About

This example “about” page, and other pages associated with the “About” section, illustrate two features provided by Hugo-Smorg:

• layout: subsection
• partial: breadcrumbs (included in subsection layout by default)

If you find a need for a layout like:

/about/
/about/contact/
/about/contact-my-dog/
/about/legal/

Then _default/subsection.html layout and partials/section-crumbs.html may be just what you need. To use simply add the following variable to your front-matter in all content found within the “about” section, including its _index.html:

---
layout: subsection
---

By default the link title is the Page’s title (.Name); long titles won’t work well; you can supply slug in font-matter to override this for breadcrumbs:

---
slug: board
---

Note: Use of slug will also affect your Page’s URL. Oftentimes this may be in line with what you want for a breadcrumb-appropriate menu. You can optionally maintain an alias to the former or any prior URI using Hugo’s alias feature in page frontmatter:

aliases: [/posts/my-old-url/]
