BoltCMS fixtures are required
Hello,
I installed Bolt CMS using Composer with the command composer create-project bolt/project myprojectname. However, I chose not to install the fixtures during the setup bin/console bolt:setup as I didn’t need the dummy data.
When I visited the website, I encountered the default front-end page as shown in the screenshot below:
After that, I accessed the admin dashboard and created a homepage. The page I created appears correctly, but there are issues with the rest of the sections. It displays "no content" for those sections, and the header still contains placeholder data like "sub1" and "sub2."
My question is: Is it necessary to install the fixtures during the Bolt CMS installation for the content and header data to be properly initialized?
Hi,
Without fixtures, it's normal to experience errors on the various menus and pages.
The menu is configurable via the config/bolt/menu.yaml file.
I recommend installing Bolt with fixtures first to familiarize yourself with how they work, then reinstalling it without them to develop your site. This way, you'll always have a reference in addition to the documentation: https://docs.boltcms.io/
