Mermaid diagram not working for index page

[temiraevpg]

I'm starting to learn hugo. When using hextra via https://github.com/imfing/hextra-starter-template and cloning the repository on a PC, the test page with mermaid diagrams works, but I'm confused by the absence of the rest of the hugo folders in the project. Installation according to instructions:

1. Hugo Modules (Recommended)
2. Git Submodule

mermaid diagrams doesn't work

Hi can you provide a little more details, like the commands you use and some screenshots?

[temiraevpg]

terminal:

index file:

hugo.yaml

site page:

[imfing]

Can you use the template repository hugo.yaml config file?

https://github.com/imfing/hextra-starter-template

[temiraevpg]

hugo server did not start

[imfing]

can you try commenting out the module section in the config file?

[temiraevpg]

got this result

[temiraevpg]

Copied content files to the created site from exampleSite

It may be necessary to update the template installation information. Repeating steps from the instructions does not bring the desired result

[temiraevpg]

I copied all the files from the folders \my-site\themes\hextra: /assets, /data, /images, /layouts, /static and everything worked. The instructions for getting a working website are different from what we already have. It is not clear how to automatically update the theme files; when they are updated, this operation will have to be done manually, this is not the result that I expect.

@temiraevpg I recommend using the Hugo modules to initialize the site: https://imfing.github.io/hextra/docs/getting-started/#setup-hextra-as-hugo-module

or simply create a repo using the imfing/hextra-starter-template

I will look into the issue with using Git submodules.

@temiraevpg I think it was by design that Mermaid will not be enabled in the homepage. I will provide an option to override this behavior in the future.

In the meantime, if you follow the initial steps, and put the mermaid block in docs/_index.md which would display as normal.

Let me know if this works.

You are completely right it works. Doesn't work on the main page.
