Description

Several ported posts use Quarto's column layout features — either .column-* CSS classes on divs or #| column: code cell options — which aren't currently supported by the Hugo site.

Research direction

Start by comparing the listed Quarto and Shiny post paths, especially the spotted advanced-layout post, to identify both .column-* classes and #| column: options in the rendered content. Trace the Hugo rendering and styling entry points that handle those posts; done means the affected pages display the intended column layouts for both forms.
