Attachments

The attachments shortcode displays a list of files attached to a page with adjustable color, title and icon.

Usage

While the examples are using shortcodes with named parameter you are free to also call this shortcode from your own partials.

{{% attachments sort="asc" /%}}
{{ partial "shortcodes/attachments.html" (dict
  "context" .
  "sort" "asc"
)}}

The shortcurt lists files found in a specific folder.

Currently, it supports 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.
