Academic Theme: How do I embed content on the About/Homepage?

Using Themes

Hi,

I want to embed an element such as (http://timeline.knightlab.com/#make) on the main about page. Where can I place the iframe code to do this? Could you please let me know the html/css that would have to be overridden to embed such external objects?

Thanks

You should be able to get this to work. Two steps:

  1. Tell Hugo that you want it to allow HTML in markdown files. You need to set unsafe to true https://gohugo.io/getting-started/configuration-markup#goldmark.
  2. Copy and paste the HTML code you want into about.md (or whatever the file is called).
