I’m curious to see what happens if you use cascade
this is suppose to add the same front matter values to all descendents of a page. So if you add _index.md
at the root of content/
with
cascade:
title: Dummy Title
Then all descendents will share that title, and Hugo might build the pages as it picks some Front Matter form the cascade object. I never tried it and it might not suit your need, but I’m curious,
