Discover what the Hugo - LoveIt theme is all about and the core-concepts behind it.
1 Requirements
Thanks to the simplicity of Hugo, Hugo is the only dependency of this theme.
Just install latest version of :(far fa-file-archive): Hugo extended (> 0.62.0) for your OS (Windows, Linux, macOS).
{{< admonition note "Why not support earlier versions of Hugo?" >}} Since Markdown Render Hooks was introduced in the Hugo Christmas Edition, this theme only supports Hugo versions above 0.62.0. {{< /admonition >}}
{{< admonition note "Why need the Hugo extended version?" >}} Since this theme processes SCSS to CSS, Hugo needs to be the extended version. {{< /admonition >}}
2 Installation
The following steps are here to help you initialize your new website. If you don’t know Hugo at all, we strongly suggest you learn more about it by following this great documentation for beginners.
2.1 Create Your Project
Hugo provides a new
command to create a new website:
hugo new site my_website
cd my_website
2.2 Install the Theme
The LoveIt theme’s repository is: https://github.com/dillonzq/LoveIt.
You can download the latest release :(far fa-file-archive): .zip file of the theme and extract it in the themes
directory.
Alternatively, clone this repository to the themes
directory:
git clone -b master https://github.com/dillonzq/LoveIt.git themes/LoveIt
Or, create an empty git repository and make this repository a submodule of your site directory:
git init
git submodule -b master add https://github.com/dillonzq/LoveIt.git themes/LoveIt
2.3 Basic Configuration
The following is a basic configuration for the LoveIt theme:
baseURL = "http://example.org/"
# [en, zh-cn, fr, ...] determines default content language
defaultContentLanguage = "en"
# language code
languageCode = "en"
title = "My New Hugo Site"
# Change the default theme to be use when building the site with Hugo
theme = "LoveIt"
[params]
# LoveIt theme version
version = "0.1.X"
[menu]
[[menu.main]]
identifier = "posts"
# you can add extra information before the name (HTML format is supported), such as icons
pre = ""
name = "Posts"
url = "/posts/"
# title will be shown when you hover on this menu link
title = ""
weight = 1
[[menu.main]]
identifier = "tags"
pre = ""
name = "Tags"
url = "/tags/"
title = ""
weight = 2
[[menu.main]]
identifier = "categories"
pre = ""
name = "Categories"
url = "/categories/"
title = ""
weight = 3
{{< admonition >}}
When building the website, you can set a theme by using --theme
option. However, we suggest you modify the configuration file (config.toml) and set the theme as the default.
{{< /admonition >}}
2.4 Create Your First Post
Here is the way to create your first post:
hugo new posts/first_post.md
Feel free to edit the post file by adding some sample content and replacing the title value in the beginning of the file.
{{< admonition >}}
By default all posts and pages are created as a draft. If you want to render these pages, remove the property draft: true
from the metadata or set the property draft: false
.
{{< /admonition >}}
2.5 Launching the Website Locally
Launch by using the following command:
hugo serve
Go to http://localhost:1313
.
{{< admonition tip >}}
When you run hugo serve
, when the contents of the files change, the page automatically refreshes with the changes.
{{< /admonition >}}
2.6 Build the Website
When your site is ready to deploy, run the following command:
hugo
A public
folder will be generated, containing all static content and assets for your website. It can now be deployed on any web server.
{{< admonition tip >}} The website can be automatically published and hosted with Netlify (Read more about Automated HUGO deployments with Netlify). Alternatively, you can use AWS Amplify, Github pages, Render and more... {{< /admonition >}}
3 Configuration
3.1 Site Configuration
In addition to Hugo global configuration and menu configuration, LoveIt lets you define the following parameters in your site configuration (here is a config.toml
, whose values are default).
{{< admonition >}} Note that some of these parameters are explained in details in other sections of this documentation. {{< /admonition >}}

3.2 Favicons, Browserconfig, Manifest
It is recommended to put your own favicons:
- apple-touch-icon.png (180x180)
- favicon-32x32.png (32x32)
- favicon-16x16.png (16x16)
- mstile-150x150.png (150x150)
- android-chrome-192x192.png (192x192)
- android-chrome-512x512.png (512x512)
into /static
. They’re easily created via https://realfavicongenerator.net/.
