Content & structure
Starting fresh
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.
Adding content
You can add a new section to the homepage via running
hugo new homepage/my-new-content.md
To create a page separate from the homepage, run
hugo new my-new-page.md
Using icons
This theme includes the full set of Font Awesome v4 Icons. Use the {{<icon>}}-shortcode with the respective "fa fa-ICONNAME"-class to use an icon directly in your .markdown files à la
Look at this nice »envelope«-icon: {{<icon class="fa fa-envelope">}}. I took this from https://fontawesome.com/v4.7.0/icon/envelope :-)For the full list of icons, see Font Awesome v4 Icons.
Adding your branding / colors / css
Add a custom_head.html-file to your layouts/partials-directory. In there you may add a <style>-tag or you may add a <link>-tag referencing your own custom.css (in case you prefer to have a separate .css-file). Checkout the custom_head.html-file from the exampleSite-directory to get started and to find more detailed instructions.
