Some HTML files get lost, how to force them?

Embed HTML file in page

Well for some reason, HTML files that are in a resources folder get lost along the way. A file like content/posts/post_1/resources/myfile.html won’t be accessible via http://mysite.com/posts/post_1/resources/myfile.html. The same file renamed to content/posts/post_1/resources/myfile.txt will, however, be accessible through http://mysite.com/posts/post_1/resources/myfile.txt. I guess that somehow Hugo filters out HTML files that are inside a resources folder.

Recently I found some html files are not lendered by hugo, like above.

Of course the html files in static are copied but I want to lender all html files in normal content folders when I use iframe tag. For now I avoid these by ‘renaming’: ① just save example.html as example.fig, ② <iframe scr="example.fig"> ③ It works, but unhappy …

I’m using hugo v0.136.0 and I know there is no flag exactly same to --forceSyncStatic, but I believe there are other approach, for example, hugo.toml. Is it?

Breaking change in hugo 0.123
a html file in a bundle is a page resource and now page resources won’t be copied consistently.

you will have to manually publish your html files in the called template (usually single.html)

{{ range .Page.Resources.Match "**.html" }}
  {{ $publishPath := urls.JoinPath $.RelPermalink .Name }}
  {{ (.Content | resources.FromString $publishPath).Publish }}
{{ end }}

Solution taken from:

Companion page-bundle HTML files not being copied to subfolder of output directory anymore

TLDR: The new behavior is expected/as-designed. Example Let’s use the following example to see the difference between v0.122.0 and v0.123.0. content/ └── p1/ ├── a.jpg ├── b.html ├── c.md └── index.md v0.122.0 (incorrect) Available as a page resource Published (copied to public) content/p1/a.jpg content/p1/b.html content/p1/c.md v0.123.0 (correct) Available a…

now page resources won’t be copied consistently

A better way to describe this…

With v0.123.0 and later, a page resource with a ResourceType of page is not published.

A leaf bundle with resources might look like this:

content/
├── example/
│   ├── a.md      <-- resource type = page
│   ├── b.html    <-- resource type = page
│   ├── c.adoc    <-- resource type = page
│   ├── d.pdc     <-- resource type = page
│   ├── e.rst     <-- resource type = page
│   ├── f.org     <-- resource type = page
│   ├── g.jpg     <-- resource type = image
│   ├── h.mp4     <-- resource type = video
│   └── index.md  <-- the content
└── _index.md

In the above, g.jpg and h.mp4 are published^[1], while the others are not.

We don’t publish page resources with a ResourceType of page because these resources are typically used to contain content that will be included within a page (i.e., snippets).

Here’s a related issue, which I suspect will die of neglect:
