I’ve run into an oddity with printf and resources.Get. I’ve searched for hours trying to get an answer to the problem and, while I found a few similar cases, none fit it exactly enough to help. (I can’t put this on a repo right now, but I hope the following will be sufficient to explain. If not, ple…

content/posts/_index.md does not have a corresponding image.

@jmooring @gaetawoo oh, yes — sorry — assets/images/, definitely. :frowning: (I just mistyped that reference when trying to explain here.)

To avoid wasting any more of your time, I think it would be best if you were to provide a minimal reproducible example.

@jmooring Understood. Will get a minimal repo together.

Ah. So I then added a PNG ending in _index.png to cover that one, and it worked. Then I added that same file to my real site and am still having the same errors as before (expected images.ImageSource; got resource.Resource) — but with warnf back in place, I now see among the many entries: WARN 202…

Opinion: it would be less error-prone to use page resources for these OG images. Then you could use a generic name instead of having to match file names.

True, but I keep multiple posts in the same folder (arranged in a content/posts/[YYYY]/[MM] format) so I assume I’d still have to give each overlay PNG file a different name rather than, say, a generic name of overlay.png. …Unless I’m totally misunderstanding your meaning, that is.

Use leaf bundles . content/ └── posts/ └── 2022/ └── 07/ ├── my-first-post/ │ ├── index.md │ └── og.png └── my-second-post/ ├── index.md └── og.png

Also falls in the category of if I were starting over, rather than 200+ posts into my current setup. :smiley: But, duly noted, sir. I am always grateful for your help and time! Update: Finally found the problem. There were a few files that had typos in their names, along with two additional ones I’…

Well, post a successful example dangit!?
