Hugo is my favorite tool for publishing markdown to the internet, but sometimes I want to do something a little bit more advanced with my posts.
With this shortcode I can always just fall back to plain old HTML.
To use it add it to layouts/shortcodes/plainHtml.html.
{{/* Renders it's contents as plain, unescaped, HTML. */}}
{{.Inner}}
And the use it inside posts like this:
# Hello World
Content as usual.
{{< plainHtml >}}
<div class="fancy-thing">
<p>Do something special here</p>
</div>
{{< /plainHtml >}}
