## Intro
|
|
|
|
- **We'll be using `yml/yaml` format for all examples down below, I recommend using `yml` over `toml` as it is easier to read.**
|
|
|
|
- You can find any [YML to TOML](https://www.google.com/search?q=yml+to+toml) converters if necessary.

## Override theme template
|
|
|
|
By Hugo's Lookup Order, you can override any part of a theme that you want. The following is a quick example.
|
|
|
|
Let's say you wish the `list` was different. All you have to do is copy the `list` template:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
your-site/themes/papermod/layouts/_defaults/list.html
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And paste it under your own `layouts` folder:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
your-site/layouts/_defaults/list.html
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then you're free to make any changes you want to the `list`.
|
|
When Hugo builds your site, your copy of `list.html` will be used instead of the theme's `list.html`.

## Bundling Custom css with theme's assets
|
|
|
|
- For adding custom css to be bundled inside one minimized css
|
|
|
|
Create folder in yout project directory as
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
.(site root)
|
|
├── config.yml
|
|
├── content/
|
|
├── theme/hugo-PaperMod/
|
|
└── assets/
|
|
└── css/
|
|
└── extended/ <---
|
|
├── custom_css1.css <---
|
|
└── any_name.css <---
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
All `css` files inside `assets/css/extended` will be bundled !
|
|
|
|
**Note**: blank.css is just the placeholder so that it doesn't break the theme when no files are present under `assets/css/extended`
|

## Custom Head / Footer
|
|
|
|
Custom css/js can be added by way mentioned below.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
.(site root)
|
|
├── config.yml
|
|
├── content/
|
|
├── theme/hugo-PaperMod/
|
|
└── layouts
|
|
├── partials
|
|
│ ├── comments.html
|
|
│ ├── extend_footer.html <---
|
|
│ └── extend_head.html <---
|
|
└── robots.txt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Create a html page in directory structure as shown above.
|
|
|
|
Contents of `extend_head.html` will be added to `head` of page.
|
|
|
|
and contents of `extend_footer.html` will be added to bottom of page.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Add menu to site
|
|
|
|
You can add menu entries which will appear in the header of every page.
|
|
|
|
To do so, add a `menu` section to your site's `config.yml`:
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
menu:
|
|
main:
|
|
- identifier: categories
|
|
name: categories
|
|
url: /categories/
|
|
weight: 10
|
|
- identifier: tags
|
|
name: tags
|
|
url: /tags/
|
|
weight: 20
|
|
- identifier: example
|
|
name: example.org
|
|
url: https://example.org
|
|
weight: 30
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`name` controls what will be displayed for the menu entry.
|
|
`url` sets the URL that the entry points to.
|
|
`weight` is used to control the positioning of entries.
|
|
|
|
For more information on menus, see the [Hugo wiki page](https://gohugo.io/content-management/menus/).
|

|
## Pin a Post
|
|
|
|
Post can be pinned/ displayed top on the list by adding a `weight=<num>` var to page-variables
|
|
|
|
example:
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
---
|
|
title: "My Important post"
|
|
date: 2020-09-15T11:30:03+00:00
|
|
weight: 1
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
---
|
|
title: "My 2nd Important post"
|
|
date: 2020-09-15T11:30:03+00:00
|
|
weight: 2
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
```

## Adding Custom Favicon(s)
|
|
|
|
We support the following paths under `/static` directory
|
|
and can be added accordingly.
|
|
|
|
- `favicon.ico`
|
|
- `favicon-16x16.png`
|
|
- `favicon-32x32.png`
|
|
- `apple-touch-icon.png`
|
|
- `safari-pinned-tab.svg`
|
|
|
|
1. Favicon(s) can be generated by [Favicon.io](https://favicon.io)
|
|
|
|
and can be simply put in `/static` folder.
|
|
|
|
2. Other way is to add favicon(s) NOT located in `/static` folder.
|
|
|
|
In site config add the following:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
params:
|
|
assets:
|
|
favicon: "<link / absolute url>"
|
|
favicon16x16: "<link / absolute url>"
|
|
favicon32x32: "<link / absolute url>"
|
|
apple_touch_icon: "<link / absolute url>"
|
|
safari_pinned_tab: "<link / absolute url>"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- `absolute url` means direct links to external resource: ex. https://web.site/someimage.png
|
|
|
|
example:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
params:
|
|
assets:
|
|
favicon: "/favicon.ico"
|
|
favicon16x16: "/favicon-16x16.png"
|
|
favicon32x32: "/favicon-32x32.png"
|
|
apple_touch_icon: "/apple-touch-icon.png"
|
|
safari_pinned_tab: "/safari-pinned-tab.svg"
|
|
```
|

## Centering image in markdown
|
|
|
|
Add `#center` after image to center align an image
|
|
|
|
```md
|
|
![name](path/to/image.png#center)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**When using [`figure`](https://gohugo.io/content-management/shortcodes/) shortcode**
|
|
|
|
use `align=center` to center image with captions
|
|
|
|
ex.
|
|
|
|
```md
|
|
{{</* figure align=center src="image.jpg" */>}}
|
|
```
|
|
|

## Using Hugo's Syntax highlighter "chroma"
|
|
|
|
Set hugo's markdown styling in site `config.yml`
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
markup:
|
|
highlight:
|
|
noClasses: false
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`noClasses` has to be `false` to make highlight color follows the theme.

## Search not working ?
|
|
|
|
If you are using a CDN to server assets from a different domain, search would break
|
|
|
|
Why? Take a look at [fastsearch.js#L35](https://github.com/adityatelange/hugo-PaperMod/blob/fb4988cfb6d0d6e4e489f17d89f0fa618def3396/assets/js/fastsearch.js#L35).
|
|
|
|
We fetch the `index.json` (where the search function looks for the keywords typed) one level up of the website `search.min.js` is hosted on.
|
|
|
|
We have used this insted of assigning `baseURL` so as to work with multilingual websites ex. `example.com/fr/` and websites being placed under a subdirectory ex. `example.com/blog/`.
|
|
|
|
To fix for _single_ language websites hosting assets from CDN, this you may [override](#override-theme-template) [fastsearch.js#L35](https://github.com/adityatelange/hugo-PaperMod/blob/fb4988cfb6d0d6e4e489f17d89f0fa618def3396/assets/js/fastsearch.js#L35) and placing appropriate URL as in
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
xhr.open("GET", "https://example.com/index.json");
|
|
```
|
