Theme Issue installation #1

Closed ProfessorYehoshua closed 1 year ago

ProfessorYehoshua commented 1 year ago

Hi Justin,

I have been trying to install/use your theme with a new hugo project after following down all the different rabbit holes of evergreen note taking.

I'm not sure if its the build, or adding little-ocean to my themes wrong, but I am receiving an error every time I try to "hugo server".

Do you have input for someone trying to use your template to improve their productivity? I guess I shouldn't get too ahead of myself if I can't get it passed the themes section.

Thanks!

Hey Josh! What version of hugo are you using? I can try to verify things on my local to see if I can reproduce the error.

Sorry for the late reply.

I am very new to Hugo, but maybe I can get your assistance in getting your theme ported over - and then I can PR and update the readme if you'll allow it.

In order to get a theme ported over in hugo - do I just change my theme in the config file once your theme is in my themes folder?

However - if I can't get it to work, I guess I can use Obsidian and "Andy Mode".

Hope you enjoyed your weekend!

Hmm... seems weird. I'd say upgrade your hugo version (yours is a couple years old) and try again. If that doesn't work, let me know what steps you did to install the template in your hugo server (here are the offical docs for installation: https://gohugo.io/getting-started/quick-start/#commands)

I upgraded my HUGO Version to the most recent - extended version and surprise!! - It works.

Thank you for helping me. (sorry for creating an issue on your repo - I just really wanted to learn how to use this theme, and I didn't know how else to reach you).

I really do appreciate the help you've given me.

Now time to learn some HUGO and note taking.

Glad you got it working! Good luck and have fun! 🙂

Hey Justin,

I'm running into a separate issue where my images aren't being called in markdown.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong - I'll post a link to the repo, and the netlify domain it's being hosted on.

Was just wondering if you could help answer what a couple lines of the code do. Specifically the ones that change "-" in file names. Some of my file names have "-" in them, not sure if that's the issue.

Hope you've been well over the last two months since we've last spoke!

Hello! Sorry you're seeing issues. The only change of "-" that I can find is in this file: https://github.com/justindsmith/little-ocean/blob/main/archetypes/default.md?plain=1#L2

Are you seeing the change anywhere else? That files shouldn't impact images, it's more about meta-data generation for the name of the page.

ProfessorYehoshua commented 10 months ago

Hi Justin!

I believe it may have been from me having conflicting folder paths as the two other "theme files" since I was following your naming convention as I was learning.

I believe it may have been looking in your folders "static/note-images/.png" (not proper web dev skills but I just included them all in the same folder and it worked).

So I guess I found a fix/work around hahaha, did this open as a new issue or did is it still closed?

Thank you so much - always!

Hi Justin -

I have a question. I'm not sure why I didn't write down the steps for the website.

I'm trying to now use your template to create my own digital garden - for my own notes. But god - I don't remember the steps at all.

hugo new site quickstart cd quickstart git init git submodule add https://github.com/theNewDynamic/gohugo-theme-ananke.git themes/ananke echo "theme = 'ananke'" >> hugo.toml hugo server using those steps.

Do I do the echo theme here?

I forked your repo - and its sitting at. https://github.com/ProfessorYehoshua/digital-garden

So would I do

hugo new site digital-garden cd digital-garden git init git submodule add https://github.com/ProfessorYehoshua/digital-garden themes/digital-garden echo "theme = 'digital-garden'" >> hugo.toml hugo server

?

I honestly don't remember the steps to get it up and running - I was going to just copy what I have locally from my other site - but if you have a second - I'd like to make sure I understand the proper way of doing it.
