Installation

$ git clone https://github.com/olOwOlo/hugo-theme-even themes/even

Important: Take a look inside the exampleSite folder of this theme. You'll find a file called config.toml. To use it, copy the config.toml in the root folder of your Hugo site. Feel free to change it.

Important: This theme uses Hugo Pipes. Modifying contents in assets requires the extended version to be installed.

NOTE: For this theme, you should use post instead of posts, namely hugo new post/some-content.md.

Language Support

Translations are collected from the themes/even/i18n/ folder (built into the theme), as well as translations present in i18n/ at the root of your project. The translations will be merged and take precedence over what is in the theme folder.

To use the translations, just set a correct value for defaultContentLanguage.

defaultContentLanguage = "en"  # en / zh-cn / other...

Can also support any other languages as well. For example, to support german, create a file /i18n/de.yaml in the root folder of your Hugo site. For reference template you can see the en.yaml file.

P.S. In multilingual mode, the language which currently being used to render the website will be used.

Language selector

It is possible to enable language selector for multilingual site. It will be displayed in the header or in the slide menu.

To enable it, set showLanguageSelector parameter to true.

showLanguageSelector = true

Favicon

In order to customize the favicon you need to place all the following files in the static folder at the root of your site, which will overwrite those files in the themes/even/static/ folder.
