Adding new content

[canadianeagle]

Hello again,

I'm trying to do things the right way (via shadowing and the like).
I want to add new content but I can't get my new content to show - I added the content folder in my shadowed folder
src\gatsby-theme-amaranth\content and even tried src\gatsby-theme-amaranth\gatsby-theme-advanced\content but nothing is working.

So my actual question:
Do I use the folder themes\advanced\content and add my content there? Is this the right way to do things without having to mess anything up in the future when I update?

Thanks again :)

Hey!

Adding content isn't related to shadowing. The base content is just a fallback for development purposes.

You just need to configure contentDir and assetDir as per configuration document here: https://github.com/Vagr9K/gatsby-advanced-starter/tree/master/themes/amaranth#configuration.

The easiest option would be to set contentDir as content and create a content folder (in the starter root) with MDX/MD posts inside.
