get hooks.server.ts to run on pre-rendered pages

[bobbymannino]

I have an app where users can login and like posts but when the user goes onto a page that is pre-rendered the hooks.server.ts doesn't run which means the user isn't logged in and shows them as logged out. is there a way to fix this by running hooks.server.ts on every page including pre rendered pages?

Prerendered pages compute the page contents (runnning load functions) at build time, so you have to fetch the user data client-side after the page is mounted.

If you want to fetch data before the page is mounted (load functions), you should not prerender the page.

More info here: https://kit.svelte.dev/docs/page-options#prerender-when-not-to-prerender

Not all pages are suitable for prerendering. Any content that is prerendered will be seen by all users. You can of course fetch personalized data in onMount in a prerendered page, but this may result in a poorer user experience since it will involve blank initial content or loading indicators.
