Is it possible to use the profile.html ofhomepage.layout in the other menu?

like this menu, I would like to put my profile in the "about" menu, not the homepage, what should I do?

I have try to set the menu as:
[[main]]
name = "About"
pageRef= "partials/home/profile.html"
weight = 40

But it doesn't work, so what is the right way to do that?

I know it is a stupid question. if you know how to solve the problem, could you help me?

Thanks for the question. While it's not possible to link directly to a partial in Hugo, you can create your own layout for an about page that will include the profile. There's a couple of ways you could achieve this but you'll need to do something like the following:

1. Make an about page in your content folder: content/about/_index.md

---
title: About
---

2. In your layouts folder (which you may need to create), create a custom layout for the about page that includes the profile partial: layouts/about/list.html

{{ define "main" }}
  {{ partial "partials/home/profile.html" . }}
{{ end }}

3. Update your menu to pageRef = "about"
4. Rebuild the Hugo site
