error loading hugo-hero-theme about hugo-hero-theme HOT 7 CLOSED

I had to add a config called theme = <theme directory name>. Worked after adding this.

baseURL = ""
languageCode = "en-us"
title = "Hugo Hero"
themesDir = "themes"
theme = "hugohero"

After cloning hugo-hero-theme, and configuring config.toml, running 'hugo' yields the following error:

Error: Error building site: failed to render pages: render of "home" failed: "/Users/allengordon/development/workspace/hugo/hero/themes/hugo-hero-theme/layouts/index.html:23:30": execute of template failed: template: index.html:23:30: executing "main" at <$headless.Resources....>: can't evaluate field Resources in type *hugolib.Page

Hmm it could be any number of things with how you have installed. Did you clone the theme into an existing hugo project? Are you sure you updated the config.toml correctly? Did you copy the exampleSite folder to the hugo project root?

from hugo-hero-theme.

I did all of that. I've had no trouble with other themes. I'll check it again, however, to make sure.

I have the same problem. Is it possible that this is a problem with the hugo-version? (I have 0.54-DEV/extended). hugo serve ... in the theme-directory doesn't work as well

from hugo-hero-theme.

make sure you have hugo extended installed. run hugo version to check.

If you are running hugo serve from the theme directory it wont work. You need to run this command from the projects root directory (it has the README.md) in it.

I have updated the documentation to (hopefully) make installing and editing the themes config.toml clearer. I have also added theme = "hugo-hero-theme" to the example config.toml.
