Most code is in partials that are included by the layouts. Elements can be added, changed, or removed easily by overriding the corresponding layout or partial.
For example, the layouts list.html
, single.html
, taxonomy.html
, and term.html
include the partial paige/article.html
.
paige/article.html
includes the partials paige/metadata.html
, paige/toc.html
, and paige/content.html
.
To change the page title for those layouts, change paige/metadata.html
.
To change the page title for single.html
,
replace the use of paige/article.html
in single.html
with the use of
paige/metadata.html
, paige/toc.html
, and paige/content.html
,
then replace that use of paige/metadata.html
with your own design.
Use CSS selectors to extend the default styling.

If you hide #paige-credit
, please credit this project in a post to help others find it.
By default, everything is shown.
If you want a more minimal look,
try the following in yoursite/layouts/partials/paige/style-first.css
:
#paige-authors,
#paige-collections,
#paige-credit,

}
By default, the content expands to fill the whole window.
This can result in very long lines, depending on the window width.
To use the recommended line length of 66 characters,
try the following in yoursite/hugo.toml
:
[params.paige]
style = "#paige-content { width: 66ch; }"
If you configure a menu, and intend for it to be sufficient for all navigation, you should hide the breadcrumbs on every page, and hide the collection, section, and page lists on the home page if you use the default home page layout.
To hide the breadcrumbs on every page,
try the following in yoursite/layouts/partials/paige/style-first.css
:
#paige-breadcrumbs {
display: none;
}
To hide the collection, section, and page lists on the home page,
try the following in yoursite/content/_index.md
:
[paige]
style = """
#paige-collections,
#paige-sections,
#paige-pages {
display: none;
}
