New section is a 404

support
1

I am using the reveal.js theme and am having trouble getting sections to work.

My sample project source is here: https://github.com/robertmarkbram/hugo-sample

I have added another section. This is the layout of my content directory:

$ tree content/
content/
|-- _index.md
`-- SectionTest
    `-- _index.md

1 directory, 2 files

But the new section gives me a 404:

$ curl http://localhost:1313/SectionTest
404 page not found

The default page has content: http://localhost:1313

And this is what I see when I start my server:

$ hugo server
Building sites … WARN 2019/04/25 17:43:30 found no layout file for "HTML" for "taxonomyTerm": You should create a template file which matches Hugo Layouts Lookup Rules for this combination.

Is this an issue about the layout folder?

Hi,

By default Hugo is configured to disablePathToLower = false. This means that content/SectionTest/_index.md will be found at localhost:1313/sectiontest/.

You can configure disablePathToLower = true in your config.toml if you want it to be published to /SectionTest/ instead.

Thank you… that’s one puzzle out of the way!
