I’m not finished but I did some digital spring cleaning and updated my website theme a bit. I wanted to explore making it more of a digital garden and less chronological. Part of that was implementing backlinks. I wrote up the steps here Backlinks on a Micro.blog hosted website.

@heyloura Very cool, thanks for sharing this.

@heyloura Thanks for the steps for adding Backlinks. I added them to my site and they worked a treat. I can recommend a small change, as I was seeing links to newsletter pages were getting picked up in the backlinks. I made a slight change to filter out newsletter pages out. by adding a new if block around the append:

if not (strings.HasPrefix .RelPermalink "/newsletters")

See full example:

{{ $relpermalink := .RelPermalink }}
{{ $pages := slice }}
{{- range .Site.Pages -}}
    {{- if strings.Contains .Content $relpermalink -}}
        {{- if not (strings.HasPrefix .RelPermalink "/newsletters") -}}
            {{ $pages = $pages | append . }}
        {{- end -}}
    {{- end -}}
{{- end -}}

Thanks again for the instructions.

@lmika Good catch! I don’t use newsletters so I didn’t see that. Thank you!

@ZeroOne Oh I guess this kind of customization would be available in the higher price tiers of Micro.blog. I’m currently in the $1 tier… 😇

@ZeroOne Sorry I missed your reply on my post. Yes, I think you need to be on a higher tier plan. If I have time this weekend I’ll see if I can throw together a plugin or shortcode you could use 😊
