Attachments

The Attachments shortcode displays a list of files attached to a page.

Usage

The shortcurt lists files found in a specific folder. Currently, it support two implementations for pages

  1. If your page is a markdown file, attachements must be placed in a folder named like your page and ending with .files.

    • content
      • _index.md
      • page.files
        • attachment.pdf
      • page.md
  2. If your page is a folder, attachements must be placed in a nested ‘files’ folder.

    • content
      • _index.md
      • page
        • index.md
        • files
          • attachment.pdf

Be aware that if you use a multilingual website, you will need to have as many folders as languages.

That’s all!
