MD split

[digitalinferno]

When I need a special style for content in my page (for example in a one-page design) I use multiple md files (_part1.md _part2.md etc) so I can put a text paragraph exactly where I need it. It's a perfect workaround, but when I need multiple pages, with multiple paragraphs... I need a lot of md files.

So it's possible to split a md file with maybe a custom tag or a specific syntax?

Something like this:

---
Title: Test
Author: Me
Template: page
Split: yes
---
### 1
lorem ipsum

### 2
dolor sit amet

So {{ "_page"|content(1) }} return lorem ipsum and {{ "_page"|content(2) }} return dolor sit amet

Not out-of-the-box. As always, you could write a plugin to allow something like this. However, personally I'd recommend you to take advantage of it: Make splitting up pages into parts a conscious decision. Split pages into parts using hidden directories, i.e. the page sub/page.md could automatically include sub/_page/part1.md, sub/_page/part2.md, … You can now write your theme so that it automatically checks whether there are hidden sub/_page/*.md pages and include them accordingly, if one requested sub/page. This should be possible with pure Twig.

Thanks for the hint :+1: I have already a "portfolio section" with a for cycle to automatically include projects and display a thumbnail of the project:

{% for page in pages("portfolio")|sort_by("time")|reverse if not page.hidden %}          
    ...
    <a href="{{ page.url }}">
        <img src="assets/{{ page.id }}-thumbnail.webp" alt="{{ page.title }}" />
    </a>
    ...
{% endfor %}

I was close to the right approach... :smile:
