this a template bug? am I doing something wrong?

Hugo 0.20 allows custom output formats such as JSON which can be fed to client-side search engines like Lunr.js to implement a search facility. See the hugo-theme-docdock theme for an example.

This post has a number of blockquotes, none of which have different formatting and so you can't tell what's being quoted. screenshot contains quoted and unquoted text.

Right now, with zero other configuration, you can put a favicon.ico in your site's static directory and basically any browser will find it. There are better, more modern ways to do favicons now, though, for example:

• support for high res icons
• support for specific device features like iOS, Android, and Windows

Generating the code/images for this is easy enough (see realfavicongenerator.net) but it would be nice to have a configuration flag for controlling the addition of this code.

To play devil's advocate, though, it might be better to just advocate adding this site-specific code to head-custom.html (see #17). Keeping the theme and its configuration simple is a plus.

The error I'm receiving is:

ERROR: 2017/01/08 10:33:57 general.go:236: theme/partials/sidebar.html is an incomplete or empty template

The source to the site is: https://github.com/cardoe/cardoe.github.io/tree/content

I wish I knew how to troubleshoot it further but the error message is pretty lacking.

not the greatest looking thing, but looks fine in post

I'm thinking that there may be a couple of options here.

1. hide code entirely on the front page
2. set fixed width/height so seeing it all would require scrolling

I recall seeing something about default truncating of characters on a the front page, so that might be part of the problem. I don't really need all of the code to display... but it'd be nice for it to be <pre><code>... if it does.

Hi Alan,

on GTmetrix.com I saw that loading the webfont (font-awesome) delays displaying the page significantly (shown there in the waterfall view). It was loaded after the css file was interpreted and took some time of course.

I tried to include the following in the head section of my page:

Of course this leaves out the other font encodings but I think including them all is overkill.

The result showed no change for the Firefox rendering engine but the Chrome engine (desktop and mobile) started to download the font in parallel to the images. So the load time was reduced. For slow connections the result may be different.
It also introduced a warning about "doubled" content: the woff file once without parameter and once with the version number appended as parameter.

What do you think about font-preloading? Do you have experiences regarding this?

Regards, Frank

Right now I add tags/categories to frontmatter but I don't use them. I'm not sure if I want to support both tags AND categories (I'm more partial to tags).

Great theme - but I have one problem.

It seems to me that if you have more blog posts than num_recent_posts there is no way to access older posts other than by categories. Most themes provide a sidebar listing of years so you can drill down.

Am I missing something / are you planning anything like this. Thanks again for the template..

I have

[blackfriday]
hrefTargetBlank = true

in my settings to get external links in a new window. The links in the sidebar section don't use this setting.

Regards, Frank

It would be useful to disable Disqus comments on certain sections, like disabling comment on "pages" so people cannot comment on an "About Me" page.

Hello,

I just tried switching my theme from a Lanyon theme to this one.

I installed the theme and set the theme name in my config.yaml.

Howevere when I then build the site I get:

ERROR: 2017/01/05 18:42:46 general.go:236: theme/partials/sidebar.html is an incomplete or empty template 

Do I need to manually install some partial?

I am getting the following error.

Reading your instructions, bootstrap was included? Did I do something wrong?

Error: Unable to find theme Directory: E:\hugo\output\themes\hugo-theme-bootstrap4-blog

Lots of little things break/change with Bootstrap v4 Alpha 6. Tracking some issues:

• .nav-inline is now gone so our share icons are messed up
• effective font size has increased (from 56px to 63px), could be from the related Normalize.css 4.2.0→5.0.0 update from Alpha 6 not an issue, also affects the blog example this theme is derived from

Reference the Alpha 6 announcement and the Alpha 6 ship list for some tips on stuff that changed.

If I'm not mistaken, it looks like there's no responsive nav on mobile devices? Should be fairly straight forward to implement with navbar given it uses Bootstrap I would think? Thanks.

I would like the ability to have more control over the contents of the navbar. The default behaviour is to link all pages that are not posts, but I have too many static pages, and only want a small subset of them in my navbar.

The default behaviour should be backward compatible, but with a params option that can be uncommented/enabled to display a custom hugo menu instead. This will allow me to add menu = "navbar" to only the specific pages that I want in the navbar.

I would be happy to create a pull request if you think this is a sensible change.

