Merry Fixmas: How to fix the Hugo error <!-- raw HTML omitted -->

Published: Dec 8, 2022

I recently updated some stackbit files on one of my Hugo sites and afterwards all hyperlinks added with HTML were commented out + made invisible on the live site. In View Source the links were commented out with this:

<!-- raw HTML omitted -->

In some cases, the wrapped text was invisible on the live site. In other cases, not.

Thanks to a Stackoverflow contributor, I got the answer and added this fix below to my config.toml file. Sharing this here in case someone out there’s searching for a solution too.
