is_hidden

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

{% set downloads = site.get('/downloads') %}
{% if downloads.is_hidden %}
  <p>Downloads are currently unavailable
{% endif %}
