Build an Authors / Contributors / Team / Supporters Page

[bmann]

Basically, loop through authors and display pictures and such in a list.

Can also list people who aren't authors and have some categories if we like.

I'm working on this one although I focused on Resources, Projects and People. I made a categories page, a category page, and then specifically linked to these three categories in the nav bar.

I'm still learning my way around this theme and brushing up on Jekyll and I'm a little confused about one section in the file _layout/category.html.

<div class="entries-{{ entries_layout }}">
  {% include posts-category.html taxonomy=page.taxonomy type=entries_layout %}
</div>

which in turn does:

{%- for post in site.categories[include.taxonomy] -%}
  {%- unless post.hidden -%}
    {% include archive-single.html %}
  {%- endunless -%}
{%- endfor -%}

I WANTED this to pull in all the posts with this category but that wasn't happening. I instead wrote a section although I'd much rather understand what they were trying to do and why it didn't seem to work.

My code (that DOES include all the posts of this category):

  {% for category in site.categories %}
    {% if category[0] == page.category %}
      {% for post in category[1] %}
        {% include archive-single.html type=entries_layout %}
      {% endfor %}
    {% endif %}
  {% endfor %}
