Fleshed out aliases section, loading the "redirect" keyword so that it's easier to find. Specifically added a "how aliases work" section.
Added Discourse to comments section.
Fleshed out themes/customizing, because it seems to be the source of a lot of questions on the forum.
Added a bunch of clarifying narrative, looking at the discussion forum for what people are asking about, and what I myself was confused about.
* clearer separation of advantage of each style - server or client side - at the top
* inconsistent newlines (different column widths) so I just removed them from obvious paragraphs
* added that the highlight shortcode is not used for the client-side javascripts
* Hugo is taking crap for Pygments being slow, so tried to emphasize that's it's in Pygment's lap. I got your back, Hugo.
* On client-side added prism example
* More clarity on how the css and js needs to be added to your templates
* Explained how the client-side scripts work
Added bit about how the 404.html page has to be set to load automatically - auto on Github but needs config on other web servers.
Also tweaked the text a little to emphasize it's a node type, and explain a little more about where the 404 template should be saved.
Related to @bjornerik 's answer in this discussion: http://discuss.gohugo.io/t/inserting-data-from-data-file-into-content-file-newbie-question/1002/3 ... I figured I'd make myself useful and add the reference to the index function, on the go template primer page.
Also, I moved the reference links to the bottom.
A general comment: as good as these docs are, the primer at this point makes some assumptions about audience knowledge, so some might find it lacking. Once I understand better, I might make some more clarifying edits.
A couple of edits to clarify that the layout/partials folder can contain arbitrarily-named subfolders, since I found the examples using ``{{ partial "post/tag/list" . }}`` confusing. Some folders are named specifically to work a certain way with hugo, but although the examples use key functional section and taxonomy names like post and tag, it does not matter what they are called. Hopefully this will help other newbs.
One of the first things that new users have to understand is the
difference between Hugo as a web server and Hugo as a web site
generator. Issue #852 asked for documentation to make that clear.
This patch updates the overview page with that information. It will
seem repetitive to users that understand the difference. Weigh that
against the needs of those that don't.
Reference #852
Adds step-by-step instructions for installing from both brew and
the official tarball. Not sure if steps for installing from source
belong here, so left them out.
Fixes#1005
The `hugo help` output as shown in http://gohugo.io/overview/usage/
was not yet updated for v0.13. Thanks to @alebaffa for the heads up!
Also:
- Clarify that, after using `hugo server`, the bare `hugo` command
need to be run before deployment.
- Add a section on running `hugo` as production web server,
and add links to two blog posts of two Hugo users sharing
their experience.
Partially fixes: #852 and #937
See https://github.com/spf13/hugo/releases
What a pleasant surprise indeed!
How come I have never noticed them before?
And even `.deb` files are provided! How amazing!
Quote from @spf13: "I also think it's the better default
and should continue to be the case going forward."
Also mention the use of `hugo config` to check the current value
of `canonifyurls`, thanks to suggestion by @bep.
Fixes#802
- Clarify that Hugo may be built wherever Go is available;
- Add links to Git, Mercurial and Go;
- Unlist Bazaar: No libraries that Hugo depends on use it any more;
- Suggest the user to simply run `make` to build `hugo`
to get `hugo version` to display the commit hash.
