Metis is a simple Hugo theme for academics, it features a blog section with MathJax. It is very, very minimal and you probably want to change it up a bit.
The theme is named after Metis, the Titaness of wisdom, skill and craft who helped Zeus to free his siblings from his fathers’ stomach by creating a potion causing him to vomit them out.
config.toml
[permalinks]
post = "/post/:year/:month/:day/:slug/"
note = "/note/:year/:month/:day/:slug/"
The menu can be defined here:
[[menu.main]]
name = "Home"
url = "/"
weight = 1
[[menu.main]]
name = "About"
url = "/about/"
weight = 2
[[menu.main]]
name = "Categories"
url = "/categories/"
weight = 3
[[menu.main]]
name = "Tags"
url = "/tags/"
weight = 4
[[menu.main]]
name = "Subscribe"
url = "/index.xml"
Alternatively, you can add menu: main
to the front matter of your content to make them show up in the menu.
The page footer can be defined in .Params.footer
, and the text is treated as Markdown, e.g.,
[params]
footer = "© [Floris den Hengst](https://florisdenhengst.github.io)"
Customization
There are two layout files under layouts/partials/
that you may want to override: head_custom.html
and foot_custom.html
.
There are only two CSS files in static/css/fonts.css
and static/css/style.css
which you may alter as you please.
Acknowledgements
This theme wouldn’t have been possible without the awesome Hugo documentation and the excellent Xmin theme as an example.
