Alan Pope: Full text content in Hugo
tl;dr I’ve enabled full content text rather than summaries in the RSS feed for this blog. The irony that I am then summarising the entire post in one line here at the top, is not lost on me.
History
I’ve used various tools for my blog over the years. Initially in the late 1990’s it was hand-crafted HTML and some FrontPage extensions. Later I used Polarblog through the mid 2000’s then dropped that in 2006 for Drupal and subsequently WordPress.
Most recently I tried Nikola before “finally” settling on Hugo. Originally my blog was hosted on some free webspace I got from my ISP. Later I self-hosted at home on a Linux server in my garage. Eventually I moved it onto a VPS form Bitfolk.
Most of the “modern” (HAH!) blogging platforms have had the ability to present content via RSS (Really Simple Syndication). I used to avidly view news in an RSS reader, but like many others, these have fallen out of favour.
