Anyway to set a different url when click on the website's name? about etch

[LukasJoswiak]

Hi, did you figure out a way to do this? It seems useful. Based on https://gohugo.io/content-management/multilingual/#configure-multilingual-multihost, it seems the baseURL can be set per language. Without having personally tested it, it seems like a plausible solution.

Hey, yeah I also found that documentation, but if I understood it correctly I need two domains for that to work, is that right? I wanted a simple way to make it point to baseURL/pt-br like it's with menus...

[LukasJoswiak]

I just tried this out, it seems to work ok to set baseURL to have the same domain but different paths.

[languages]
  [languages.en]
    baseURL = "https://example.com"
    title = "Website Name"
    weight = 1
  [languages.fr]
    baseURL = "https://example.com/fr/"
    title = "Website Name in French"
    weight = 2

Although there was a problem with the CSS not loading on the French version when running in development mode (hugo server). Development mode is broken for the French language site because it runs each language on a separate port, but uses the absolute /css/styles.min.css path for all sites. There shouldn't be any problems with a site generated through hugo, but I'll have to look into fixing this development path issue.

yeah I had the same problem with the css, I tried using it on production and did not work as well, is there anyway to fix that?

[LukasJoswiak]

One way to fix this is to change $css.RelPermalink to $css.Permalink at

etch/layouts/partials/head.html

Line 28 in 1969ea2

{{ printf `<link rel="stylesheet" href="%s">` $css.RelPermalink | safeHTML }}

. I don't think this is the "correct" fix for this problem, but it should work fine as a quick way to get things working.

How can I ship this change to the theme in my website?

[LukasJoswiak]

From the directory containing your site files, edit the file at themes/etch/layouts/partials/head.html to make the change above, then rebuild your site with hugo.

[FHEK789]

Sure but then I'm editing your repo because it's added as a git submodule

[LukasJoswiak]

You are only editing your copy of this repo.

[FHEK789]

Yes, I was asking if there's some way to make that work, like is there a way to make a copy of your theme and use it instead of the gitsubmodule?

[LukasJoswiak]

You can fork this repo and then use the fork as your submodule https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/working-with-forks/about-forks.
