Rename episodes with leading 0s

If you look at this view, the episodes are all out of order. If you name the files like "001" for 1 and "012" for 12, then they would appear in the correct order.

I've thought about this.
The main problem is that it would require fixing links to episodes everywhere I've shared them - which is quite a task 😅
I've been thinking that having a catalog would be a better solution 🤔
Thoughts on this?

[KevinColemanInc]

Maybe make a new folder?

[yamalight]

That'd also mean that current URLs change - which is something I want to evade 🤔

[KevinColemanInc]

You can leave the old folder and the content or just leave it with a link to the new location in each of the existing files?

Or create a new folder call "season 2" and just add better naming in that file.

[yamalight]

that doesn't really solve the problem in the long run though - just for the first 999 episodes (being a bit optimistic here) 🤔

[KevinColemanInc]

999 episodes is 19 years from now...

YY-WW-title

so for this week it could be 18-32-title.md, that will take you to 2099 and you will be (probably) dead before that becomes a problem :)

[yamalight]

I like how that sounds 🤔 Could also have a folder split by years.
This + symlinks to "legacy" episodes could work quite well 🤔

[KevinColemanInc]

empty file with a text and link to the new location.. I have seen a few github projects do that. github in generally is not very good at hosting web content like this

[yamalight]

So, it won't follow symlinks? Bleh, that's annoying 🤔
File with a link might be a solution, yeah. Will dig around a bit more..

@yamalight symlinks work like a charm. see what we are doing here: https://github.com/LiskHQ/lisk-elements

[yamalight]

@yatki oh, nice! that makes thing way easier. thanks for the heads up! 👍
