Hugo fails to build site if page has a link

[hiway]

Thank you for sharing your code.

I installed via pip3 , then uninstalled and installed development version via make after cloning the repo. Encountered the same issue with both.

Created two pages in the Obsidian vault:

index.md

This is a [[test]]

test.md

Only a test.

After running python3 -m obsidian_to_hugo ..., I see these two files created in the Hugo content folder:

index.md

This is a [test]({{< ref "test" >}})

test.md

Only a test.

When I run hugo, I get the following error:

hugo server -D --disableFastRender
Start building sites … 
hugo v0.104.3+extended darwin/arm64 BuildDate=unknown
ERROR 2022/10/09 02:14:41 [en] REF_NOT_FOUND: Ref "test": "/---/content/index.md:1:18": page not found
Error: Error building site: logged 1 error(s)

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong as I'm new to Obsidian, Hugo and this script.

I have tried "PaperMod" and "etch" themes, no difference.

Any help is appreciated :)

Hey @hiway

In Hugo index files are prefixed with a leading underscore:

• https://gohugo.io/content-management/organization/#index-pages-_indexmd
• https://stackoverflow.com/a/62642790/13765033

When you rename your obsidian/index.md into obsidian/_index.md your Hugo build should pass without any errors.

Thank you! I appreciate you taking the time to help a newbie :)

Closing the issue as it is resolved.
