5.4.0 (2022-11-01)

Change

  • Change With the proper settings in your hugo.toml your page is now servable from the local file system using file:// URLs.

    Please note that the searchbox will only work for this if you reconfigure your outputformat for the home page in your hugo.toml from json to search. The now deprecated json outputformat still works as before, so there is no need to reconfigure your installation if it is only served from http:// or https://.

  • Change The button shortcode has a new parameter target to set the destination frame/window for the URL to open. If not given, it defaults to a new window/tab for external URLs or is not set at all for internal URLs. Previously even internal URLs where opened in a new window/tab.

New

  • New The math shortcode and mermaid shortcode now also support the align parameter if Markdown codefences are used.

  • New Support for languages that are written right to left (like Arabic). This is only implemented for the content area but not the navigation sidebar. This feature is not available in Internet Explorer 11.

  • New Translation into Finnish (Suomi).
