Handle uglyURLs ambiguity in Permalink #3102
Description
Link to repo - this includes the following:
I find this working: create a /section/index.md in a section and it renders to /section/index.html in that same section in the public folder.
index.md or foo.md is content and metadata for the single pages,
I like to have an index-file in each content subdirectory as every webserver I know will deliver this when a user uses an address like http://domain.tld/section/.
All works fine so far.
I use the following structure:
.
├── config.toml
├── archetypes
├── content
| ├── _index.md
| ├── womo
| | ├── index.md
| | ├── fahrgestell.md
| | ├── aufbau.md
| | ├── einrichtung.md
| | └── {more pages}.md
| ├── hund
| ├── blog
| └── kontakt
├── static
├── data
├── layouts
└── themes
and this renders to
.
└── public
├── index.html
├── womo.html
├── womo
| ├── index.html
| ├── fahrgestell.html
| ├── aufbau.html
| ├── einrichtung.html
| └── {more pages}.html
├── hund.html
├── hund
├── blog.html
├── blog
├── kontakt.html
└── kontakt
which is ok so far - and as expected following @bep 's definition.
Now I use the following code to produce a sidenav within the womo section.
<ul>
{{ $act_section := .Section}}
{{ range where .Site.Pages "Section" $act_section }}
<li><a href="{{ .RelPermalink }}">{{- .LinkTitle -}}</a></li>
{{ end }}
</ul>
It ends up like this:
<li><a href="../womo.html">Einführung</a></li>
<li><a href="../womo/fahrgestell.html">Fahrgestell</a></li>
<li><a href="../womo/aufbau.html">Aufbau</a></li>
<li><a href="../womo/einrichtung.html">Einrichtung</a></li>
which obviously is wrong since the first line should be like
<li><a href="../womo/index.html">Einführung</a></li>
So at least for creating the menue index.md is NOT treated as content and metadata for a single page.
Hugo uses linktitle from the frontmatter of /section/index.md but the created link instead points to /section.html which gives a simple list but not the content of /section/index.md.
That's why I used to rename /section/index.md to something else like /section/intro.md in the snapshots above and everything worked fine
