Many content types on one page

[pangorgo]

Is it possible to list two or more content types on one page? Lets say I have events and news content types and I want both of them listed on one page.

Hi @pangorgo, I didn't try this but you can specify content_type to * but then you will need to do more filtering

---
title: metalsmith-contentful file
contentful:
  content_type: *
  layout: post.html
layout: posts.html
---

One better suggestion, you can have on content_type called page for example and inside of it, you have a reference field that points to either event content_type or news content_type. so this way you can specify one content_type: page and you can display content of both events and news

---
title: metalsmith-contentful file
contentful:
  content_type: page
  layout: post.html
layout: posts.html
---

and inside you template you check if the reference name for example is 'event' you display something and if the name is news you display something else

{{#if fields.tage.name === 'events'}}
// display events data
{{/if}}

👍 for a page model.

What you could do also (depending on your use case) you could put several calls in the common section.
