+    <updated>2026-02-19T00:00:00Z</updated>
+    <id>https://leecat.art/eleventy-lessons/</id>
+    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;recently I wrote &lt;em&gt;several&lt;/em&gt; sites using &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.11ty.dev/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;external&quot;&gt;Eleventy&lt;/a&gt; (4? 5?). Including, over the past few days, rewriting this one! That&#39;s right, if you&#39;re reading this, we&#39;re now running on 11ty and hosted by &lt;a href=&quot;https://heckin.technology/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;external&quot;&gt;heckin.technology&lt;/a&gt;. See ya, GitHub. Won&#39;t miss ya.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I&#39;ve compiled some of the things I&#39;ve learned in a standalone site: &lt;a href=&quot;https://inherentlee.codeberg.page/lessons/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;external&quot;&gt;11ty Lessons&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;however, since I don&#39;t know how much I&#39;ll focus on that specific site - it is mostly a sample - I am re-publishing the most useful information here. I&#39;ll skip the intro to Markdown content. I&#39;m also going to update them where I&#39;ve learned more or to better match what&#39;s represented on this site.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;this will comprise of 4 parts: &lt;a href=&quot;https://leecat.art/eleventy-lessons/#related-posts&quot;&gt;related posts&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;https://leecat.art/eleventy-lessons/#featured-images&quot;&gt;featured images&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;https://leecat.art/eleventy-lessons/#pagination&quot;&gt;pagination&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href=&quot;https://leecat.art/eleventy-lessons/#tag-image-preview&quot;&gt;tag image preview&lt;/a&gt;. Feel free to jump ahead, as none depend on the others.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;hr&gt;
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;related-posts&quot;&gt;related posts&lt;/h2&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;by default, the &lt;a href=&quot;https://leecat.art/eleventy-lessons/github.com/11ty/eleventy-base-blog&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;external&quot;&gt;Eleventy base blog&lt;/a&gt; comes with pagination between posts. Post 2 can take you to posts 1 and 3, etc.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;while that is useful for &lt;em&gt;this&lt;/em&gt; site, when building another site I wanted to see a couple randomly-suggested posts that shared 1 or more tags.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I started by referring to &lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/11ty/eleventy/discussions/2534&quot; target=&quot;_blank rel=external&amp;quot;&quot;&gt;this GitHub issue about related posts&lt;/a&gt;. I had to fix a few errors that arose from the suggested code.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I also wanted to make three changes:&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;ol&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;I didn&#39;t want to just see posts that shared &lt;em&gt;all&lt;/em&gt; tags, but rather posts that shared &lt;em&gt;any&lt;/em&gt; tag&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;I wanted to randomly add a few posts instead of just getting whatever was first (with a shared tag) in the post order&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;I wanted to exclude the posts that I could reach with between-post pagination&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;/ol&gt;
+&lt;h3 id=&quot;filters-js&quot;&gt;filters.js&lt;/h3&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;after adjusting for those needs, I had the following in &lt;code&gt;filters.js&lt;/code&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;pre class=&quot;language-js&quot;&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-js&quot;&gt;eleventyConfig&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token function&quot;&gt;addFilter&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token string&quot;&gt;&quot;excludeFromCollection&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token keyword&quot;&gt;function&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token parameter&quot;&gt;collection&lt;span class=&quot;token operator&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; urls&lt;span class=&quot;token operator&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token keyword&quot;&gt;this&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;ctx&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;page&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;url&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;)&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt;

+&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;}&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
+&lt;h3 id=&quot;post-njk&quot;&gt;post.njk&lt;/h3&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I used this in my post layout. &lt;code&gt;filterTagList&lt;/code&gt; comes with the base blog by default, and removes the tags &amp;quot;posts&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;all.&amp;quot; &lt;code&gt;head&lt;/code&gt; also comes with the base blog. &lt;code&gt;postlist.njk&lt;/code&gt; is my modified-from-the-base-blog post layout.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;pre class=&quot;language-html&quot;&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-html&quot;&gt;{% set relevantTags = tags | filterTagList %}
+

