The count starts at 0 relative to the shortcode's parent: Either the page or the surrounding shortcode.
Access it in a shortcode like this:
```bash
Ordinal is {{ .Ordinal }}
```
Note that this is a shared ordinal for all shortcodes in the relevant context, so, as an example, you have this in a content page:
```markdown
This is a shortcode:
{{< hello >}}
This is another shortcode:
{{< hugo >}}
The `.Ordinal` you get in the two shortcodes above is 0 and 1.
```
See #3359
This resolves some surprising behaviour when reading other pages' content from shortcodes. Before this commit, that behaviour was undefined. Note that this has never been an issue from regular templates.
It will still not be possible to get **the current shortcode's page's rendered content**. That would have impressed Einstein.
The new and well defined rules are:
* `.Page.Content` from a shortcode will be empty. The related `.Page.Truncated` `.Page.Summary`, `.Page.WordCount`, `.Page.ReadingTime`, `.Page.Plain` and `.Page.PlainWords` will also have empty values.
* For _other pages_ (retrieved via `.Page.Site.GetPage`, `.Site.Pages` etc.) the `.Content` is there to use as you please as long as you don't have infinite content recursion in your shortcode/content setup. See below.
* `.Page.TableOfContents` is good to go (but does not support shortcodes in headlines; this is unchanged)
If you get into a situation of infinite recursion, the `.Content` will be empty. Run `hugo -v` for more information.

This applies to both regular templates and shortcodes. So, if the site language is French and the output format is AMP, this is the (start) of the lookup order for the home page:
1. index.fr.amp.html
2. index.amp.html
3. index.fr.html
4. index.html
5. ...
Fixes#3360
This commit allows shortcode per output format, a typical use case would be the special AMP media tags.
Note that this will only re-render the "overridden" shortcodes and only in pages where these are used, so performance in the normal case should not suffer.
Closes#3220
Before this commit, Hugo used `html/template` for all Go templates.
While this is a fine choice for HTML and maybe also RSS feeds, it is painful for plain text formats such as CSV, JSON etc.
This commit fixes that by using the `IsPlainText` attribute on the output format to decide what to use.
A couple of notes:
* The above requires a nonambiguous template name to type mapping. I.e. `/layouts/_default/list.json` will only work if there is only one JSON output format, `/layouts/_default/list.mytype.json` will always work.
* Ambiguous types will fall back to HTML.
* Partials inherits the text vs HTML identificator of the container template. This also means that plain text templates can only include plain text partials.
* Shortcode templates are, by definition, currently HTML templates only.

This commit fixes two different, but related issues:
1) Live-reload when a new shortcode was defined in the content file before the shortcode itself was created.
2) Live-reload when a newly defined shortcode changed its "inner content" status.
This commit also improves the shortcode related error messages to include the full path to the content file in question.
Fixes#3156
Note that this looks like overkill for just the logger, and that is correct,
but this will make sense once we start with the template handling etc.
Updates #2701
Add DocumentName (path to the file being rendered) to RenderingContext
and use that information to include the path in the error print.
See #2399Closes#2567
This is the nth attempt to fix an issue by changing the placeholder token pattern, but
now we actually have tests for all the historic trouble cases.
Fixes#2223
This is needed to make shortcode users happy with the new multilanguage support,
but it will also solve many other related posts about "stuff not available in the shortcode".
We will have to revisit this re the handler chain at some point, but that will be easier
now as the integration test story has improved so much.
As part of this commit, the site-building tests in page_test.go is refreshed, they now
tests for all the rendering engines (when available), and all of them now uses the
same code-path as used in production.

Fixes ##1076
This issue was introduced as a fix to shortcode not working in RST.
One could argue that Blackfriday and friends should handle `#` in titles, but that will be a discussion
for another day.
The new placeholder pattern should be RST safe and work with titles.
And now with a test so this doesn't break again.

If Page.Markup was not set by the user, it will now be set after
guessing from the file extension. This means, Page.Markup will be set in
any case. It can be used by a theme to differentiate between markup
types.
Fixes#1950
We can of course skip reading the entire byte slice again and again.
This was a slip in the original implementation; functionally the same,
but is slightly faster, esp. for larger data sets with many shortcodes:
```
benchmark old ns/op new ns/op delta
BenchmarkReplaceShortcodeTokens-4 15505 14753 -4.85%
benchmark old allocs new allocs delta
BenchmarkReplaceShortcodeTokens-4 1 1 +0.00%
benchmark old bytes new bytes delta
BenchmarkReplaceShortcodeTokens-4 3072 3072 +0.00%
```
It would be helpful to know whether a shortcode was called with positional or
named parameters. This commit adds a boolean `IsNamedParams` property to the
`ShortcodeWithPage` struct.
Currently a `[]byte` copy is returned. In most cases this is the safe thing to do, but we should just modify/grow the slice as needed.
This is faster and consumes less memory:
```
benchmark old ns/op new ns/op delta
BenchmarkReplaceShortcodeTokens-4 7350 4419 -39.88%
benchmark old allocs new allocs delta
BenchmarkReplaceShortcodeTokens-4 5 1 -80.00%
benchmark old bytes new bytes delta
BenchmarkReplaceShortcodeTokens-4 4816 1152 -76.08%
```
This commit is aso a small spring cleaning of duplicated code in the different `PageConvert` methods.
Fixes#1516
