Demo Site

Check out the Demo Site for a simple example and detailed tutorial.

Getting Started with freshPink

This guide explains how to install and apply the theme using Hugo Modules (recommended). Follow these steps to get your blog up and running:

1. Create a New Hugo Site

Open your terminal and run:

hugo new site my-blog
cd my-blog

2. Initialize Hugo Modules

Initialize your Hugo site as a module by running:

hugo mod init github.com/yourname/my-blog

3. Configure Your Site

Open your hugo.toml file and customize it to match your site. For example:

baseURL = "https://yourusername.github.io/your-repo-name/"
title = "My Awesome Blog"
canonifyURLs = true
relativeURLs = false

• baseURL: Set this to the URL of your GitHub Pages site (usually in the format https://username.github.io/repo-name/).
• title: Choose a name for your blog.
• Make sure the baseURL matches the repository name you use for GitHub Pages.

4. Add freshPink as a Hugo Module

In the same hugo.toml file, add the following section to import the theme:

[module]
  [[module.imports]]
    path = "github.com/elecbrandy/freshpink"

5. Download the Theme Module

Run this command in your terminal to download the theme:

hugo mod get github.com/elecbrandy/freshpink

6. Run Your Site

Finally, run the Hugo server:

hugo server

Open your browser and visit http://localhost:1313 to see your site with the freshPink theme applied.

Keeping the Theme Up to Date

To update the theme to the latest commit in the future, run:

hugo mod get -u github.com/elecbrandy/freshpink

If you encounter any cache issues, you can clean up Hugo Modules with:

hugo mod clean
