Hi,
Today, I updated the theme PaperMod via git.
Then, after running rsync, all the post images declared in the frontmatter suddenly disappeared.
The images I put in the posts are OK.
I underline that nothing changed in the posts’ frontmatter nor the config.toml.
Is there someone who can help me?
Are all of the images visible when you build the site locally (e.g., hugo server)?
No, but I refer only to the information that is in the frontmatter as below:
---
title: "Newsletter XMPP di novembre 2023 - versione italiana"
author: "NicFab"
draft: false
subtitle: "Newsletter XMPP di novembre 2023 - versione italiana"
summary: "Questo numero copre il mese di novembre 2023 e sarà l'ultima pubblicazione per il 2023. Grazie a tutti i nostri lettori e a tutti i collaboratori!"

Now, if you reach the content related to the mentioned frontmatter - https://notes.nicfab.eu/it/posts/newsletter_xmpp/newsletter-xmpp-nov-2023/ - you can see that there are no images above the title but there are the images into the article.
At the same time all the frontmatter images on my Digital Notepad disappeared as you can see here: https://notes.nicfab.eu.
I don’t know why and how to solve.
OK, let me ask the question another way.
When you build your site with hugo server, does it look correct? I am trying to determine if this related to deployment.
@jmooring Thank you.
I thought I had already answered your question, sorry.
No, I see the same that is online.
My first guess is that you modified the original theme instead of overriding one or more templates. Then, when you updated the theme, you lost the modifications. Is that possibly what happened?
I removed the theme completely and I installed it again.
Do you suggest any option?
Yes, but prior to this, did you make changes to the PaperMod theme?
I didn’t modified the file under /themes/PaperMod.
I modified some parameters putting the files under /layout/partial
I also tried to delete them, but nothing changed.
What do you suggest me?
OK, so you modified the PaperMod theme, then lost those modifications when you “removed the theme completely and … installed it again”.
You need to revert the commit where you “removed the theme completely and … installed it again”.
The situation is the following:
I returned by Time Machine and put the entire Hugo folder as it was some days ago.
Infeed I did so, but I saw that it appeared as a string, and that was because the theme needed to be updated.
I tried to update it via git, but I received some errors, so I ran the following:
git stash and then git pull.
After that, the images disappeared.
If you update the theme you will lose the modifications that you made to the theme. I’m not sure how to make this any clearer.
