Example site about/_index.md overlap? #30

Closed humanfactors closed 1 year ago

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 :)

Sorry for the late response but I'm not using the theme anymore. _index.md was supposed to be a symlink to about.md but I guess when cloning the repo that symlink is lost. U've update the theme with your suggestion, thanks.