+  {% include &quot;postlist.njk&quot; %}
+&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;/&lt;/span&gt;section&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
+{% endif %}&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;and that sorts related posts.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;hr&gt;
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;featured-images&quot;&gt;featured images&lt;/h2&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;images in 11ty use the &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.11ty.dev/docs/plugins/image/#eleventy-transform&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;external&quot;&gt;Image Transform Plugin&lt;/a&gt;. I found it hard to find anything to reference while building this - a lot of sites in the template gallery are either text-heavy or not using the plugin - so I&#39;m reproducing what I&#39;ve got here for reference.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h3 id=&quot;file-structure&quot;&gt;file structure&lt;/h3&gt;
+&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;content/
+|--img/
+|  |--sample-0.jpg
+|  |--sample-1.jpg
+|  `--etc
+|--posts/
+|  |--lesson-0-front-matter-and-urls.md
+|  |--lesson-1-headings-paragraphs-and-horizontal-lines.md
+|  `--etc
+`--etc
+&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
+&lt;h3 id=&quot;front-matter&quot;&gt;front matter&lt;/h3&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;for any given post, my front matter references the image in this manner:&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;---
+image:
+  src: sample-0.jpg
+  alt: moss on a fencepost
+---
+&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
+&lt;h3 id=&quot;image-html-transform&quot;&gt;image HTML transform&lt;/h3&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;As mentioned, there&#39;s a plugin for images. If you started with the base blog, in &lt;code&gt;eleventy.config.js&lt;/code&gt;, you&#39;ll probably find a chunk of code similar to this already in place:&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;pre class=&quot;language-js&quot;&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-js&quot;&gt;eleventyConfig&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token function&quot;&gt;addPlugin&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;eleventyImageTransformPlugin&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt;
+  &lt;span class=&quot;token literal-property property&quot;&gt;formats&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token operator&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token string&quot;&gt;&quot;auto&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;
+
+  &lt;span class=&quot;token literal-property property&quot;&gt;widths&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token operator&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token number&quot;&gt;640&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;
+  &lt;span class=&quot;token literal-property property&quot;&gt;failOnError&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token operator&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token boolean&quot;&gt;true&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;
+  &lt;span class=&quot;token literal-property property&quot;&gt;htmlOptions&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token operator&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt;
+    &lt;span class=&quot;token literal-property property&quot;&gt;imgAttributes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token operator&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt;
+      &lt;span class=&quot;token comment&quot;&gt;// e.g. &amp;lt;img loading decoding&gt; assigned on the HTML tag will override these values.&lt;/span&gt;
+      &lt;span class=&quot;token literal-property property&quot;&gt;loading&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token operator&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token string&quot;&gt;&quot;lazy&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;
+      &lt;span class=&quot;token literal-property property&quot;&gt;decoding&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token operator&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token string&quot;&gt;&quot;async&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;
+    &lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;}&lt;/span&gt;
+  &lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;}&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;
+
+  &lt;span class=&quot;token literal-property property&quot;&gt;sharpOptions&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token operator&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt;
+    &lt;span class=&quot;token literal-property property&quot;&gt;animated&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token operator&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token boolean&quot;&gt;true&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;
+  &lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;}&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;
+&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;}&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;setting &lt;code&gt;formats&lt;/code&gt; to &amp;quot;auto&amp;quot; helps - use whatever type of image you want, get that type out. The default settings that came with the Eleventy base blog didn&#39;t set a &lt;code&gt;width&lt;/code&gt;, which I wanted (by default, images off my camera - like the hellebore featured image for this post - are almost 5k pixels wide). I also found it helpful to set &lt;code&gt;failOnError&lt;/code&gt; to true for a little more feedback.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;blockquote&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;NOTE: It sure seems like Eleventy will fail your image processing if there&#39;s no alt text. While admirable, it would be nice if I could find any documentation for this!&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;/blockquote&gt;
+&lt;h3 id=&quot;passthrough-copy&quot;&gt;passthrough copy&lt;/h3&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;as I worked through this, I thought I needed a passthrough copy for a while. You don&#39;t - just let the plugin do its thing.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h3 id=&quot;templating&quot;&gt;templating&lt;/h3&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I needed images to show up in 3 places:&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;ul&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;In the lists of posts on the home page, I wanted each post to show its featured image&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;In the &amp;quot;related posts&amp;quot; section on each individual post, I wanted each related post to show its featured image&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;And of course, I wanted the post to show its own featured image&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;/ul&gt;
+&lt;h3 id=&quot;home-page-and-related-posts&quot;&gt;home page and related posts&lt;/h3&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;both of these sections use the same template, which in my setup is called &lt;code&gt;postlist.njk&lt;/code&gt;. Within the relevant links, I added the following:&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;pre class=&quot;language-html&quot;&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-html&quot;&gt;{% if post.data.image.src %}
+  &lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;&lt;/span&gt;img&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;src&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;/img/{{ post.data.image.src }}&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;alt&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;{{ post.data.image.alt }}&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
+{% else %}
+  &lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;&lt;/span&gt;div&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;class&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;missing-image&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;/&lt;/span&gt;div&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
+{% endif %}&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
+&lt;h3 id=&quot;post-body&quot;&gt;post body&lt;/h3&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;the post body looks similar:&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;pre class=&quot;language-html&quot;&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-html&quot;&gt;{% if image.src %}
+&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;&lt;/span&gt;img&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;class&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;featured-img&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;src&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;/posts/img/{{ image.src }}&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;alt&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;{{ image.alt }}&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
+{% endif %}&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;together, that sets up featured images for posts.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;hr&gt;
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;pagination&quot;&gt;pagination&lt;/h2&gt;
+&lt;h3 id=&quot;simple-pagination&quot;&gt;simple pagination&lt;/h3&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.11ty.dev/docs/pagination/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;external&quot;&gt;Post pagination in Eleventy is pretty straightforward&lt;/a&gt;, mostly requiring some specific front matter.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;The home page pagination I have set up here looks like the following (in &lt;code&gt;index.njk&lt;/code&gt;):&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;---
+pagination:
+  data: collections.posts
+  size: 13
+  alias: posts
+  reverse: true
+---
+&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;6 posts per page, paginate data from &lt;code&gt;collections.posts&lt;/code&gt; which we&#39;ll call just &lt;code&gt;posts&lt;/code&gt; for short, and do it in reverse (aka, most recent posts show first).&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.11ty.dev/docs/pagination/nav&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;external&quot;&gt;You&#39;ll also likely want previous and next buttons&lt;/a&gt;. I did. Here&#39;s what I have...&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h4 id=&quot;pagination-njk&quot;&gt;pagination.njk&lt;/h4&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;There&#39;s two components to this, the bigger one being this &lt;code&gt;pagination.njk&lt;/code&gt; template. Look, I like my little icons, ok? It takes an &lt;code&gt;olderHref&lt;/code&gt; and a &lt;code&gt;newerHref&lt;/code&gt;, and optionally an &lt;code&gt;olderTitle&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code&gt;newerTitle&lt;/code&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;pre class=&quot;language-html&quot;&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-html&quot;&gt;{% if olderHref or newerHref %}
+&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;&lt;/span&gt;nav&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;aria-label&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;pagination&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
+  &lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;&lt;/span&gt;ol&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;class&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;pagination {% if inPost %}post-pagination{% endif %}&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

