[Feature Request]: Option to render other .hbs (static pages) files like home.hbs

[claudemircasa]

Feature Description

Plublii is promising, but I'm creating a custom theme and it's not possible to add other static pages (contact, about us, etc). Is this scheduled for future releases?

You can achieve this by marking the post as hidden and/or creating additional post templates.

I believe it is not the same thing. I would like to be able to create a "contact.hbs" file with custom code, for example, and have this template compiled as a static page in the root directory as "contact.html"

Instead, you can create a post template featuring your custom code and apply it to the hidden post. This approach will function as you've described.

In general, the post marked as hidden works as a "static" page.

How do I create this additional template for posts?

I recommend visit the dev docs https://getpublii.com/dev/how-to-create-custom-templates/

@bobmitro Can you help me with this?

It should work; the code is ok. Where do you edit the theme files? Provide the path to your theme. Also, try restarting the app.
