Wrong order of pages

support
1

Hey Hugo-Users,

I have a small problem with the order of pages: Despite using the weights it orders in the wrong way…
My github repo is here: GitHub - wehrend/wehrend.github.io and my page is here: https://wehrend.github.io/

The page 11_clocks_registers is shown instead of the page 06_Memory (as you can see I order by numbers)… Below the different front matters of the different pages:

title: 05_ALU

date: 2022-03-11
category: “digital_logic_1”
link:
description:
type: text
bookHidden: true
menu:
docs:
parent: “digital_logic_1”
weight: 50

title: 06_Memory
date: 2022-03-20
category: “digital_logic_1”
link:
description:
type: text
bookHidden: true
menu:
docs:
parent: “digital_logic_1”
weight: 60

title: 11_Clocks_flipflops_and_registers

date: 2022-03-12
category: “digital_logic_2”
link:
description:
type: text
bookHidden: true
menu:
docs:
parent: “digital_logic_2”
weight: 120

If you have any idea I would be happy to know, I tried a bit with different values for the front matter…

mmh, it will be good:

  • to tell us about the source /content path of
  • the pages in mention
  • the page where you have something displayed in wrong order
  • and to further ease up the path of the layout template responsible for generating that

Your link shows up like that:

and three code fences will improve readability of your posted code

additional hint: when I clone I get:

warning: the following paths have collided (e.g. case-sensitive paths
on a case-insensitive filesystem) and only one from the same
colliding group is in the working tree:

‘content/de/posts/synth/lfo_sem_patch2-3.JPG’
‘content/de/posts/synth/lfo_sem_patch2-3.jpg’

content/en/pages/digital_logic/05_ALU.md
content/en/pages/digital_logic/06_Memory.md
content/en/pages/digital_logic_2/11_Clocks_flipflops_and_registers.md

On the page
https://wehrend.github.io/en/pages/digital_logic/05_ALU/
the Prev/Next navigation shows:

  • Next: 11_Clocks_flipflops_and_registers

  • but I would expect Next: 06_Memory
    because both 05 and 06 share the same menu.docs.parent = "digital_logic" and their weights are 50 and 60.

I think you have set a weight for the menu entries not for the pages

---
title: 11_Clocks_flipflops_and_registers (de)
bookHidden: true
menu:
  docs:
    parent: "digital_logic_2"
    weight: 10                                         <-- not the page weigth
---

Nevertheless:

the logic for prev next is in themes\hugo-book\layouts\_partials\docs\prev-next.html (line 7)

  {{ $pages := partialCached "docs/prev-next-cache" .Pages }}
  {{/* HIER ändern: */}}
  {{ $prev := $pages.Prev $ }}
  {{ $next := $pages.Next $ }}
  1. The result is cached without Context (and stored in a .Scratch) - so I guess the first invocations wins.
  2. There’s no sort, ByWeight, … so whatever order there is it depends on the partial creating the cache.
  3. If I change line 7 to {{ $pages := (partialCached "docs/prev-next-cache" .Pages).ByTitle }}
    the order is as expected :wink: 04 05 06 …
  4. maybe setting a page weight and use .ByWeight…

I believe that would be best addressed to the theme author - I won’t dig in further

This worked, but I needed to take it reversed for the right order…

  1. If I change line 7 to {{ $pages := (partialCached "docs/prev-next-cache" .Pages).ByTitle }}
    the order is as expected :wink: 04 05 06 …
    So the result is below…
  2. {{ $pages := (partialCached “docs/prev-next-cache” .Pages).ByTitle.Reverse }}
