Include
The include
shortcode includes other files from your project inside of the current page.
Usage
While the examples are using shortcodes with named parameter you are free to use positional aswell or also call this shortcode from your own partials.
{{% include file="shortcodes/INCLUDE_ME.md" %}}
{{% include "shortcodes/INCLUDE_ME.md" %}}
{{ partial "shortcodes/include .html" (dict
"context" .
"file" "shortcodes/INCLUDE_ME.md"
)}}
The included files can even contain Markdown and will be taken into account when generating the table of contents.
Parameter
Name | Position | Default | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
file | 1 | <empty> | The path to the file to be included. Path resolution adheres to Hugo’s build-in readFile function |
showfirstheading | 2 | true |
When false and the included file contains headings, the first heading will be hidden. This comes in handy, eg. if you include otherwise standalone Markdown files. |
Examples
Arbitray Content
{{% include "shortcodes/INCLUDE_ME.md" %}}

...and even source code
the possiblities are endless (almost - including other shortcodes may or may not work) (almost - including other shortcodes may or may not work)
