I have configured the Hugo site to serve media assets (images, videos) from an external host. To enable this, I have:

• Defined a base URL for file server in my hugo.toml:

  filesBase = "https://files.web-log.uuard.com"

• Created custom shortcodes (gallery, video, image) that:

  • Accept a relative path (e.g. "videos/fells-point-path.webm")
  • Resolve the full asset URL using the filesBase parameter
  • Use the full URL in (e.g. <video>, <img>) HTML elements
