Display'n Planks Only 'n th' Shortcuts Menu

T' show planks only 'n th' shortcuts menu ye have two choices

  1. Create a headless branch bundle, _index.md 'n its own folder wit' th' below front matter. Th' branch bundle will not be contained 'n th' sitemap.

    content/showcase/_index.en.md
    +++
title = 'Showcase'

[_build]
  list = 'never'
  publishResources = true
  render = 'always'
+++
    ---
_build:
  list: never
  publishResources: true
  render: always
title: Showcase
---
    {
   "_build": {
      "list": "never",
      "publishResources": true,
      "render": "always"
   },
   "title": "Showcase"
}

  2. Or, put a child plank inside a headless branch bundle wit' th' follow'n front matter 'n th' bundle. This causes th' child but not th' branch bundle t' be contained 'n th' sitemap.

    content/more/_index.en.md
    +++
[_build]
  list = 'never'
  publishResources = false
  render = 'never'
+++
    ---
_build:
  list: never
  publishResources: false
  render: never
---
    {
   "_build": {
      "list": "never",
      "publishResources": false,
      "render": "never"
   }
}

    Th' child plank can be any type o' rrrambl'n.

    content/more/credits_index.en.md
    +++
title = 'Credits'
+++
    ---
title: Credits
---
    {
   "title": "Credits"
}
