git submodule add https://github.com/zjedi/hugo-scroll.git themes/hugo-scroll
Then, adjust the config.toml
as detailed below & in the file comments.
Playing around with our example site
If you simply want to check out the exampleSite
, you can run
git clone https://github.com/zjedi/hugo-scroll.git hugo-scroll
cd hugo-scroll
hugo server --source=exampleSite --themesDir=../..
For more information, read the official Hugo setup guide.
If you are starting fresh, simply copy over the contents of the exampleSite
-directory included in this theme to your source directory. That should give you a good idea about how things work, and then you can go on from there to make the site your own.
Please check out the config.toml included in the exampleSite of this theme.
You can add a new section to the homepage by running hugo new homepage/my-new-content.md

To create a page separate from the homepage, run hugo new my-new-page.md

Customizing CSS

from assets\css\variables.scss
can be overridden by adding
:root {
--some-var-name: blue!important;

Icons
This theme includes the full set of Fork Awesome 1.2.0 Icons. Use the {{<icon>}}
-shortcode with the respective "fa fa-ICONNAME"-class
to use an icon directly in your .markdown

Look at this nice »envelope«-icon: `{{<icon class="fa fa-envelope">}}`. I took this from https://forkaweso.me/Fork-Awesome/icon/envelope/ :-)

, see exampleSite
: header_logo: "images/chef-hat.png"
Video cover
Set header_use_video: true
in /exampleSite/content/_index.md
and define video source via custom partial, such as exampleSite/layouts/partials/custom_header_video.html
.
Footer version information
In order to see technical version information (extracted from Hugo's GitInfo)) set the following general option in your config.toml: enableGitInfo = true
External links
You can add an external link in the menu, see external.md

You can also use extlink
shortcode to create a link opening in a new tab:
Visit as at {{<extlink text="Instagram" href="https://www.instagram.com/yourInstagramName/">}}
Referencing and showing icons in front of the link text is possible with a new parameter icon
:
Visit as at {{<extlink icon="fa fa-instagram" text="Instagram" href="https://www.instagram.com/yourInstagramName/">}}
