body:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Records can be hidden by setting the default `_hidden` system field to
|
||
|
|
`yes`. However records also get hidden automatically if any of their parents
|
||
|
|
are hidden. This property can quickly check if a record is considered hidden
|
||
|
|
by Lektor or not.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Hidden records can be queried but final pages will not be built. This is
|
||
|
|
useful for pages that should only exist for assisting other pages. For
|
||
|
|
instance hidden pages can be used to store configuration values.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This property is implemented on the level of source objects to make it
|
||
|
|
possible to use this API in all cases though the default implementation for
|
||
|
|
source objects is that they are always visible.

## Example
