This document shows you what's new in the latest release. For a detailed list of changes, see the [history page]({{%relref "basics/history" %}}).
Breaking: A change that requires action by you after upgrading to assure the site is still functional.
Change: A change in default behavior. This may requires action by you / may or may not be revertable by configuration.
New: Marks new behavior you might find interesting or comes configurable.
3.0.0
-
Breaking: We made changes to the menu footer. If you have your
menu-footer.html
partial overridden, you may have to provide additional styling in your partial. For a reference take a look into themenu-footer.html
partial that is coming with the exampleSite.This change was made to allow your own menu footer to be placed right after the so called prefooter that comes with the theme (containing the language switch and Clear history functionality).
-
New: You can now set multiple color variants. In this case, the first variant is the default, choosen on first view and a theme selector will be shown in the menu footer. See the [documentation]({{%relref "basics/customization/#multiple-variants" %}}) for configuration.
2.9.0
-
Breaking: This release removes the themes implementation of
ref
/relref
in favor for Hugos standard implementation. This is because of inconsistencies with the themes implementation. In advantage, your project becomes standard complient and exchanging this theme in your project to some other theme will be effortless.In a standard complient form you must not link to the
*.md
file but to its logical name. You'll see, referencing other pages becomes much easier. All three types result in the same reference:Type Non-Standard Standard Branch bundle basics/configuration/_index.md
basics/configuration
Leaf bundle basics/configuration/index.md
basics/configuration
Page basics/configuration.md
basics/configuration
If you've linked from a page of one language to a page of another language, conversion is a bit more difficult but Hugo got you covered as well.
Also, the old themes implementation allowed refs to non-existing content. This will cause Hugos implementation to show the error below and abort the generation. If your project relies on this old behavior, you can reconfigure the error handling of Hugos implementation.
In the best case your usage of the old implementation is already standard complient and you don't need to change anything. You'll notice this very easily once you've started
hugo server
after an upgrade and no errors are written to the console.You may see errors on the console after the update in the form:
ERROR 2021/11/19 22:29:10 [en] REF_NOT_FOUND: Ref "basics/configuration/_index.md": "hugo-theme-relearn\exampleSite\content\_index.en.md:19:22": page not found
In this case, you must apply one of two options:
-
Copy the old implementation files
theme/hugo-theme-relearn/layouts/shortcode/ref.html
andtheme/hugo-theme-relearn/layouts/shortcode/relref.html
to your own projectslayouts/shortcode/ref.html
andlayouts/shortcode/relref.html
respectively. This is not recommended as your project will still rely on non-standard behavior afterwards. -
Start up a text editor with regular expression support for search and replace. Apply the following conversions in the given order on all
*.md
files. This is the recommended choice.
Type Search Replace by Branch bundle (ref\s+"[^"]*)/_index\.md"
$1"
Leaf bundle (ref\s+"[^"]*)/index\.md"
$1"
Page (ref\s+"[^"]*)\.md"
$1"

2.8.0
-
Change: Although never officially documented, this release removes the font
Novacento
/Novecento
from the release. If you use it in an overwritten CSS please replace it withWork Sans
. This change was necessary as Novacento did not provide all Latin special characters and lead to mixed styled character text eg. for czech. -
New: The theme now supports favicons served from
static/images/
named asfavicon
orlogo
in SVG, PNG or ICO format [out of the box]({{% relref "basics/customization/#change-the-favicon" %}}). An overridden partiallayouts/partials/favicon.html
may not be necessary anymore in most cases. -
New: You can hide the table of contents menu for the whole site by setting the
disableToc
option in yourconfig.toml
. For an example see [the example configuration]({{%relref "basics/configuration/#global-site-parameters" %}}).

2.4.0
-
Change: Creation of customized stylesheets was simplified down to only contain the CSS variables.

The [documentation]({{%relref "basics/customization/#mine-variant" %}}) was adjusted accordingly.

-
Change: In the predefined stylesheets there was a typo and
--MENU-HOME-LINK-HOVERED-color
must be changed to--MENU-HOME-LINK-HOVER-color
. -
Change:
