{{<columns>}} does not display images - it just renders the image tag
22:50 25 Jul 2025

I have the following in my Hugo site:

{{< columns >}}

The top-right corner of the home page shows your email address and can be used to access your profile.

<--->

![email-address](top-right.png)

{{< /columns >}}

![email-address](top-right.png)

The columns render with the text on the left and the literal tag on the right. Not an invalid image, not an alt tag, it just renders ![email-address](top-right.png) as text in the page. Here's the HTMl from my inspection:


The top-right corner of the home page shows your email address and can be used to access your profile.
![email-address](top-right.png)

The tag that I included outside of the shortcode renders HTML properly and displays the image properly:

email-address

How do I tell Hugo to render the image in the column?
