layout.markdown?

[StereoSteve]

Hello - 

I just started using Middleman.  I created a page markdown and middleman throws an error:

No such file or directory - .../views/layout.markdown

Is there a way for Markdown pages to use the layout.haml file?

Thanks,

Steve

In the currently released version of Middleman, this is not possible.

However, the recently released version of Sinatra does add this feature. You can read about it here:

http://www.sinatrarb.com/2011/03/03/sinatra-1.2.0.html

There is a prerelease branch up that builds on this new sinatra (and a newer compass/sass). If you install it:

sudo gem install middleman --pre

Then you *might* be able to use the new sinatra syntax in your config file. I haven't tested this.

set :markdown, :layout_engine => :haml, :layout => :post

this works, just tested it.

set :md, :layout_engine => :erb
with_layout "projects" do
page "/projects/*"
end


--> all files with .md extension will render with erb-layout.

Great stuff!
cheers,
