Change

  • Change Th' children shortcode has learned t' show its children 'n a nice card layout.

    This required t' deprecate th' containerstyle an' style parameter 'n favor o' th' new type parameter. Yer build will succeed as before but will give ye detailed warnings how t' migrate yer old sett'ns t' th' new fer each occurance.

    If ye haven’t set containerstyle or style no changes be necessary. If ye used

    • containerstyle=ul or style=li now use type=tree
    • style=h* now use type=list
    • any other containerstyle or style now use type=flat

    If ye want t' use th' new card layout, use type=card.

  • Change Th' externalLinkTarget config opt'n has changed its default from _blank t' _self caus'n external links by default t' be opened 'n th' same tab.

    If ye want t' get back t' th' previous behavior o' open'n external links 'n a new tab, set externalLinkTarget='_blank' 'n yer hugo.toml.