Hi Alan;

in the ReadME of this theme you point to : https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/blob/master/docs/content/content/multilingual.md which is a dead link

I did'nt the multilingual.md page.

May I suggest to point this link at : https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/tree/master/examples/multilingual

It's nice to have the option to let visitors read content right from the homepage without having to click through a summary. This proposal introduces the optional "truncate" site parameter.

If the truncate parameter is not present or is set to true, posts in the list template are rendered as they have always been, with the "summary" content view.
If the truncate paramter is explicitly set to false, posts in the list template are rendered via a newly introduced "content" content view that displays the full post .Content and does not append a "read more" link.

As I understand it there in Hugo localization date, but there is a workaround.
https://discuss.gohugo.io/t/generating-localized-dates-in-template/2393/4
Just do not understand how to apply it in the template.

If I remove from from baseof.html the following part of the CSS link, then the page will render properly.

integrity="{{ .Site.Data.sri.style}}"

However with the integrity variable the page won't render with style.

I wonder if anyone had an idea about making integrity work please?

Hi Alan,

I want to "misuse" the "about" sidebar section to display a link to my RSS feed.
I remember that you stripped down font-awesome to the needed symbols.

Can you pleas eadd the rss icons again? That would be fa-rss and fa-rss-square.

Many thanks!

Hugo 0.18 was just released and makes some improvements and standardizations to pages. For example, from the release notes:

Every Page now has a Kind property. Since everything is a Page now, the Kind is used to differentiate different kinds of pages. Possible values are page, home, section, taxonomy, and taxonomyTerm.

We need to just check that we're doing things the best way, and generally update conventions we're using to the latest ones.

Clicking on the "return" footnote reference for a footnote does not redirect to the part of the post where the footnote is referenced but instead back to the index page.

I was using a custom <!--more--> tag when the behavior was observed.

I just added a code block to a post like so:

{{< highlight csharp "linenos=true,style=monokai" >}}

 var assy = Assembly.LoadFile("C:\\SomePath\Plugin.Authentication.dll");
 mvcBuilder.AddApplicationPart(assy);

 var assy = Assembly.LoadFile("C:\\SomePath\Plugin.Markdown.dll");
 mvcBuilder.AddApplicationPart(assy);

{{< / highlight >}}

I notice that when I shrink the page size, the code block overlaps with the sidebar:

Has anyone come accross this / can anyone suggest any workaround for this?

On skrinshetah indicated in red.

would be interesting to add a

<link rel="license" href="{{ .Site.License }}"/>

to the template

that said, I don't understand why mine isn't rendering :/

https://bitbucket.org/xenoterracide/blog/src/da2beecd30782e7da8970ac5999efc5e1169d0e0/layouts/partial/head-custom.html?at=master&fileviewer=file-view-default

I've got a site set up behind a reverse proxy that forwards it requests to both deedlefake.com and www.deedlefake.com, as is the convention. In the Hugo config, I've configured https://deedlefake.com as the base URL. For some reason, although the rest of the font seems to load fine, the icons for categories and tags don't load if viewing the site through www.deedlefake.com.

This may be a configuration issue on my end, but, since I haven't been able to figure out a way to fix it, I'm filing this in case it isn't.

I suppose the other option would just be to have the www subdomain redirect, rather than attempting to show both, but I'd like to be able to if I can.

Hugo's built-in opengraph.html template leaves a few things to be desired. Two major sites using OpenGraph metadata are Twitter and Facebook. First of all it seems that the date tags need to be standardized.

• See: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/opengraph/object-type/article/
• See: http://ogp.me/

hmm... maybe a windows build issue? I've only noticed this on localhost, not when it builds in docker and serves from s3...

Hi,

I have two pages which are "public" in a sense but are excluded by robots.txt.
I would like to be able to turn the sharing icons off for these too - the same way as
the comments can be turned off (sharing = false).

Regards, Frank

The theme is very good.
When the "menu navbar" is made up of more than three links and view the mobile, it is a two or three lines, it does not look good. It is possible to make "menu navbar" icon, options config.toml?

When you click an author's name in a post summary or full page article you should go to a page of that author's posts.

Thanks for awesome theme. I have 2 questions (sorry if they look obvious, I'm newbie)

1. How to change highlight for source code ? For example here is an example of applying custom highlight_css for hugo-material-docs theme.
2. How to change width of the posts? is it possible?

Hi,

Are all pages in /content put into the main menu?

