Quick Start

From the root of your Hugo site, clone the theme into themes/Susan by running:

# Clone theme into the themes/Susan directory
$ git clone https://github.com/seuite/susan-hugo-theme.git themes/Susan

Usage

Configuration

Please see the sample config.toml. The theme is built on Hugo v0.46.

If you use this as a theme of your project website (not the root directory),make sure not to use a forward slash / in the beginning of a PATH in your config.toml, img in your post head and url in your data direcotory, because Hugo will turn it into a relative URL and the absURL function will have no effect.

Carousel Picture

Set two params in config.toml, slidesDirPath and slidesDirPathURL.

slidesDirPath sets the directory path for hugo server to search. slidesDirPathURL sets the rel url for the images.

Here are simple examples for quick start.

# if you want to use images in the theme (defult in the theme)
slidesDirPath    = "themes/Susan/static/img/header-slides"  
slidesDirPathURL = "img/header-slides"

# if you want to use images in static/img/header-slides
slidesDirPath  = "static/img/header-slides"  
slidesDirPathURL = "img/header-slides"

Post Intro Picture

List the image path in the YAML head of the post. For example:

---
date: "2018-08-13T00:14:19+08:00"
publishdate: "2018-08-13+08:00"
lastmod: "2018-08-13+08:00"
draft: false
title: "This is an example"
tags: ["css", "blog"]
series: ["Example"]
categories: ["Sci"]
img: "images/blog/2018-08/test5.jpg"
toc: true
summary: "This is an example of adding an intro picture to the post. "
---

Post Summary

There are three ways to add summary to each post.

  • Hugo-defined Summary Split

    By default, Hugo automatically takes the first 70 words of your content as its summary and stores it into the .Summary page variable for use. It is much easier with no additional work, but it might not the one you want.

    If Chinese/Japanese/Korean (CJK) languages are in the content, set hasCJKLanguage as true in the config.toml, so that Hugo could auto detect CJK languages to make .Summary and .WordCount behave correctly. See here

    The length of text to show in a .Summary could be set as summaryLength in config.toml. See here

  • User-defined Summary Split

    Alternatively, you may add the <!--more--> summary divider where you want to split the article. Content that comes before the summary divider will be used as that content’s summary and stored in the .Summary page variable with all HTML formatting intact. The only extra work is add the <!--more--> summary divider.

  • User-defined Summary

    You may want a specific summary for the post other than the front sentences of the content. In this case, you could but summary in the yaml head of the post with the param name summary.

Series Intro Picture

By default, the series recommendation card list in the sidebar use themes/Susan/static/img/default.png as intro picture. You can set name, img, and summary in data/series.toml. name of the series should be in lower capitals. If the series cannot be found in series.toml, default.png will be used.

Here is an example of data/series.toml:

[[series]]
name = "review repo"
img = "images/blog/2018-08/test3.jpg"
summary = "This is the place I write reviews"

[[series]]
name = "blog diary"
img = "images/blog/2018-08/test5.jpg"
summary = "How I build up my personal website"
