Hugo not generating pages at all

support
1

Hi,

I’m testing out Hugo (repository here), and I have a bunch of leaf bundles which aren’t getting generated. Curiously enough, it creates a folder for the post in public if there’s anything other than the index.md file, for example, for odd-radio-circles it creates the folder and copies the image. In the debug output it says it’s generating the pages when it actually isn’t -

I feel like I’m missing something fundamental. Any help will be appreciated.

Your theme expects your “posts” to be in the “post” (singular) directory.

Ah, that was a simple fix. I had even looked at my theme’s exampleSite directory and noticed it had post but I didn’t think much of it.

Thank you!
