    10  Hugo `0.45` is the **revival of ref, relref and GetPage**. [@vassudanagunta](https://github.com/vassudanagunta) and [@bep](https://github.com/bep) have done some great work improving the API and implementation for the helper functions used to **get one page**. Before this release, the API was a little bit clumsy and the result potentially ambiguous in some situations.
    11  
    12  Now you can simply do:
    13  
    14  ```go-html-template
    15  {{ with .Site.GetPage "/blog/my-post.md" }}{{ .Title }}{{ end }}
    16  ```
    17  
    18  Or to get a section page:
    19  
    20  
    21  ```go-html-template
    22  {{ with .Site.GetPage "/blog" }}{{ .Title }}{{ end }}
    23  ```
    24  
    25  We have also added a `.GetPage` method on `Page` and added support for page-relative linking. This means that the leading slash (`/`) now has a meaning. For `.Site.GetPage`, all lookups will start at the content root. But for lookups with a `Page` context, paths without a leading slash will be treated as relative to the page.
    26  
    27  This means that the following example will find the page in the current section:
    28  
    29  ```go-html-template
    30  {{</* ref "my-post.md" */>}}
    31  ```
    32  
    33  You can also use the `..` to refer to a page one level up etc.:
    34  
    35  ```go-html-template
    36  {{</* ref "../my-post.md" */>}}
    37  ```
    38  
    39  We have now also added language support to `ref` and `relref`, so you can link to a page in another language:
    40  
    41  ```go-html-template
    42  {{</* relref path="document.md" lang="jp" */>}}
    43  ```
    44  
    45  To link to a given Output Format of a document, you can use this syntax:
    46  
    47  ```go-html-template
    48  {{</* relref path="document.md" outputFormat="rss" */>}}
    49  ```
    50  
    51  To make working with these reflinks on bigger sites easier to work with, we have also improved the error logging, and added two new configuration settings:
    52  
    53  * refLinksErrorLevel: ERROR (default, will fail the build when a reflink cannot be resolved) or WARNING.
    54  * refLinksNotFoundURL: Set this to an URL placeholder used when no reference could be resolved.
    55  
    56  Visit the [Hugo Docs](https://gohugo.io/content-management/cross-references) for more information.
    57  
    58  We have also done some important improvements and fixes in **Hugo Pipes** in this release: SCSS source maps on Windows now works, we now support project-local `PostCSS` installation, and we have added `IncludePaths` to `SCSS` options, making it possible to include, say, a path below `node_modules` in the SASS/SCSS build.
    59  
    60  This release represents **31 contributions by 4 contributors** to the main Hugo code base.
    61  [@bep](https://github.com/bep) leads the Hugo development with a significant amount of contributions, but also a big shoutout to [@vassudanagunta](https://github.com/vassudanagunta), [@hairmare](https://github.com/hairmare), and [@garrmcnu](https://github.com/garrmcnu) for their ongoing contributions.
    62  And a big thanks to [@digitalcraftsman](https://github.com/digitalcraftsman) for his relentless work on keeping the themes site in pristine condition and to [@kaushalmodi](https://github.com/kaushalmodi) for his great work on the documentation site.
    63  
    64  Many have also been busy writing and fixing the documentation in [hugoDocs](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugoDocs), 
    65  which has received **10 contributions by 8 contributors**. A special thanks to [@kaushalmodi](https://github.com/kaushalmodi), [@Hanzei](https://github.com/Hanzei), [@KurtTrowbridge](https://github.com/KurtTrowbridge), and [@regisphilibert](https://github.com/regisphilibert) for their work on the documentation site.
    66  
    67  
    68  Hugo now has:
    69  
    70  * 27334+ [stars](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/stargazers)
    71  * 443+ [contributors](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/graphs/contributors)
    72  * 238+ [themes](http://themes.gohugo.io/)
    73  
    74  ## Notes
    75  * `.Site.GetPage` with more than 2 arguments will not work anymore. This means that `{{ .Site.GetPage "page" "blog" "my-post.md" }}` will fail. `{{ .Site.GetPage "page" "blog/my-post.md" }}` will work, but we recommend you use the simpler `{{ .Site.GetPage "/blog/my-post.md" }}`
    76  * Relative paths in `relref` or `ref` that finds its match not relative to the page itself will work, but we now print a warning saying that you should correct it to an absolute path. E.g. `{{</* ref "blog/my-post.md" */>}}` => `{{</* ref "/blog/my-post.md" */>}}`.
