I want to redirect my Homepage to a content page

Hi!

Sorry for the necroposting, but I just hit this issue and finished the idea started here into a working solution. It’s correct that putting the render directive into index.html renders into the page itself. The solution is to say in index.md that this is the toplevel stuff. I did that by naming the whole contents of baseof.html and then redefining that block in index.md. My baseof.html now looks like:

{{- block "html" . }}
<html>
    {{- partial "head.html" . -}}
    <body>
        {{- partial "header.html" . -}}
        {{- partial "navigation.html" . -}}
        <div id="page">
        {{- block "main" . }}{{- end }}
        </div>
        {{- partial "footer.html" . -}}
    </body>
</html>
{{- end }}

And the index.md is:

{{ define "html" }}
{{ with .GetPage "/posts" }}{{.Render}}{{end}}
{{ end }}

I’d still prefer to do it differently, but this essentially shows all my “posts” on the index page - which is what I wanted. And I can even prepend some intro if I really want to.

Hope it helps somebody, cheers!
