2, but was fixed in 0.20.3.
