I have a single HTML page in static. I’d like this page to use the same CSS/SCSS as the other pages on my website.
Is there a way I can use partials in this static page? If not, what is the best practice for dealing with this? Do I have to resort to injecting lines with something like sed?
No.
Hard to say without knowing the details. Is there a reason you can’t treat this file as content with a unique template??
How would I go about doing that? Since the .md page would have no content.
Let’s say I want the page to be under /foo/bar/api
then I would create
content/foo/bar/api.md
with the following content:
---
Title: API
layout: api
---
correct?
But I can’t ever get the layout to work.
I tried creating
layouts/api/single.html
layouts/foo/bar/api/single.html
but neither work
You should create a layout called api.html in the _default layouts folder.
Thank you. I think it’s picking up the HTML file now but the page I’m seeing is not what I would expect, the HTML page isn’t being shown correctly. Its different compared to what I see if I run an http-server and load the HTML page at http://127.0.0.1:8080/layouts/_default/api.html
The above is either a typographical error, or a conceptual disconnect.
The page you created is served at:
http://localhost:1313/foo/bar/api
Are you trying to open the file directly from the file system instead of serving it? If so, don’t do that.
Working example:
git clone --single-branch -b hugo-forum-topic-52479 https://github.com/jmooring/hugo-testing hugo-forum-topic-52479
cd hugo-forum-topic-52479
hugo server
There’s no error. Like I said I’m loading that page after starting an http-server (nodejs server).
Ok, so, the above isn’t a thing.
I suggest you compare what you have done with the working example that I provided.
I’m running hugo serve. The page I see is not the same page I see on the http-server.
So there’s no alternative to static pages?
Please see my previous comment.
I’ve got it working for a brand new hugo project with a recent hugo version.
In what version did hugo introduce layout targeting?
Found the issue. There was a single.html affecting how the page was being formatted.
