This is the theme I use for (some of) my Hugo websites. I created it because I wanted to have a minimalist, yet very powerful theme. Thanks for checking it out.
- Create a folder with the name of your site, create a subfolder named 'themes'.
- Navigate to your themes folder and copy this theme and the themes it is based on as modules with the following commands:
- git clone https://github.com/lgaida/mediumish-gohugo-theme
- git clone https://github.com/JeremyLikness/jeremylikness-blog
- git clone https://github.com/MarkRosemaker/mark-rosemaker-hugo-theme
- Move the contents from themes/mark-rosemaker-hugo-theme/exampleSite to your site folder.
- Put your logo.png in "content/uploads/".
- Upload your logo to https://www.favicon-generator.org/, select "Generate icons for Web, Android, Microsoft, and iOS (iPhone and iPad) Apps", create favicon, download and copy all the file in the zip into "/static/img/favicons/".
- Customize the config files etc. to your needs.
Instead of cloning the themes into your project, clone all themes into a seperate folder called "hugo-themes". Then make symbolic links so that all in your files in "hugo-themes" are exactly the same as the theme folders of all your sites.
- mklink /j "%UserProfile%\OneDrive\Documents\GitHub\my-site\themes" "%UserProfile%\OneDrive\Documents\GitHub\hugo-themes"
- mklink /j "%UserProfile%\OneDrive\Documents\GitHub\another-site\themes" "%UserProfile%\OneDrive\Documents\GitHub\hugo-themes"
- mklink /j "%UserProfile%\OneDrive\Documents\GitHub\third-site\themes" "%UserProfile%\OneDrive\Documents\GitHub\hugo-themes"
BUT I've recently learned that this is the way to do it. I will update this guide to that effect.
