5.24.0: _default/list.html throws error

[cagix]

After updating from 5.23.2 to 5.24.0, _default/list.html stopped working:

ERROR render of "section" failed: "/usr/local/share/pandoc/hugo/hugo-theme-relearn/layouts/_default/list.html:1:4": execute of template failed: template: _default/list.html:1:4: executing "_default/list.html" at <partial "_main.hugo" .>: error calling partial: "/usr/local/share/pandoc/hugo/hugo-theme-relearn/layouts/partials/_main.hugo:3:4": execute of template failed: template: partials/_main.hugo:3:4: executing "partials/_main.hugo" at <partial "output-partial.hugo" (dict "base" "header" "page" .

After a short investigation: My script was using the option --panicOnWarning, after relaxing this everything goes back to normal. It seems to be about deprecating menutitle. (Strangely, other warnings about missing links did not lead to an error when using --panicOnWarning.)

However, the documentation (https://mcshelby.github.io/hugo-theme-relearn/cont/frontmatter/index.html#using-a-custom-title-for-menu-entries) seems to recommend still menuTitle? Also in the release notes there is no mention of deprecating menuTitle?

The menuTitle frontmatter will be removed in #714. The warning is already there to inform the user early as the alternative LinkTitle is already supported.

But you are correct, the docs still mention this, which is a bit inconsistent. I am still thinking about, which way to go, either remove the warning or rewrite the docs...

[cagix]

I'd prefer the deprecation warning, but this should be reflected somehow in the docs :)

[McShelby]

I've updated the docs but will not make a new release for it.

Anyways, thanks for reporting. 5.24.0 was far to long in development hell, so I got a bit lost.

@McShelby Thanks for your amazing work! Very much appreciated :)
