Topic: ig publisher option to ignore files
Eric Haas (Nov 15 2017 at 17:56):
- all html file in the in pages directory are processed including looking for _included files. I would like a way to exclude certain files.
-checking Jekyll - I tried using _config.yml file in my root directory but that doesn't work *(didn't think it would).
Is there a way to do this and if not is it a reasonable request to make an exclude list in configuration file "ig.json" to update the _config.yml or whatever the tool uses to for creating output.

doesn't jekyll ignore files that don't start with the jekyll header?

well my use case is for the files that link to the top menu (e.g. operations.html) . I split the pages into a set of 'source' files and 'static' files that are unlikely to change from IG to IG. So there are more menu items than I need for a particular IG. I can always delete or rename the files but I'm trying to not touch them. So was hoping to find a way to exclude them.

exclude them from what?

this describes my situation: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22750109/make-jekyll-ignore-some-html-files
I don't want the html files to processed by Jekyll since the _include files could be missing which causes the publish to fail.
