Menu Weight as 0 Ignores Order By Weight

I setup the config.yaml to have the menu weights like this:

menu:
  main:
    - weight: 0
      identifier: blog
      name: Blog
      url: "/blog"
    # ...
    - weight: 4
      identifier: contact
      name: Contact
      url: "/#contact"

And on the layout for the navbar menu, I have this in the range:

{{ range .Site.Menus.main.ByWeight }}
<li><a href="{{ .URL }}">{{ .Name }}</a></li>
{{ end }}

But when it gets rendered, it didn’t put the menu items in order as if it’s ignoring the weights I gave it. Is there anything I am missing either in the menu config or the templating?

For page weights, 0 equates to undefined.
It’s probably the same for menu weights.
Change the blog weight from 0 to 1.

That is an interesting quirk to deal with but regardless, the problem is quickly resolved. Thank you.

Agreed. You can use negative or positive integers, but not zero.
