Thank you

> Unfortunately, IkiWiki blogs use a [[ikiwiki/PageSpec]] to define the set of
> "posts" in the blog (through which the next/prev trail should range), and
> the current implementation of [[plugins/contrib/trail]] in terms of typed
> links would have a circular dependency if used with a PageSpec: typed links
> have to be added before PageSpecs are evaluated, because "A links to B" is
> something that can be in a PageSpec; but if you want to add typed links
> ("A is part of trail B" in this case) based on a PageSpec, then the PageSpec
> must be evaluated before the typed links can be added. Chicken/egg.

> of the `render` stage (after all pages have been scanned). This
> reduces the generic usefulness of typed links, though - in particular
> you can no longer use "is part of trail A" in a PageSpec. --[[smcv]]
