I am trying to run the Serif theme (Github & Render), and I have this issue. I have read through the boards, but cannot see how to resolve this

You are more likely to receive a prompt and accurate response if you post a link to the public repository for your project.

See https://discourse.gohugo.io/t/requesting-help/9132.

Let us see your code

Include a link to the source code repository of your project, because we really need the context of seeing your templates and partials to be able to help you. It is trivial to do a quick git clone on your repo, then run hugo server in your project, to help you out. On the other hand, recreating your code from screenshots, or sort of guessing at it, is not.

If you can’t share your repository for whatever reason, consider creating a dummy repo that you can share, which reproduces the problem you’re experiencing.

When I clone your site with:

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/OnPointSM/SERIF

I get:

Cloning into ‘SERIF’…

Submodule path ‘themes/hugo-serif-theme’ not initialized
Maybe you want to use ‘update --init’?

Look at the last two lines.

So I did this:

git rm themes/hugo-serif-theme/
git submodule add https://github.com/zerostaticthemes/hugo-serif-theme themes/hugo-serif-theme

Also, / is not a valid baseURL. Do something like:

baseURL = "https://example.org/"  # with a trailing slash
