Example site about/_index.md overlap?

Open humanfactors opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Forgive me if I'm missing something, but I found the files in the example site did not produce a "complete" example.

The default _index.md file contains simply the text about.md: https://github.com/ojroques/hugo-researcher/blob/cd2233558f3ac4c552bd2d6f408c381bda26974b/exampleSite/content/_index.md?plain=1#L1

Thus, when the example site is copied over, the index page is effectively not working. The user then needs to populate the index page with the contents from the about.md file, update the "about" URL in the menu.main toml to url = "/", then delete the actual about.md file.

If the landing page is intended to be the about.md file — would it be possible to make that the contents of the _index.md file?

Again, this is a pretty minor issue, but I admit themes are more accessible for new users when the example site works out of the box as intended.

Appreciate your work on this theme — I'm using it in a Hugo tutorial for researchers :)
