Enhancement: Link a page folder to a content type

In some cases, a content type will only be used for a specific page folder. For example: the blog content type will be used for posts page folders.

It would be helpful to link the page folder to the content type, that way, while creating new content, Front Matter will not require to ask where the content needs to be created.

@michaeltlombardi, thanks for the feedback. You might be right about the type mapping, but this is how the content types have worked for a while in FM. If we want to change this, it would be best to do it in another issue/implementation as it would not be related to this enhancement.

Good news, you are now able to give it a try!

On the folder defined in the frontMatter.content.pageFolders setting, you can now set the content type(s) you want to use.

"frontMatter.content.pageFolders": [
  {
    "title": "blog",
    "path": "[[workspace]]/blog",
    "filePrefix": "yyyy-MM-dd",
    "contentTypes": ["blog"]
  },
  {
    "title": "docs",
    "path": "[[workspace]]/docs",
    "filePrefix": "",
    "contentTypes": ["doc", "page"]
  }
]
