Cannot build or serve in Zola 0.17.2 about kodama-theme HOT 3 OPEN

First of all, thank you for making this template. I recently started looking into zola and found your template by looking specifically for academic templates. I think you did a very nice job, the theme looks very clean.

I had the same issue when initially setting up the theme. For one, I was confused about HAVING to set the extra variables, although this is something I can overlook, since silently applying default values can be even more confusing.

The issue for the default avatar images can also be resolved if you simply use

[extra]
# Put all your custom variables here

avatar = "img/avatar.jpg"
favicon = "img/avatar.jpg"

without the leading static. As outlined in the official documentation, zola will automatically look in the static directory for images. Hope this helps and will allow you to address the issue yourself. Thanks again for the theme, I will let you know if I find anything else.

Hello,
looks like the resize_image is not able to find the file static/img/avatar.jpg.

Can you try to copy the one from kodama-theme (should be in themes/kodama-theme/static/img/avatar.jpg) to /home/dad/website/mysite/static/img/avatar.jpg) ?

let me know if it worked.

Hello,
any progress on the issue ?

Adrien