Customize browserconfig.xml
and site.webmanifest
to set theme-color and background-color.
3.3 Add Logo and Cover for SEO
Add a logo image (127x40) and a cover image (800x600) in the static
directory.
3.4 Style Customization
LoveIt theme has been built to be as configurable as possible by defining custom .scss
style files.
The directory including the custom .scss
style files is config/css
relative to your project root directory.
In config/css/_override.scss
, you can override the variables in themes/LoveIt/assets/css/_variables.scss
to customize the style.
Here is a example:
@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Fira+Mono:400,700&display=swap&subset=latin-ext');
$code-font-family: Fira Mono, Source Code Pro, Menlo, Consolas, Monaco, monospace;
In config/css/_custom.scss
, you can add some css style code to customize the style.
4 Multilingual and i18n
LoveIt theme is fully compatible with Hugo multilingual mode.
It provides:
- Translation strings for default values (English, Chinese and French). Feel free to contribute!
- In-browser language switching
4.1 Basic Configuration
After learning how Hugo handle multilingual websites, define your languages in your site configuration.
For example with English, Chinese and French website:
# [en, zh-cn, fr, ...] determines default content language
defaultContentLanguage = "en"
[languages]
[languages.en]
weight = 1
title = "My New Hugo Site"
languageCode = "en"
languageName = "English"
[[languages.en.menu.main]]
identifier = "posts"
pre = ""
name = "Posts"
url = "/posts/"
title = ""
weight = 1
[[languages.en.menu.main]]
identifier = "tags"
pre = ""
name = "Tags"
url = "/tags/"
title = ""
weight = 2
[[languages.en.menu.main]]
identifier = "categories"
pre = ""
name = "Categories"
url = "/categories/"
title = ""
weight = 3
[languages.zh-cn]
weight = 2
title = "我的全新 Hugo 网站"
# language code, CN only here
languageCode = "zh-CN"
languageName = "简体中文"
# whether to include Chinese/Japanese/Korean
hasCJKLanguage = true
[[languages.zh-cn.menu.main]]
identifier = "posts"
pre = ""
name = "文章"
url = "/posts/"
title = ""
weight = 1
[[languages.zh-cn.menu.main]]
identifier = "tags"
pre = ""
name = "标签"
url = "/tags/"
title = ""
weight = 2
[[languages.zh-cn.menu.main]]
identifier = "categories"
pre = ""
name = "分类"
url = "/categories/"
title = ""
weight = 3
[languages.fr]
weight = 3
title = "Mon nouveau site Hugo"
languageCode = "fr"
languageName = "Français"
[[languages.fr.menu.main]]
identifier = "posts"
pre = ""
name = "Postes"
url = "/posts/"
title = ""
weight = 1
[[languages.fr.menu.main]]
identifier = "tags"
pre = ""
name = "Balises"
url = "/tags/"
title = ""
weight = 2
[[languages.fr.menu.main]]
identifier = "categories"
name = "Catégories"
pre = ""
url = "/categories/"
title = ""
weight = 3
Then, for each new page, append the language code to the file name.
Single file my-page.md
is split in three files:
- in English:
my-page.en.md
- in Chinese:
my-page.zh-cn.md
- in French:
my-page.fr.md
{{< admonition >}} Be aware that only translated pages are displayed in menu. It’s not replaced with default language content. {{< /admonition >}}
{{< admonition tip >}} Use Front Matter parameter to translate urls too. {{< /admonition >}}
4.2 Overwrite Translation Strings
Translations strings are used for common default values used in the theme. Translations are available in English, Chinese and French, but you may use another language or want to override default values.
To override these values, create a new file in your local i18n folder i18n/<languageCode>.toml
and inspire yourself from themes/LoveIt/i18n/en.toml
.
By the way, as these translations could be used by other people, please take the time to propose a translation by making a PR to the theme!
