Page bundles are a convenient way to keep images alongside the content that references them. Place media files in the same directory as the post’s index.md:

content/posts/my-post/
├── index.md
└── screenshot.png

Referencing images

Reference the image in Markdown with a relative path:

Selfie of a woman with buzz cut black hair and sunglasses on a high wooden walkway in a forest

Hugo resolves bundle resources automatically, so images stay organized and portable as your site grows.

Listing cards only show a cover when you explicitly provide one — inline content images are not used automatically.

featuredImage = 'featured.jpg'   # path or bundle filename
showImage = false                 # hide cover for this post

Or add a featured.jpg (or featured.png, etc.) to the page bundle.
