Research direction

Start in layouts/software/term.html:76 and inspect how the posts collection is limited and how links are rendered below the grid. Verify the term pages for torch and sparklyr, then confirm that terms with more than 12 posts show the proposed count link to the matching /blog/?q=software: URL while smaller lists do not.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

/software/<name>/ lists at most 12 posts (layouts/software/term.html:76):

{{ range first 12 $posts }}

For software with more tagged posts, the rest are silently hidden:

  • /software/torch/ — 12 of 42 posts shown
  • /software/sparklyr/ — 12 of 22 posts shown

A reader on /software/torch/ has no way to discover that the canonical introduction post is even tagged.

Proposal

When a software term has more than 12 tagged posts, render a "See all N posts about name" link below the grid, pointing at /blog/?q=software:<name>.
