Hugo: Check layout lookup for taxonomyTerm

[bep]

The first one in this list looks odd:

WARN 2017/04/24 19:31:58 [en] Unable to locate layout for "taxonomyTerm": [taxonomy/.terms.html.html taxonomy/.terms.html _default/terms.html.html _default/terms.html indexes/indexes.html.html indexes/indexes.html theme/taxonomy/.terms.html.html theme/taxonomy/.terms.html theme/_default/terms.html.html theme/_default/terms.html theme/indexes/indexes.html.html theme/indexes/indexes.html]

Hi Bep, not sure if this would be any help to you:

I have installed v0.20.5 yesterday and started a new site (and new theme) to learn how to use Hugo. I got the same error as you (above) when running hugo --verbose.
Later I have added new posts to my site removed public/ directory and run hugo --verbose again. This would through slightly different error:

Started building sites ...
INFO 2017/04/27 11:02:20 found taxonomies: map[string]string{"tag":"tags", "category":"categories"}

and it never creates my posts .html files (as I believe it should). Instead it creates public/article/index.xml file with following content:

I’m very new to Hugo, so not completely sure if this is correct behaviour or not, but I thought this could be related to your error message. I’m following this tutorial and it seems like it’s not generating the files correctly: https://gohugo.io/tutorials/creating-a-new-theme/

In case this is related to v0.20.5 version, would you know which older version I could use meanwhile before this gets resolved?

Any help is appreciated! thanks!

I'm not sure where I picked up this, I guess it was one of the theme example sites. I guess this happens when people put empty values for the taxonomy terms definition, as a way to exclude those from build, and then this is normal behaviour. I cannot reproduce this in any normal setting.

Is it already clear what causes this? I have the same thing.

I receive the same error with an old site created with hugo 0.15 or similar, using the current hugo version. Theme is ghostwriter.

I also have the same problem with a theme I ported (hpstr-hugo). Would appreciate it if someone could tell me how to fix my theme. I haven't been keeping up with Hugo development so I assume some recent changes to Hugo has caused this bug.

any walk around for this ?

[jasonnerothin]

bumping into this myself.

i'm attempting to override a partial from the theme in my section's layout directoy, but that's just a guess...
