Is there a way to creat specific views that the blog engine will access when a visitor goes to a /tagged/keyword url?
Example.
I’d love to be able to make a tagged-photos.html view with specific markup and have the blog engine know to load this when someone goes to the /tagged/photos url.
If a tag specific view does not exist, the default tagged.html would be used.
I know I can make a view, filter it on a specific tag, and then bind that view to a specific short url /photos through the json file, but I’m wondering if there’s a more fluid/less clunky way.
Yes, but there will still be filtering involved. You'll need three views:
Then add the following to tagged.html:
{{#tagged}}
{{#is.photo}}
{{> tagged-photo}}
{{/is.photo}}
{{^is.photo}}
{{> tagged-default}}
{{/is.photo}}
{{/tagged}}
If you want to add other custom pages, you can stack them like so:
{{#tagged}}
{{#is.photo}}
{{> tagged-photo}}
{{/is.photo}}
{{#is.blog}}
{{> tagged-blog}}
{{/is.blog}}
{{^is.photo}}
{{^is.blog}}
{{> tagged-default}}
{{/is.blog}}
{{/is.photo}}
{{/tagged}}
Does that make sense? It's a little bit clumsy but should get the job done! I would eventually like to add parameterised embedding, e.g.
{{> {tag}.html}}
But we're not there yet... Please let me know if you have any questions about this or anything else. Am always happy to hear any feedback!