+&lt;p&gt;Yup. The order of previous vs. next is totally unintuitive to me, too.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h3 id=&quot;complex-pagination&quot;&gt;complex pagination&lt;/h3&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;however, there&#39;s a catch. &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.11ty.dev/docs/quicktips/tag-pages/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;external&quot;&gt;Tag pages are &lt;em&gt;created&lt;/em&gt; via pagination&lt;/a&gt;! It&#39;s a lot harder to paginate those - you can&#39;t just use the front matter to set it up.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I untangled &lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/11ty/eleventy/issues/332#issuecomment-445236776&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;external&quot;&gt;this GitHub issue about double-layered pagination&lt;/a&gt; and came to the following solution...&lt;/p&gt;

+&lt;h4 id=&quot;tag-pages-njk&quot;&gt;tag-pages.njk&lt;/h4&gt;

+&lt;pre class=&quot;language-html&quot;&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-html&quot;&gt;---

+&lt;p&gt;note the pagination checking &lt;code&gt;tag.pageNumber&lt;/code&gt; against &lt;code&gt;tag.PageSize&lt;/code&gt; - the &lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/11ty/eleventy/issues/332#issuecomment-445236776&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;external&quot;&gt;original suggested solution&lt;/a&gt; in the GitHub post creates an issue where the pagination loops through &lt;em&gt;all&lt;/em&gt; of the tag pages bit-by-bit. This sorts that - hat tip to &lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/11ty/eleventy/issues/332#issuecomment-1248185406&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;external&quot;&gt;TheReyzar who mentioned the issue and showed part of their solution&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

