Advanced Hugo Sections

This is the second article, demonstrating how multiple articles appear in the same section.

Advanced Section Features

Hugo sections provide powerful features for content organization:

Custom Section Templates

You can create custom templates for each section by placing them in layouts/SECTION/:

  • layouts/articles/list.html - for /articles/ page
  • layouts/articles/single.html - for individual articles

Section Variables

In templates, you can access section-specific data:

{{ .Section }}        // "articles"
{{ .Type }}           // content type
{{ .Pages }}          // all pages in section
{{ .RegularPages }}   // only regular pages

Taxonomies per Section

Each section can have its own taxonomies (tags, categories) with independent organization.