I have not set the menu front matter, but it is putting it in the main menu anyway.

Is there a way to configure this theme to not add .html to the end of all the post links for example

http://localhost:1313/blog/test.html

a prettier URL would be:

http://localhost:1313/blog/test
or
http://localhost:1313/blog/test/

Hi Alan,
Most conspicuously, I have an application of you to start Hugo with such a nice theme.

In my native language, font size is relatively bigger than that of English. I would like to shrink all of the font size by touching CSS file or so, if possible.

Can you provide from where I should start?
Please regard me with warm heart that I am a beginner in making a static blog.

Regards,
Kee-Hoon

I just noticed that my blog frank.tegtmeyer.net doesn't contain code for the cookie consent anymore.
Also settings like google-site-verification are lost.

The other blog (photoblog.tegtmeyer.net is still fine but is 37 commits behind your latest commit because I didn't update it yet.

Some tests showed that the .Site.Params map doesn't contain all the values from thew config file - only "author", "description" and "social" (an empty map).
The Params section is completely lost leading to skipping all things dependent on .Site.Param values.

So there is something weird going on.

Regards, Frank

After:

1. Setting this as my theme,
2. Setting disqusShortName in my sites config.yaml file
3. Setting comments: true in my yaml front matter

Disqus was still not visible against my post.

I looked at the single.html template which looks like this:

{{ if and (.Site.DisqusShortname) (ne .Params.comments false) }}
{{ partial "disqus.html" . }}
{{ end }}

I changed that to this and it now works:

<!--Disqus-->
  {{if .Params.comments}}
  <div class="container content">
    {{ template "_internal/disqus.html" . }}
  </div>
  {{end}}

Wondering why that was necessary!

We use Hugo's builtin metadata template to insert tags that help sites like Twitter and Facebook understand content better, but some of the metadata needs to be rooted in a proper Schema.org scope to be valid—you can see this by testing this theme with the Google Structured Data or W3C validator tools.

Google's Structured Data tool detects zero metadata!

W3C's validator doesn't like the metadata we're using because it isn't scoped.

Not really an issue but more a question.

Would it be hard to make this theme AMP compliant?
I just glanced over the ampproject website and it doesn't look so hard to do.
Images could be a problem and also the generated content itself but else?

What do you think?

Regards, Frank Tegtmeyer

i am new to hugo and this theme. every thing work fine when i run local server with this command
$ hugo serve --buildDrafts

but when i build static site with
$ hugo --buildDrafts
static site in public folder, some images(folder icon and social share image) not show. How can i fix this

thanks,

How do I edit content on the homepage?

With the current commit (81a7431) I get the following error:

ERROR 2017/03/20 18:14:44 Error while rendering "page post/2017/03/photoshoot-inga.md": template: /Users/fte/Sites/photoblog.tegtmeyer.net/themes/hugo-theme-bootstrap4-blog/layouts/_default/baseof.html:14:13: executing "schema-dot-org" at <imageConfig (printf ...>: error calling imageConfig: open /Users/fte/Sites/photoblog.tegtmeyer.net/static/https:/frank.tegtmeyer.tk/img/2017/03/Frank_Tegtmeyer__Portrait_2017_9Xan-730.jpg: no such file or directory

My images are remote (I use Cloudflare for them).

It would be nice to have the sidebar be optional, so users could opt for a single-column site. Right now we can simple not print the sidebar — for example, if a certain config option is present — but the main content doesn't fill the remaining space.

I'm not a Bootstrap expert so I'd need help with this.

Add a 404 page to this template.

Navbar links appear to be alphabetical, no matter the order in config. Is there any way to control that?

It would be amazing if the theme supported right-to-left (RTL) languages like Arabic. I think I could use something like bi-app-sass or css-flip but have zero experience with RTL CSS.

A quick, dirty hack with some gibberish + Google Translated Arabic text looks slightly promising (some block elements are flipped to the other side):

Sorry for the horrible Arabic. :)

It would be pretty compatible with blog conventions to have your Twitter, Google+, Facebook, etc links on the sidebar. It should be optional and ideally use the existing config options where possible (like params.social.twitter, which is already used by Twitter cards).

This could perhaps be enumerated like a menu, or like the social sharing links, and we could show Font Awesome icons for each link.

Eventually I will have more posts that can fit on any one homepage or tag list. Need to implement pagination!
