To add a menu item add [[menu.header]] item to config.toml. For example:

[menu]
  [[menu.header]]
    name = "posts"
    weight = 0
    url = "/posts"

To add a submenu item add [[menu.header]] item with a parent parameter to config.toml. For example:

[menu]
  [[menu.header]]
    identifier = "post"
    name = "posts"
    weight = 0
  [[menu.header]]
    parent = "post"
    name = "All Posts"
    url = "/posts"
  [[menu.header]]
    parent = "post"
    name = "categories"
    url = "/categories"
  [[menu.header]]
    parent = "post"
    name = "tags"
    url = "/tags"

To enable disqus comments add disqusShortname to your config.toml.

You can turn off disqus comments per page by adding nocomments = true to the front matter.

To disable the post date from a specific page add showpostdate = false to your relevant .md file.

Pages now also support Lastmod. This will not appear until you populate lastmod: in the page’s frontmatter, unless you have enableGitInfo set to true in your site’s config file, in which case it will use the date of the last git commit containing that page.
