Below the “The slides” heading there should be (and there WAs, perfectly working when I first created that page!!!) an embedded version of this slideshow of mine:
Now, all there is under that heading is an empty box. It does not matter what I put in the shortcode in place of X:
{{< slideshare X >}}
that is the numeric ID that slideshare provides for embedding in wordpress, or the last part of the embedding URL, that is if I write this:
{{< slideshare "key/pQnPU9W9pQqcHI" >}}
what really confuses me is that the HTML page generated by Hugo in the second case (as you can see yourself in the source code of the URL above) contains this HTML code:
<div class="embed slideshare">
And if I copy and paste that same HTML code in a file test.html, and load that in the browser, I do see the slideshow
What is going wrong here, and how to fix it, possibly in a theme-independent way?
slideshare is not an internal Hugo shortcode. It does not appear to be an Academic theme shortcode either. We don’t know where this shortcode is coming from. We cannot know where this is coming from, or what is in it, without seeing your site code.
This is why we ask that you refer to the Requesting Help guidelines linked to above.
