Bug with mixed case section/type to mixed case layout folders about hugo

[leahoswald]

Ah your right, this was a wrong observation either due to caching or changing path names. (It was late yesterday)

It would be helpful if you could share your project with us. I am unable to recreate the problem based on the description above.

And now, just to be sure, I changed the folder name from "artProject" to only "art" and it magically works. And I can reproduce it! If the folder name is only lowercase it works, if it contains an upper case it is ignored. Is there any naming scheme I couldn't find in the docs?

EDIT: Updated the original issue to reflect this issue.

With this content structure:

content/
└── TestDir/
    └── p1.md

	Value returned by v0.122.0	Value returned by v0.123.0
{{ .Section }}	TestDir	testdir
{{ .Type }}	TestDir	testdir

Which means you can't do this anymore:

layouts/
└── TestDir/
    └── single.html

I'm guessing that both Type and Section are now derived from the logical path (described here) instead of the physical path.

I'm not sure if this is one of the intentional breaking changes in v0.123.0. Regardless, change your layouts structure to:

layouts/
└── testdir/
    └── single.html

Sounds plausible that it is caused by the function because copying the folder from layouts to the templates layouts folder doesn't help. So it seems to be a global problem. If it is intended and only lowercase is allowed now we should add some documentation for it.

Oh and it doesn't help to just rename the layout folder to a lowercase version, we need to rename the content structure too.

Yes, it does, try it.

git clone --single-branch -b hugo-github-issue-12398 https://github.com/jmooring/hugo-testing hugo-github-issue-12398
cd hugo-github-issue-12398
hugo server

Then visit http://localhost:1313/testdir/p1/
