Can I have selected post and a blog page too?

In essence: you’ll want to create a post template that is identical to index.hbs, but you’ll want to swap out any index-specific Handlebars tags/helpers with post ones.

Then, create a post using that template, and map your menu item to that post.

Another, simpler alternative if you only have one author: set that menu item to the author page / post directory. You can edit the author hbs file for further customization.

That makes sense.  I was trying to puzzle that out in my mind, thinking that was the way, but I could not quite figure out how to start.

Thanks so much.

The blog post was most helpful, and I have the blog list working with one exception. It will not paginate. I can tell that the paginate hbs file is being included but suspect the context it is being used in is causing an issue. I am not really sure what is happening in the code though – so not sure what I should be looking at.

I am attaching my custom post-bloglist.hbs file so you can see what I have done. I have not altered any other files.

I am using the default theme – Simple

post-bloglist

So I was doing some reading and came across this snippet in the documentation:

Homepage, tag, and author pages support pagination. It is based on a few global variables and helpers. You can use pagination not only for creating pagination links, but also for a link with `rel=”prev”` or `rel=”next”` attributes.

I added some code to return the value of @pagination just to be sure.  It is false.  Is there any way to get Publii to paginate a file other than Homepage, tag and author?

Thanks
