Can't change the home page image

[gmdias727]

Is it because it only allows .png images?
I've made the same path as the default example.

Mine:

[params]
ava = "./img/profile.png" <- my image wasn't .png at first, I've converted from .jpeg to .png

Default:

[params]
ava = "/img/cat.png"

the path must without dot & image location must same bro also you can change the parameter, you can use any all images type that support by most browser. webp 👍 that small & almost every modern browser support

I'm sure that i'm doing it correctly, but for some reason it doesn't render the image.

I've made some changes:

• converted the image to .webp

made the image input the same as when you clone de submodule

the config.toml now looks like this:

[params]
ava = "/static/img/pwebp.webp"

and still doesn't render the image :(

Update: I've tried looking up to the network tab in the dev tools and the image path is not found (404) and just doesn't make sense for me because i'm doing it right, the default cat image renders perfectly and returns OK (200), but when I input my image it just brokes.

that happen because wrong dir struct of hugo bro , the dir struct must be something like this

hugo-cat/
├── archetypes/
│   └── default.md
├── assets/
├── content/
├── data/
├── layouts/
├── public/
├── static/
└── hugo.toml

or for easy way you can moving all file in examplesite folder into hugo-cat folder & then delete the empity examplesite folder

hugo 0.113.0^ now config.toml = hugo.toml

i hope that help bro
