I cannot find a way to link new page to the website I built with this theme. Can you help explain the process?

I'm not sure if you meant for this to be the case, but the text in the sidebar is hardcoded:

https://github.com/kishaningithub/hugo-creative-portfolio-theme/blob/d3353596d6e6deca5f1908caa01faf80ae7bbaad/layouts/partials/sidebar.html

Maybe it should be a parameter instead?

On my localserver everything looks good. When I deploy (the public folder) to dreamhost www.namitamohandas.com , all the images have weird coloured bars across them. I've optimised the images to the container width.
The images are loaded by an img partial.

I've tried various kind of image profiles and optimisation techniques but nothing seems to solve it. Help

With the recent changes to allow for multiple portfolios, the theme now forces the homepage to be a subfolder. For example, the homepage of the example site is no longer https://example.org. Instead, the user is redirected to https://example.org/portfolio/.

I would prefer it if the homepage did not redirect to a subfolder, since I don't like the way it looks in the address bar. I know this is a small thing, but it also has a side effect of causing Hugo to set the homepage's .Title variable (page title in the browser tab) to the pluralized folder name. For example, if the homepage's folder is "portfolio", as it is for the example site, the page title will be "Portfolios". In order to change this, I have to add an _index.md file inside the "portfolio" folder with contents

+++
title = "Creative Portfolio"
+++

to keep the homepage's page title consistent with the website name. In my humble opinion, this is not a preferable default behavior for the theme.

What do you think? Is there a way to have multiple portfolios, and yet also keep the homepage URL as the base URL?

I understand you can add ~~~ or ``` to highlight code block but how to add a js code block to show output .

I can't get 'description' in the frontmatter of an Rmd file to show up on the main page of my page - it just shows the first few lines of the content. I have included in the .Rmd file the line description - "blah blah blah" but when I open up the .xml files to see what's going on, it is pulling the description as well as the first few lines of text from the body. This is making the portfolio items have very long text on the homepage.

I'm deploying to github pages (tried both via the /docs folder as well as gh-pages branch)
While a local hugo server runs the site perfectly,
building the site using hugo and deploying the build to the web, doesn't apply the theme at all, all the HTML files are extremely out of sync.

Fist of all, this is a great template, thanks!

I want to change the language in the contact form fields. I could not find any place to do that other than in the .html file. Is there a way to do that while still in the development phase?

Hey @kishaningithub ,

I have managed to finally upgrade the template to B4 - https://bootstrapious.com/p/creative-portfolio.

Take care,

Hi,

I tried to install the theme in a new hugo website, but the webpage is still blank.
hugo version: Hugo Static Site Generator v0.47.1/extended linux/amd64 BuildDate: 2018-09-25T03:41:10Z

reproduce:
shell:

- hugo new site test
- cd test
- git clone https://github.com/kishaningithub/hugo-creative-portfolio-theme.git
- rm -rf hugo-creative-portfolio-theme/.git
- cp exampleSite/content, static and config.toml into /test

if I inspect html rendered page, no error, no content ...

Any idea?

Hk

Hello kishaningithub,

Thank you for porting this great theme for hugo. I've really loved working with. I was wondering if you would consider adding black as an optional color scheme in addition to those already available. I understand black was not originally in the bootstrapious theme, but I would love it as an option.

If this is not possible, I was wondering if you knew of an easy CSS or JS override that I could use to make all the default colors black. Thank you so much for you help! This is my first experience with web development, so I really appreciate any advice.

Sidebar can't be scrolled when having long sidebar about and many social icons so I can't see the nice attribution :)

Link to demo given in the hugo themes page throws 404

Broken link - https://themes.gohugo.io/theme/hugo-creative-portfolio-theme/portfolio/

Totally agree with keanenmind. Used this theme in the past and really liked it, but had to abandon it because loadtimes were too long. Want to use it for a different project now, but the change to the default title feels weird. Just curious, if I have folder called "story", does it expand to "storys"?

