In another project (Symantec Connect Articles) I've got a Table of Contents (toc) for many sets of Articles. This can sometimes be a lot of information and is duplicated in each article, at the top and bottom. This isn't ideal if I need to update anything.
Seeing an Include option in Devlead.Statiq - Part 1 - Tabs I wondered if there was similar functionality already built in.
When I originally tried it, looking at other Shortcodes, it didn't work. It was showing it as plain text and not converting to markdown.
<?# Include "./../includes/posts/toc.md" /?>
This can't be the only option? To the docs. Processing Phases explained what was going on.
- Pre-rendering:
<?! ShortcodeName /?> - Intermediate:
<?^ ShortcodeName /?> - Post-rendering:
<?# ShortcodeName /?>
I'd been using Post-rendering <?# since this is what was used on a code example. Swapping it to Intermediate worked a treat.
Looking for other examples I also found the Markdown Shortcode.
<?# Markdown ?>
<?!^ "./../includes/posts/toc.md" /?>
<?#/ Markdown ?>
I prefer this as the intention is very clear.
Now all I need to do is update all my articles to use this...
