However, before this I ran into a slew of issues with the badly ported [**Tracks**](https://github.com/ageekymonk/hugo-tracks-theme) theme from WordPress + + +If you want a general overview, feel free to check out the relevant [commit](https://github.com/bdebyl/hugo-tracks-theme/commit/86ca4963c4d0a67ddb1560197c91617e7d3e3754) on my GitHub fork. + + + +# Rough Start +The first thing I noticed was that the navigation bar seemed a bit off. + + +{{< image classes="center" src="https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/basdb-static-content/site-static/img/header-problem.png" title="Navbar Issue" >}} + +The links show as numbers and attempt to link to `/0`, `/1`, and `/2` which lead to 404s. This didn't seem like the intended functionality. It turned out to be a problem with the usage of the following variable: `.Site.Sections` + +As I'm still learning the ins and outs of Hugo, I'm not familiar with what a section *should* be, but I did know the `sidebar.html` layout file didn't seem to do anything nor exist anywhere on the site (even on mobile screen sizes). I did attempt to find out how sections work by experiment with directories along with `index.md` / `_index.md` files within the `content/` folder. Though, I was unsuccessful in getting the structure I wanted to appear, appear, along with not really understanding why `0` and `0` pages even existed. + +# The Fix +The issue lied in the following chunk of code for `layouts/partials/headers.html`: +```html +
+
+ Home / + {{ range $name, $taxonomy := .Site.Sections }} + {{ if ne $name "post" }} + {{ $name }} / + {{ end }} + {{ end }} +
+``` + +For some reason it seemed that `.Site.Sections` would populate as `0` and `1`. Now, this may be an error of my part from lack of understanding of how Hugo works, but I have yet to make sense of the documentation as far as sections go. + + +In any case, I borrowed the code found in `layouts/partials/sidebar.html` to include the nav links I desired: +```html +
+
+ {{ $url := .Site.BaseURL }} + {{ range .Site.Params.navlinks }} + {{ .name }} / + {{ end }} +
+``` + +---- + +# But Wait, There's More! +After getting more comfortable with how themes are designed for Hugo, I found a slew of other problems with the ported **Tracks** theme: + +* Improper HTML for `/about/` and `/contact/` resulting in a sloppy looking, inconsistent site. +* Redundant `portfolio.html`: duplicated HTML code already used in `category.html` +* Completely unused: + * `layouts/_default/taxonomy.html` + * `layouts/_default/list.html` + * `
` in `layouts/partials/category.html` +* Missing: + * Pagination + * Syntax Highlighting + +At the this point in time I decided it was no longer worth my time in trying to re-work something I wasn't very familiar with, as my main objective was simply to get a portfolio website with blog functionality up and running. diff --git a/themes/tranquilpeak b/themes/tranquilpeak deleted file mode 160000 index 026df93..0000000 --- a/themes/tranquilpeak +++ /dev/null @@ -1 +0,0 @@ -Subproject commit 026df931e5bb33838960823d1f3a4ba72a47923a
