Installation

To install the monday theme, clone it into themes directory of your hugo project:

git clone https://github.com/cyevgeniy/monday-theme themes/monday-theme

Configuration

Add theme=monday-theme to your site’s config.toml file, after that Hugo will use the monday theme for building your site.

Adding top navigation menu is like putting these lines in config.toml:

[menu]
  [[menu.main]]
    name = "Home"
    url = "/"
    weight = 1
  [[menu.main]]
    name = "Blog"
    url = "/posts/"
    weight = 2
  [[menu.main]]
    name = "About"
    url = "/about/"
    weight = 3

The theme supports only single-level menu.

Use featured: true param in a post to make it appear in the “Featured posts” section. If you don’t want this post to be listed in the blog posts list, add hidden: true parameter to the frontmatter of the post.

Intro text

Intro text is displayed at the bottom of the aside block.

To add the intro block, use introBody and introTitle params:

[params]
  introTitle="Introduction"
  introBody = """Hello, this is my blog and my introduction message. Put
  here small description about yourself. It is also a good idea to put here
  your contact email or something like this."""

Featured images are shown right after a post heading in the blog page. To set featured image for the post, use featured_image param:

---
Title: "Some blog post"
featured_image: "/img/subdir/img.png"
---
