Why is quarto website rendering html snippet fine in margin on main page but only the filename on post pages?

[DanOlner]

Description

Example of the issue is live on the front page this quarto website. I've got a 'subscribe' HTML snippet that's rendering fine on the front and about page there, as you can see. Following instructions from the blog page on adding a widget from the quarto help file for making a blog, I've got this _quarto.yml file (github file reference) that includes "margin-header: subscribe.html".

However, on all post pages e.g. on my site here, the html doesn't render and instead just the plain text "subscribe.html" ends up in the right margin.

I don't mind if I lose that plain text, though would prefer the subscribe HTML rendered throughout. What am I doing wrong, any thoughts? Thank you...

Instead of your whole project could you share something smaller such as something based on quarto create project blog?

Quarto R package 1.4.4.

The R package is not Quarto CLI. It's only a wrapper to the real tool.
Could you share the Quarto CLI version?

I cannot reproduce any issue with a simple project.

quarto create project blog

Using either:

website:
  title: "13252"
  margin-header: margin-header.md

or

website:
  title: "13252"
  margin-header: "This is a **margin header**!"

Both text/file leads to the correct display on all pages.

I also don't see any issues on your site, you apparently switched from 1.5 to 1.6 but that's still not the current stable version of Quarto CLI.
Current stable version is 1.7.33.

Profuse apologies - updating R and RStudio fixed it (RStudio is packaged with a version of quarto, I don't directly control that if using it, I don't think). Should I leave this thread or just delete? Thank you for your help / sorry again.

We don't delete anything. It's fine to keep it.
