**Note:** The answers/solutions presented below are short, and may not be enough to solve your problem. Visit [Hugo Discourse](https://discourse.gohugo.io/) and use the search. It that does not help, start a new topic and ask your questions.
{{% /note %}}
## I can't see my content
Is your Markdown file [in draft mode](/content-management/front-matter/#front-matter-variables)? When testing, run `hugo server` with the `-D` or `--buildDrafts` [switch](/getting-started/usage/#draft-future-and-expired-content).
Is your Markdown file part of a [leaf bundle](/content-management/page-bundles/)? If there is an `index.md` file in the same or any parent directory then other Markdown files will not be rendered as individual pages.
## Can I set configuration variables via OS environment?
Yes you can! See [Configure with Environment Variables](/getting-started/configuration/#configure-with-environment-variables).
## How do I schedule posts?
1. Set `publishDate` in the page [front matter](/content-management/front-matter/) to a datetime in the future. If you want the creation and publication datetime to be the same, it's also sufficient to only set `date`[^date-hierarchy].
2. Build and publish at intervals.
How to automate the "publish at intervals" part depends on your situation:
* If you deploy from your own PC/server, you can automate with [Cron](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron) or similar.
* If your site is hosted on a service similar to [Netlify](https://www.netlify.com/) you can:
* Use a service such as [ifttt](https://ifttt.com/date_and_time) to schedule the updates; or
* Set up a deploy hook which you can run with a cron service to deploy your site at intervals, such as [cron-job.org](https://cron-job.org/) (both Netlify and Cloudflare Pages support deploy hooks)
Also see this Twitter thread:
{{< tweet user="ChrisShort" id="962380712027590657" >}}
[^date-hierarchy]: See [Configure Dates](/getting-started/configuration/#configure-dates) for the order in which the different date variables are complemented by each other when not explicitly set.
## Can I use the latest Hugo version on Netlify?
[Yes you can](/hosting-and-deployment/hosting-on-netlify/#configure-hugo-version-in-netlify)!.
## I get "... this feature is not available in your current Hugo version"
If you process `SCSS` or `Sass` to `CSS` in your Hugo project with `libsass` as the transpiler or if you convert images to the `webp` format, you need the Hugo `extended` version, or else you may see an error message similar to the below:
```bash
error: failed to transform resource: TOCSS: failed to transform "scss/main.scss" (text/x-scss): this feature is not available in your current Hugo version
```
We release two set of binaries for technical reasons. The extended version is not what you get by default for some installation methods. On the [release page](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/releases), look for archives with `extended` in the name. To build `hugo-extended`, use `go install --tags extended`
To confirm, run `hugo version` and look for the word `extended`.
