Cookie Consent throw an error after an update to v4.8.0

[JOduMonT]

Hi;

After an update of Themes Academic to v4.8.0" used with Netlify and Hugo version to v0.65.0

• Cookie Consent JS don't work (locally and remotely)

Particularity of my setup

1. I downloaded all js and css locally (as explained in https://sourcethemes.com/academic/docs/**offline-site**/) and it was working well before the update
2. in site_js.html I don't see anything related to cookie_consent
3. my netlify.toml

[build]
  command = "hugo --gc --minify -b $URL"
  publish = "public"

[build.environment]
   HUGO_VERSION = "0.65.0"
  HUGO_ENABLEGITINFO = "true"

[context.production.environment]
  HUGO_ENV = "production"

[context.deploy-preview]
  command = "hugo --gc --minify --buildFuture -b $DEPLOY_PRIME_URL"

[context.branch-deploy]
  command = "hugo --gc --minify -b $DEPLOY_PRIME_URL"

[[headers]]
  for = "*.webmanifest"
  [headers.values]
    Content-Type = "application/manifest+json; charset=UTF-8"

[[headers]]
  for = "index.xml"
  [headers.values]
    Content-Type = "application/rss+xml"

Cookie Consent give me an error:

ERROR 2020/05/02 06:40:46 render of "page" failed: execute of template failed: template: _default/single.html:5:3: executing "_default/single.html" at <partial "site_head" .>: error calling partial: execute of template failed: template: partials/site_head.html:175:5: executing "partials/site_head.html" at <partial "cookie_consent" .>: error calling partial: "/home/username/Public/Domain.tld/themes/academic/layouts/partials/cookie_consent.html:6:99": execute of template failed: template: partials/cookie_consent.html:6:99: executing "partials/cookie_consent.html" at <$js.cookieconsent.url>: invalid value; expected string

If I remove {{ partial "cookie_consent" . }} from the sitehead the issue don't appear, so I really have an issue with $js.cookieconsent.url (line 6 character 99)_

Now, what I should do to continue my debug ?

I might skip a version I think my bug is related to this refactor in v4.7

• Refactor cookie consent so that it will use local assets for offline sites

[gcushen]

The error implies that the data in themes/academic/data/assets.toml may have been changed or overridden from the data provided in the release. You might wish to remove any overrides/customizations which you have applied and re-install the theme.

Also, offline sites are more complex and the offline assets vary for each version. It's recommended to remove all assets related to offline sites prior to upgrading and then re-apply the offline steps on the new version once the upgrade is successful.

JFYI @gcushen I don't know what happened between March 2 (the day I opened this issue) and March 7 (the day you release version 4.8) but after losing few days of debugging my pseudo error which you believe it was on my side and too complex to support it has been fixed automagically with your "official" release
