Topic Name Display in /topics page

[kouloumos]

There is an issue with the topics-data.json generation in our content layer algorithm. Currently, the topics-data.json file is not displaying the correct names for each topic on the /topics page. Unlike tag-data.json, which correctly uses the title field for each topic (as coming from BitcoinOps), topics-data.json appears to use a different approach, resulting in inconsistencies in topic names.

Current Structure:

• tag-data.json: Groups topics into categories, showing the count of transcripts for each topic. Used for the /categories page.
• topics-data.json: Lists all topics with the count of transcripts for each, used for the /topics page.

Proposed Solution:

1. Consolidate JSON Generation: Since both JSON files represent similar data in different formats (by category and alphabetically), we can streamline the code by grouping the calculations and generation into a single method (still generating 2 different JSONs). This change will help avoid similar issues in the future.

2. File Renaming: For clarity, rename the JSON files:

   • tag-data.json → topics-by-category-counts.json
   • topics-data.json → topics-counts.json

This change will make the file purposes clearer and reduce the chance of confusion.
