bug: Gitlab.com / Hugo default theme is broken

[JonRiv]

Hey there,

it would appear a recent change in the Hugo/Ananke Gitlab pages theme breaks the Gitlab-ci pipeline. This occurs on existing and new Hugo/Ananke gitlab pages projects.

I believe this to be critical as Ananke is the default theme for the Gitlab pages Hugo builder.

Expected Behavior

Gitlab pages pipeline builds normally.

While updating a Gitlab pages blog it wouldn't build anymore. Tested with fresh project and it wouldn't build either.

Current Behavior

$ hugo
ERROR deprecated: site config key paginate was deprecated in Hugo v0.128.0 and will be removed in Hugo 0.141.0. Use pagination.pagerSize instead.
Start building sites … 
hugo v0.140.2+extended linux/amd64 BuildDate=unknown
ERROR deprecated: resources.ToCSS was deprecated in Hugo v0.128.0 and will be removed in Hugo 0.141.0. Use css.Sass instead.
ERROR deprecated: .Site.Social was deprecated in Hugo v0.124.0 and will be removed in Hugo 0.141.0. Implement taxonomy 'social' or use .Site.Params.Social instead.
ERROR render of "/path/to/article.md" failed: "/tmp/hugo_cache/modules/filecache/modules/pkg/mod/github.com/the!new!dynamic/gohugo-theme-ananke@v0.0.0-20230203204610-a1a99cf12681/layouts/_default/single.html:54:17": execute of template failed: template: _default/single.html:54:17: executing "main" at <.Site.DisqusShortname>: can't evaluate field DisqusShortname in type page.Site

Possible Solution

I guess the theme should be updated to support newer versions of Hugo. Note : while I tried to downgrade the Gitlab pages hugo version, I didn't manage to produce a working build.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a new Gitlab Pages with the Hugo/Ananke template.
2. Try to build the new project.
3. Build fails.

The bigger picture (we need context)

Hugo Config

$ hugo config --format toml

How do you add Ananke to your theme? The error messages point to an old version used. It looks like you add it as module. In that case you need to add github.com/theNewDynamic/gohugo-theme-ananke/v2 (with /v2 at the end).

[JonRiv]

Hello, adding it as V2 doesn't change the error messages. It would seem Hugo is looking for another version :

"/tmp/hugo_cache/modules/filecache/modules/pkg/mod/github.com/the!new!dynamic/gohugo-theme-ananke@v0.0.0-20230203204610-a1a99cf12681/layouts/_default/single.html:54:17": execute of template failed: template: _default/single.html:54:17: executing "main" at <.Site.DisqusShortname>: can't evaluate field DisqusShortname in type page.Site

any idea about this version ?

gohugo-theme-ananke@v0.0.0-20230203204610-a1a99cf12681

[JonRiv]

Thank you, it did succeded by updating both config.toml and gitlab-ci.yml
