Learn how to display the child posts or child categories on a blog page.
Directory structure
The directory structure for posts and categories is very simple, allow me to illustrate:
blog/
├─ category/
│ ├─ index.mdx
│ ├─ post.mdx
│ ├─ category/
│ ├─ index.mdx
│ ├─ post.mdx
├─ index.mdx
Visibility of child categories and posts
In any index.mdx
file you'll see the following autogenerated frontmatter:
---
title: Mdx
date: 2023-11-15
show_child_posts: true
description: "Add a description"
---
If you look at line 4 you'll see that child post visibility is enabled by default.
Change the value to false
to show child categories instead of the child posts.
