I can't see my content!
Is your markdown file in draft mode? When testing, run hugo server
with the -D
or --buildDrafts
switch.
Is your markdown file part of a leaf bundle? 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.
How do I schedule posts?
- Set
publishDate
in the page 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 setdate
1. - 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 or similar.
- If your site is hosted on a service similar to Netlify you can use a service such as ifttt to schedule the updates.

Can I use the latest Hugo version on Netlify?
Yes you can! Read this.
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:
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, 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
.
Do I need to install Git to create, deploy, and maintain a website with Hugo?
Technically, no.
Practically, yes.
- The primary installation method documented by most (perhaps all) themes is via Git or the Hugo Modules feature.
- The Hugo Modules feature requires Go, and Go “gets” with Git.
- A Git repository is required by CI/CD hosting (Bitbucket, Cloudflare, GitHub Pages, GitLab Pages, Netlify, et. al.).
- The canonical “last modified” date for content is its Git committer date; using anything else is error-prone.
-
See Configure Dates for the order in which the different date variables are complemented by each other when not explicitly set. ↩︎
