Parameter post_thumbnail_default not working

| `blog.post_thumbnail_default` | string | `images/thumbnail.png` | The default thumbnail image relative to `assets` folder. |

When post_thumbnail_default: images/thumbnail.jpg or post_thumbnail_default: /images/thumbnail.jpg is set in params.yaml, in both cases the image is found at assets/images/ directory but it is not displayed, showing the console warning:

WARN  image not found: /mysite/images/thumbnail.jpg?height=360px

If the image is not found, then there are no errors nor warnings. But image is not displayed neither ways.

How can I make it work? Maybe remove height=360px parameter from somewhere?

Please tell me if you need more information for debugging.

Hi, what is the full path of the parameter? It should be hb.blog.post_thumbnail_default. You can also check it with the real working example.

site/config/_default/params.yml

post_thumbnail_default: /images/thumbnail.jpg

Hi, I've used this example as a reference with the same image from repository. I've tried tried several ways, but I couldn't find out why the image wasn't displayed (which warning message only appears when it is found).

Here is an excerpt from my params.yaml:

hb:
  blog:
    full_width: false # when true, the blog layout takes full width.
    sidebar:
      profile:
        # title: Profile title other than site title.
        # description: Profile description other than site description.
        # socials:
      posts:
        recent_count: 5 # the number of recent posts.
        featured_count: 5 # the number of featured posts.
        # style: pills
      taxonomies:
        count: true # whether to show the number of posts associated to the item.
        limit: 10 # the maximum number of the item.
        style: underline
    paginate: 12 # paginate.
    post_thumbnail_placeholder: "" # the text of thumbnail placeholder, default to site title.
    post_thumbnail: true # whether to show the thumbnails.
    post_thumbnail_default: images/thumbnail.jpg
    post_date_format: :date_long # see https://gohugo.io/functions/dateformat/#datetime-formatting-layouts.
    home: # homepage settings.
      # taxonomies: false # remove the taxonomies stat from the homepage.
      featured_posts: 5 # the number of the featured posts.
      main_sections: # leave it empty to include all regular pages.
        - docs
        - blog
        - news

I think it's not the parameter related, I guess you're using /mysite/images/thumbnail.jpg?height=360px (which doesn't exists) in the markdown content.

[gavlinski]

I don't know where height=360px came from, I didn't provide anything like that at any time during the configuration.

I even renamed the thumbnail.jpg file to thumbnail.jpg?height=360px to see what would happen: the warning disappears, but the image is still not displayed.

Could it have something to do with the pt-br language?

[razonyang]

Do you have a public repo for reproducing? I couldn't reeproduce it, or you can invite me to your private repo, and remove me later.

No.

[razonyang]

One more clue is that you can search your content with the mysite/images/thumbnail.jpg keyword, there isn't mysite on the params.yaml.

[gavlinski]

Thanks for your help! The problem is actually in the baseURL parameter:

baseURL: https://group.gitpages.corp # works fine
baseURL: https://group.gitpages.corp/mysite # does not work

So removing mysite from baseURL makes the problem disappear, at least in the development environment.

[gavlinski]

If this is a bug, it might help you to know that this other section that uses the same directory to read a image file works normally with any baseURL value:

seo:
  favicons: # see https://hugomods.com/en/docs/seo/#favicons-module
    icon: images/logo.png # use logo as favicon.

Seems a bug, will take a close look into it later.

[gavlinski]

Thanks so much! Confirmed it's now working with github.com/hbstack/blog@v0.22.2.

[razonyang]

My pleasure.
