Installation

Requirements

Install Hugo v0.164.0 or newer and Git. Confirm the active binary before continuing:

hugo version

Add the theme

From the root of an existing Hugo site, add the theme as a submodule. The repository uses the hugo branch:

git submodule add -b hugo https://github.com/everfu/hugo-solitude.git themes/solitude

Enable the theme and declare the output formats used by local search and asynchronous links:

theme: solitude

outputs:
  home: [HTML, RSS, Search, Links]
  section: [HTML, RSS]
  taxonomy: [HTML, RSS]
  term: [HTML, RSS]

params:
  solitude:
    search:
      enable: true
      type: local

Copy themes/solitude/exampleSite/hugo.yaml as a reference, then merge the values you need into your own configuration. Do not edit the theme's default file in place.
