Hi @somratpro

Thank you for your response.

How do I escape the quotation marks (")? Otherwise when the .yml file is parsed by Hugo it will interpret the quotation mark as part of the yaml structure and mess up the file:

content : " Some content <a href="https://examplesite.com" target="_blank">link</a> more content"

[somratpro]

you can use single 'quote'

Yes, that worked, I used a single quote for the yaml content delimiter.

Thank you :)

I'm adding this as a follow-up in case this question ever comes up again. Escaping single quotes has the disadvantage that any use of single quotes then becomes a problem (example, apostrophes). The way to make the above work with double quotes is to escape the double quotes with a back-slash (like so: \"). Then the content section looks something like this:

content : " Some content <a href=\"https://examplesite.com\" target=\"_blank\">link</a> more content"
