Tags broken after Upgrading to Hugo v0.147.1

[unnsse]

First and foremost, big thanks and much gratitude for making this awesome theme! 👍 😉

Been enjoying it on my website https://unnsse.io

Homebrew on my macOS upgraded all of its packages resulting in Hugo being upgraded to version v0.147.1.

Now, my tags are broken...

If I go to the most recent Article on my website and click on the Java tag:

---

It redirects and renders into XML:

---

If I click on the Tags menu item from the Navigation menu toolbar:

It redirects to this but Tags are not clickable:

---

If I go through localhost and click on the Java tag, it shows this:

However from the middle article - the Scala one, if I click on the Scala tag, from localhost:

From my website the same link is rendering in XML:

Am really new to static site generators like Hugo and would greatly appreciate if I someone could help me.

The public GitHub repository for my website (containing Hugo and iFixIt):

Update FixIt to v0.3.20

[unnsse]

@Lruihao - Thanks for the quick response!

Unzipped that into this folder (and replaced the previous FixIt folder):

mywebsite/themes

On localhost, this does fix it because the tags are clickable via the Home page (inside each individual article) but the Tags section from the Navigaiton menu toolbar just says 13 and isn't clickable/interactive...

However, how come when I create a branch v0.3.20 and deploy via GitHub Actions, the build breaks?

https://github.com/unnsse/unnsse.io/actions/workflows/hugo.yaml

  hugo \

Also, even though the Tags seem fixed (other than not appearing in the Tags page from the Navigation menu --> Tags) everything started up fine on localhost but its still logging WARN FixIt v0.3.8 instead of v3.2.0:

Is there a way to add it as a module via the Hugo command? Is simply unzipping the release into the themes directory the wrong way? Evidently, I am not doing this correctly...

This is the failing action:

https://github.com/unnsse/unnsse.io/actions/runs/14850468090/job/41692968845

Would appreciate some feedback, thanks!

Before add theme as a Hugo module, you should remove layouts and themes/FixIt directories.

Then, refer to the documentation and initialize it as a Hugo module.

For example, this is a quick-start template base on Hugo Modules.

Thanks @Lruihao,

So, here are the steps I took from the top-level directory of my project (unnsse.io) after doing a fresh git clone of my main branch:

rm -rf layouts
rm -rf themes/Fixit
hugo mod init github.com/hugo-fixit/FixIt
Error: failed to create config: unknown output format "archives" for kind "home"

Then tried updating it manually via:

hugo mod get -u github.com/hugo-fixit/FixIt
Error: failed to load modules: module "FixIt" not found in "/Users/unnsse/Projects/Hugo/unnsse.io/themes/FixIt"; either add it as a Hugo Module or store it in "/Users/unnsse/Projects/Hugo/unnsse.io/themes".: module does not exist

Sorry, I am not a website guy 😢, can anyone please help?

[Lruihao]

hugo mod init github.com/unnsse/unnsse.io and you don’t need to configure theme = "FixIt" in hugo.toml.

Complete steps:

@Lruihao - Thank you very much for this!

Locally here's the correct version:

And I deployed my branch upgrade_to_v0.3.20 (using GitHub Actions) so what's on https://unnsse.io is my branch and not mymain branch.

Yes, tags are working now 👍 😉

New issues arose and I fixed some of them 💪 but will write a new set of threads for the few minor ones I can't seem to get working.

Thanks for the quick responses and feel free to close this thread!
