Re: Question Regarding Exporting A Single 'blog.org' File With Subheadings To Multiple Separate Markdown Files

[Samuel Banya]

Awesome thanks for this reference.

I wonder, would it make sense to name them in such a way that they could be 
ordered, or is Hugo smart enough to just pick up the latest posts based on 
export date?

Either way, thanks for leading me in the right direction, great reference.

Sincerely,

Sam