+&lt;p&gt;with a bit of &lt;code&gt;display: grid&lt;/code&gt;, we&#39;re good to go, right?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h4 id=&quot;handling-multiple-aspect-ratios&quot;&gt;handling multiple aspect ratios&lt;/h4&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;this had worked so far because the photos on the lessons site are from my camera in landscape mode, producing neat, identical 3:2 aspect ratios. Let&#39;s throw a wrench in that and introduce a portrait-mode photo.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;thankfully, the CSS property &lt;code&gt;aspect-ratio&lt;/code&gt; makes this pretty straightforward, and &lt;code&gt;object-fit&lt;/code&gt; finishes the job.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;pre class=&quot;language-css&quot;&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-css&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token selector&quot;&gt;.taglist-link img&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt;

+  &lt;span class=&quot;token property&quot;&gt;object-fit&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; cover&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;;&lt;/span&gt;
+&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;}&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;(I also set the &lt;code&gt;missing-img&lt;/code&gt; &lt;code&gt;&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;/code&gt;s to have the same aspect ratio.)&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;hr&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;There&#39;s the good stuff from &lt;a href=&quot;https://inherentlee.codeberg.page/lessons/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;external&quot;&gt;11ty Lessons&lt;/a&gt;. Hope you enjoyed.&lt;/p&gt;