When I was building my website firstly, my blog post wasn't able to load the Disqus comment section. It seems Disqus has a new version of the universal embed code https://disqus.com/admin/install/platforms/universalcode/. After I manually fixed the index.html file of my file in the public folder, it works. How to fix the mechanism automatically? Where is {{ template "_internal/disqus.html" . }}?

It would be nice to use media queries to adjust content based on viewport, rather than creating separate html elements for each viewport.

I have tried to follow your instructions to use disqus, setting disqusShortname variable, but it's throwing me errors.
I have checked the baseURL (in config.toml) and trusted domains (in disqus), but nothing seems to work. Could you please help me solve this issue?

How to set a preview of the card as a picture downloaded from the network.

I cloned the repo and tried to build the site using hugo -v --source exampleSite from your travis config script, but received the error
Error: Unable to find theme Directory: ~hugo-creative-portfolio-theme/exampleSite/themes/hugo-creative-portfolio-theme

I also tried downgrading my hugo installation from 0.55.6 to 0.40.3 to match the travis build in case themes weren't required previously, but no luck.

If I'm missing a step, let's add it to the README.

This could also be related to your issue on the hugoThemes page

Thank you for creating this - I attempted building site with it which ran great with hugo server version 17 but when I moved public folder to AWS s3 the links had issue running from AWS. Take a look at thechinagrove.com - hope its an easy fix...?

I was unable to view the About and Contact pages until moving them out from "content/about/index.md" and renaming them to "content/about.md".

You can see this on the demo page: https://themes.gohugo.io//theme/hugo-creative-portfolio-theme/about/

Hello,

this theme is so beautiful for my visual project portfolio.

Everything is worked, but I can't to change "portfolio/" to "/".

For example I want my website to be http://domain.com/ than "http://domain.com/portfolio/" .

Is this possible?

Thank you.

Hello & thanks for this beautiful theme.

I only have the question if it is possible - via Hugo - to make one portfolio always link/redirect directly to another URL (and not to the contents of the portfoiio.md).

Thanks in advance for an answer.

Hello,

I love the style of this theme.

But when click to enter each portfolio page, there is one third of blank on the right. is it designed in this way (to keep content slim) ?

Is it possible to have a param or workaround to let content to fill the whole space ?

Best regards,
wushuzh

Aa far as I know, the theme only shows portfolio folder. Is there a way to show posts?

I added a table in the markdown file without displaying the table style，help me!

Hi, thanks for this wonderful and yet simple theme!

I just want to know is there a way to add another portfolio (eg: stocks and bonds) to the theme? Each portfolio will have different set of cards of course.

Thanks in advance for your help here!

When I enter my social media information in the config.toml file, the email works fine, but Twitter re-routes to www.mywebsiteurl/Twitterhandle. The LinkedIn one doesn't seem to work at all (I entered the entire linkedin address https://www.linkedin/in/username) and an icon doesn't even appear on the site.

Love the theme, by the way!

I've noticed that many of the posts on http://maurer.club ignore the <!-- more --> and just dump all the blog content on the front page. Also in those cases html tags get ignored and stripped from the post on the front page, but it's still present in the main article.

I can't figure out why it's random. Maybe somewhere there's an open tag that messes with Hugo parsing the files?

Example where it gets ignored:
http://maurer.club/portfolio/sneakpeek/
second story on the front page. cut-off should come after the first paragraph.

I'm halfway done with the colorization, and still need to put in the

thought it's clever to save that for last, since that's when I'll be
most aquainted with the tools I'm working with. Here's a panel, sans

Not really spoiling anything storywise, guess you'll have to read it

I'm trying to include equations in math mode in my portfolio pages, and they are not rendering properly. My portfolio pages are .Rmd files, so I was under the impression that the equations would be processed and compiled with minimal issue. Is there a setting I need to change in one of the layout files? Thank you!

