Hi all
I’m totally new with Grav, just tried it during hours without finding what I’m looking for, therefore this post.
Since years, I’m using Markdown for my notes. I’ve a /notes
folder on my disk and their sub-folders (many levels). One subfolder for work (/notes/work
) for instance, one other for home (/notes/home
), … and in each folder, subfolders. Nothing special here I think.
In my folders, I’ve one or more notes; called readme.md
but also garden.md
, car.md
, … and sometimes I don’t have a .md at all. In the /home/family
folder f.i. I can have only subfolders but no note in that folder.
My wish / dream: can I copy all my /notes
folder under /user/pages/notes
and just add a notes
entry in the Administration of Grav and mention that this entry is a blog. Nothing more…
The idea is that Grav will process any .md
files there and will make possible to see the list of files, navigate between subfolders, click on a note and see it.
Actually, I’ve tried during hours and not really find how to do this…
It seems that if I’ve a file called car.md
I need a template car.html.twig
otherwise I got an error. Is there any “undefined” template i.e. doesn’t care about the name of the note, using a default template.
Also, if I’ve a folder without .md
files, I’ve an error too when trying to see it through the blog page of Grav. In my case, I don’t want an error, just the list of files below; in all subfolders.
Another thing: Grav is adding files (like blog.en.md
) in my structure or, even, modify my notes by adding a yaml block. If possible I wish to avoid this: Grav will display my notes and don’t change anything in my /notes
folder. Leave my folders and notes as is. If custom files should be created, is it possible to do it in a temporary or config
folder f.i. (idea is not to change my files neither my folders).
Many thanks by advance
