Home page issue about anatole HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi just an update my website is hosted here: https://adamjones.website/

I would like my "About" page to appear automatically when the websites starts, but if i create a index.md and add the markdown from my about page, the site navigation fails?

Hey,

A quick update.

Setting type: post on my posts fixed this issue.

The index page now appears correctly listing my latest blog posts.

I'd still be interested to know if i could remove that and just have a satic text page as the default root page though.

Thanks

Hi Adam,

anatole comes with a custom archtype called post. If you create a new post by issuing the following command hugo new post\foo.md it will be automatically of type post and also appear on the frontpage.

Do I understand you correctly, that you want to use another site other than the index.html as your homepage? In this case you would have to patch the index.html with the single.html:

hugo new _index.md
cd themes/anatole/layouts
rm index.html
cp _default/single.html index.html

Hope this helps.
