Running the quick start demo

Hi,
thanks guys for the great work and wonderful themes!
I am trying the quick start demo and followed the exact steps, but when I run hugo server or hugo server -D I get an empty page!
Can anyone help what is the problem? Thank you.
Here are some info:

OS: linux

Hugo version: hugo v0.92.2+extended linux/amd64 BuildDate=2023-01-31T11:11:57Z VendorInfo=ubuntu:0.92.2-1ubuntu0.1

Go version: go 1.23.2 from Canonical✓ installed

Theme: anake

Content of quickstart/archetypes/default.md:

title: "{{ replace .Name "-" " " | title }}"
date: {{ .Date }}
draft: true

You’ve installed the extended edition, which is great, but you’ve installed the wrong version. I recommend that you install the latest release, then try again.

an empty page

What do you mean by empty page? A full white page or a page with no content, but black bars on top and bottom? The latter was an issue that I somehow fixed over the last 48 hours, so if you try again with the latest main branch it might work (with a current Hugo version). There was an issue when you run hugo server from the theme-root instead of the exampleSite directory.

Also, I see in your list theme: anake. The themes name is ananke.

@jmooring is right too, you will need to install a later version or retrieve the theme at an earlier release.

Thanks @jmooring ! I installed hugo v0.136.2 and now it works as expected :slight_smile:
