Internal templates are not available

[sophiabrandt]

I was thinking about implementing Twitter Card metatags and og:image (OpenGraph) metatags for better sharability on social media.

In layouts/partials/head.html there are references to several internal templates:

{{ template "_internal/opengraph.html" . -}}
{{ template "_internal/twitter_cards.html" . }}
{{ template "_internal/schema.html" . }}

This implies that the metatags should be implemented in those templates.

However, I cannot find them in the theme. Are they not available to the public?

In any case, thank you for the work on the theme.

Hello @sophiabrandt,

the templates that you mentioned are available trough Hugo and they will be generated when creating the website with hugo command. The only thing I need to do as a theme creator is to load them in via{{ template "..." . }}.

If you want to know more about how to use these templates take a look at the Hugo documentation.

I hope this will help. 👍

If you've more questing regarding this topic, feel free to ask.

Just one more info regarding the images = ['...'] front matter for the content.

If you want to use images make sure the first one in the list is the one that should also be displayed on the post page.

Huh. 😆 Thanks for clearing that up.
It did not occur to me to check the Hugo documentation, sorry. 😅
