Page bundle issue (Branch bundles for listing items)

[marmara34]

Hi All,

I am trying to categorize the items on this page. When I click the link of that page on the main, I want to arrive at a page which is similar to the main page where I can put tiles with the links to items page. I am not sure if this is the way to do it or are there other ways of categorizing on the theme I am using.

UPDATE 1: It worked after changing it from _index.md back toindex.md. It is really strange. Is there an issue with the Hugo rendering pages? I am using 0.37 64bit build
UPDATE 2: After restarting the Hugo server I see a blank page again
UPDATE 3: Maybe Hugo or the theme I use (Forty) sucks at this point. I have managed to see the layout I want once and created public folder to upload hugo-created html files on server (everthing works fine once it is static online). Right now I am working on something else (offline) and I sometimes still see the Hugo incorrectly rendering the page layout. If I am doing everything right, this must be a really annoying issue for Hugo.
For you information!

Thanks

I wrote to posts about using different templates:

See which template is used by Hugo

Cool - Thx for sharing and your very good post! I prefer to see the chosen templates and partials as comments in the html. Include e.g. {{ <!-- _default/terms.html --> | safeHTML }} or {{ `<!-- partials/head.meta.html -->` | safeHTML }} in the templates and partials. To keep track in the blocks: {{- block "main" . }} {{ `<!-- block main _default/baseof.html -->` | safeHTML }} {{- partial "main.blog.date.html" . -}} {{- partial "main.toc.single.html" . -}} {{ `<!--…

My experiences with Hugo's template lookup order

I just want to share some of my experiences by testing the lookup order for templates. I tested these and wrote them down the same time. Nevertheless I could be wrong in some cases. So if you have better solutions or remarks please don’t hesitate to share. In this example we work with a sample directory hugo-docs and different layout variants. For this purpose we create this directory (content/hugo-docs) and also create an index.md (note the spelling!) in this directory. This index.md will lat…

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the tips Leo,

I followed the instruction on the second link by adding a dir with the same name in both /content and /layout directories. Then created index.md file with layout set to "list" (to use the list.html which I placed inside dir I have created in layout directory)

Now I get an empty page (no 404 error) on my local server while i get this error on the page served on github

index.md file on directory named "insecticide" and located inside content/plant_protection/insecticide

---
title: "insecticide"
slug: "insecticide"

date: 2017-10-31T22:27:21-05:00
draft: false
layout: "ins_list"

İNSEKTİSİT

Note: I placed the necessary dir files in both theme’s original directory and the directory that i duplicated to put my edited files, but it still doesn’t work.

I believe the name should be _index.md. Please try.

Hi Leo,

This is what I read in the instructions you linked above.
For this purpose we create this directory (content/hugo-docs) and also create an index.md (note the spelling!) in this directory. This index.md will later contain the content for the page domain.tld/hugo-docs/.

If i name it as _index.md instead of index.md I no longer see the item named insecticide on the upper directory which you see now since i did not update the site after the change you suggested.

Hmmm, that’s weird. No idea so far. Did you read the section “Page Bundles” in the docs? Perhaps there’s more information for you.

I still have to change the index.md file to _index.md and then back to index.md again to see the page using the layout i want. When I make any changes on the page or restart the server I see a blank page. I guess it is a bug or something. Tried this with the latest build too (0.40).