I recently updated to Hugo 0.19 (from 0.17), and when I re-built my site that uses this theme, it broke the grid layout on the home page -- the cards were not positioning properly vertically. Reverting back to 0.17 and re-building fixed the issue.

Hi, thank you for this great theme! The only major issue I've encountered is that there is large text hardcoded into the contact page:

"You can find me also on:
[social media icons]
Drop me a line, maybe?"

This wasn't to my liking, because "you can find me also on" is worded a little awkwardly, and I didn't want to include the social media icons again, since they are already in the sidebar. Also, "Drop me a line, maybe?" doesn't fit with the style of my site.

I was able to remove this myself by editing one of the template html pages, but I would prefer to easily customise this text via the index.md page in the content folder. Thank you!

Hello!

I've stumbled upon the very same issue as the dim0627/hugo_theme_beg#19:

Is this theme not have opengraph support?
Could you add this feature or let me know how to add it myself?

Great theme, very lovely port. Firstly, it seems like posts are not displayed (the default rmarkdown post for example I can't find anywhere on an example site). Second, how does it order the portfolio/posts? Is it based on the weight parameter in the header of each post? If not, how can I go about customising this?

when site is served with hugo server --buildDrafts will serve the page with beautiful theme. But when the public directory is built with command hugo -t hugo-creative-portfolio-theme. Theme is not applied. it looks very native html layout.

Nice work on this theme ! Suggestion -- you could add the version of the original that you drawing from. I think it is 1.0 and based upon Bootstrap 3.3.7, but I have no idea which version you have used. Thanks.

It would be great if it were possible to configure a minimum portfolio card size by defining a parameter in config.toml file.

I, for instance, love the theme, but for my use case a bigger card would be most beneficial. ¿Do you think that would be possible/feasible?

P.S.: great work! the theme is slick and works like a charm 👍

Hello Kishan,

I really like this theme and I'm slowly getting to understand it and the code, etc. (I am a novice.)

What would be a really good feature would be to have more than just the home page doing the masonry tile 'shuffle'. Ideally, I'd like to be able to add perhaps five or six other pages driven from the sidebar menu (so no drop down / fly out menu requirement) that would point to different 'portfolios' of assets.

Many thanks for the great theme and any ideas you have with this feature request.

Kind regards,

Luke (Derby, UK)

Where do I go to edit this?

Hello, is it possible to change the number of columns in the portfolio?
I didn't find a way to modify it, yet.

I'm sorry if this is a really dumb question, but I added the config.toml file to the top level of my /hugo-creative-portfolio-theme directory and edited it, but then when I ran hugo server in terminal I got this error:

Error: module "hugo-creative-portfolio-theme" not found; either add it as a Hugo Module or store it in "/Users/<username>/themes/hugo-creative-portfolio-theme/themes".: module does not exist

I don't understand what's it's asking for, and I haven't edited or moved any other files. Does the config.toml file need to go somewhere else? I'd appreciate any help anyone can give. Thanks!

I've read keanemind's post to add an _index.md file to the portfolio folder, but I'm having trouble getting it to show up on my site. Is there something else I have to do?

Hello,

Thank you @kishaningithub for creating such a great Hugo theme! I've got a question as a new user:

I noticed that when I use hugo new to add pages to a new section, the page title for that section is automatically pluralized. How do I prevent this? Which file should I modify? Thanks!

The current setup requires one to either create your own little shortcode which changes this for you, or to manually replace any images linked in the simple way with the html method.

It takes away some usability for those who use a headless CMS to publish content.

Greetings — thanks for a very nice theme.

Question: is it possible to have links within text revealed on mouseover? I would like to avoid having clicks on an item lead to another page, but would like to be able to link directly to external pages. If this doesn't make sense, please ask for clarification.

Thank you!

Would it be possible to have tags or categories for the posts? I would be awesome
