This should work out of the box, and I cannot reproduce with the
following steps.
nikola init -q n
cd n
vim conf.py
# change POSTS, PAGES, INDEX_PATH
nikola new_post -t 'sample post'
vim pages/index.rst
# paste your content verbatim
nikola build
vim pages/index.rst
# add some text
nikola build
The last `nikola build` shows this build log:
Scanning posts........done!
. render_sources:output/index.rst
. render_posts:timeline_changes
. render_posts:cache/pages/index.html
. render_pages:output/index.html
. sitemap:output/sitemap.xml
If this does not work for you, it might be a bug. What versions of
Python and Nikola are you using, and on what OS?
