From ee81931a4194721d03d850516ebd191f5ef9dabc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: i-give-up Date: Wed, 4 Oct 2017 22:36:03 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] Remove delimiters in YAML and TOML config examples The use of `---` and `...` delimiters in the YAML examples seem to suggest that those delimiters are necessary in a .yaml/.yml file when in fact they are optional. Also, it seems to be common practice to *not* use `---` and `...` in .yaml/.yml files. Similarly, it's less common to use `+++` in .toml files. The examples on TOML's Github repo don't use it, and Hugo-generated .toml files don't use it either. This commit removes the delimiters mentioned above to conform with the more common styles. Additionally this modifies the example for shortcut to find configuration option - add `cd` to make it clear that user has to change to the hugo site's directory first - separate the command and the output of the command --- content/getting-started/configuration.md | 19 +++++++++---------- 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) diff --git a/content/getting-started/configuration.md b/content/getting-started/configuration.md index dea4bbb484..1fe58e84a3 100644 --- a/content/getting-started/configuration.md +++ b/content/getting-started/configuration.md @@ -34,10 +34,9 @@ In your `config` file, you can direct Hugo as to how you want your website rende ## YAML Configuration -The following is a typical example of a YAML configuration file.
