Rocktopus is a re-work of my previous theme. The goal was to clean it up a bit and add in some of the newer Hugo features. This theme uses the Skeleton CSS framework
- Lightweight. All CSS and no javascript
- Choice of light or dark color scheme
- Configurable menu
- Supports tags
- Supports Hugo pagination
- Supports Hugo Google Analytics template
- Has an amazing name
The sample config file is pretty well documented and explains what setting does what but here are some key points:
- The
[menu]
section looks best with three entries (in my opinion). - The
blogHeader
param supports HTML. - The theme provides a content type of
contact
that will create a simple contact page for your based on the values you put in the config file. Just create a new file under yourcontent
and addtype="contact"
to the frontmatter, no need to put any actual content in it. - There are some sample images that come with the theme for the header section but you'll probably want to set your own, just put it into your
static/img
directory update the filename in your config.