+    <content type="html">&lt;h2 id=&quot;context&quot;&gt;context&lt;/h2&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;recently, I&#39;ve been working on a &lt;a href=&quot;https://inherentlee.codeberg.page/spoonfairies/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;external&quot;&gt;website for a project called spoonfairies&lt;/a&gt;. On the providers page, we list a series of names along with their pronouns, location, and services offered. Visually, it looks like this:&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://leecat.art/img/spoonfairies-provider.png&quot; alt=&quot;A provider listing from spoonfairies. On the top row of text, it shows the provider&#39;s name in large purple text, then their pronouns in slightly opaque white and slightly smaller font, then aligned on the right, a map pin emoji and their general location in standard size white text. On the second row of text, it lists a few services the provider offers, comma separated.&quot; loading=&quot;lazy&quot; decoding=&quot;async&quot; width=&quot;1000&quot; height=&quot;147&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;pronouns&quot;&gt;pronouns&lt;/h2&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;at first, all three pieces of information in the top row had no extra styling - it was just a line of text with the same color and size throughout. The location bit also didn&#39;t exist yet, so we&#39;re going to briefly ignore it. Screenreader testing (with NVDA, specifically) informed me that, when reading through a long list of providers, parentheses become &lt;em&gt;very&lt;/em&gt; irritating. Imagine hearing the following:&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;blockquote&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Lorem Ipsum left parentheses she slash her right parentheses web accessiblity webdev. Dolor Sit left parentheses they slash them right parentheses housecleaning. Amet Consectetur left parentheses he slash him right parentheses webdev spreadsheets software.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;/blockquote&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;...ad nauseam. Kinda irritating.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h3 id=&quot;the-fix&quot;&gt;the fix&lt;/h3&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;put the pronouns in a span that provides special styling, and use &lt;code&gt;::before&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code&gt;::after&lt;/code&gt; to apply parentheses.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;pre class=&quot;language-html&quot;&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-html&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;&lt;/span&gt;a&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;href&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;/providers/lorem-ipsum&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
+    Lorem Ipsum
+    &lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;&lt;/span&gt;span&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;class&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;pronouns&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;she/her&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;/&lt;/span&gt;span&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
+&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;/&lt;/span&gt;a&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
+&lt;pre class=&quot;language-css&quot;&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-css&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token selector&quot;&gt;.pronouns::before&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt;
+    &lt;span class=&quot;token property&quot;&gt;content&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token string&quot;&gt;&quot;(&quot;&lt;/span&gt; / &lt;span class=&quot;token string&quot;&gt;&quot;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;;&lt;/span&gt;
+&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;}&lt;/span&gt;
+&lt;span class=&quot;token selector&quot;&gt;.pronouns::after&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt;
+    &lt;span class=&quot;token property&quot;&gt;content&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token string&quot;&gt;&quot;)&quot;&lt;/span&gt; / &lt;span class=&quot;token string&quot;&gt;&quot;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;;&lt;/span&gt;
+&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;}&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;the slash is the magic there.&lt;/strong&gt; The string before the slash indicates the visual content, and the string after the slash is the alternative text content. I went happily on my way.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;plus, this is neat - now I can style the pronouns separately. Let&#39;s make them the standard text color rather than the link color, and a bit smaller, and a smidge opaque... nice.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;location&quot;&gt;location&lt;/h2&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;ooh, time to implement locations! I did my same ol&#39; trick.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;pre class=&quot;language-html&quot;&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-html&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;&lt;/span&gt;a&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;href&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;/providers/lorem-ipsum&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
+    Lorem Ipsum
+    &lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;&lt;/span&gt;span&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;class&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;pronouns&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;she/her&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;/&lt;/span&gt;span&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
+    &lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;&lt;/span&gt;span&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;class&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;location&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Tacoma&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;/&lt;/span&gt;span&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
+&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;/&lt;/span&gt;a&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
+&lt;pre class=&quot;language-css&quot;&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-css&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token selector&quot;&gt;.location::before&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt;
+    &lt;span class=&quot;token property&quot;&gt;content&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token string&quot;&gt;&quot;📍&quot;&lt;/span&gt; / &lt;span class=&quot;token string&quot;&gt;&quot;is based out of&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;;&lt;/span&gt;
+&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;}&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I even added actual alternative text rather than an empty string to provide some context. Pronouns, I figured, could exist without much context, as it&#39;s pretty common for them to follow directly after names in introductions, but location isn&#39;t as much of a given.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;again, style em up nice, more of a standard text look, right-aligned. Cool.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;a-bigger-problem-than-parentheses&quot;&gt;a bigger problem than parentheses&lt;/h2&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;...then I did some screen reader testing. Which I should have done directly after the pronouns bit. Turns out, I wasn&#39;t thrilled with what the &lt;code&gt;&amp;lt;span&amp;gt;&lt;/code&gt;s did.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;at least with fairly default settings in NVDA, the &lt;code&gt;&amp;lt;span&amp;gt;&lt;/code&gt;s broke up the way the link was read out. Suddenly, I was getting:&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;blockquote&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;visited link Lorem Ipsum visited link she slash her visited link Tacoma&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;/blockquote&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;this is all one link, mind you. The &lt;code&gt;&amp;lt;a&amp;gt;&lt;/code&gt; tag isn&#39;t broken into three links. But the &lt;code&gt;&amp;lt;span&amp;gt;&lt;/code&gt;s apparently break up the screen reader output anyway (in NVDA, that&#39;s a continual caveat).&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;ooookay... what next?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h3 id=&quot;total-overhaul&quot;&gt;total overhaul&lt;/h3&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I moved away from my &lt;code&gt;content&lt;/code&gt; approach entirely (well, I kept it around as a failsafe, but it&#39;s not running the show now). Instead, I switched over to an &lt;code&gt;aria-label&lt;/code&gt; for the whole link.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;pre class=&quot;language-html&quot;&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-html&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;&lt;/span&gt;a&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;href&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;/providers/lorem-ipsum&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
+    &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;aria-label&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;Lorem Ipsum she/her is based out of Tacoma&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
+    Lorem Ipsum
+    &lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;&lt;/span&gt;span&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;class&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;pronouns&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;she/her&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;/&lt;/span&gt;span&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
+    &lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;&lt;/span&gt;span&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;token attr-name&quot;&gt;class&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token attr-value&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation attr-equals&quot;&gt;=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;location&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Tacoma&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;/&lt;/span&gt;span&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
+&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token tag&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;/&lt;/span&gt;a&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;token punctuation&quot;&gt;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;(technically, all this is templated to hell and back. I would hope that&#39;s obvious given I&#39;m talking about &lt;em&gt;lists&lt;/em&gt; of these entries.)&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;now, after more screen reader testing, it reads out smoothly. The &lt;code&gt;aria-label&lt;/code&gt; precludes the actual link text and cleanly says what needs to be said, with nothing breaking up the text and the whole thing easily recognized as one link. &lt;em&gt;And&lt;/em&gt; I&#39;ve got my fancy styling. Sweet.&lt;/p&gt;
