The following are key concepts for Hugo site customization with themes. Hugo permits you to supplement or override any theme template or static file with files in your working directory.
{{% note %}} When you use a theme cloned from its git repository, do not edit the theme's files directly. Instead, theme customization in Hugo is a matter of overriding the templates made available to you in a theme. This provides the added flexibility of tweaking a theme to meet your needs while staying current with a theme's upstream. {{% /note %}}
Override Static Files
There are times where you want to include static assets that differ from versions of the same asset that ships with a theme.
For example, a theme may use jQuery 1.8 in the following location:
/themes/<THEME>/static/js/jquery.min.js
You want to replace the version of jQuery that ships with the theme with the newer jquery-3.1.1.js. The easiest way to do this is to replace the file with a file of the same name in the same relative path in your project's root. Therefore, change jquery-3.1.1.js to jquery.min.js so that it is identical to the theme's version and place the file here:
/static/js/jquery.min.js
Override Template Files
Anytime Hugo looks for a matching template, it will first check the working directory before looking in the theme directory. If you would like to modify a template, simply create that template in your local layouts directory.
The template lookup order explains the rules Hugo uses to determine which template to use for a given piece of content. Read and understand these rules carefully.
This is especially helpful when the theme creator used partial templates. These partial templates are perfect for easy injection into the theme with minimal maintenance to ensure future compatibility.
For example:
/themes/<THEME>/layouts/_default/single.html
Would be overwritten by
/layouts/_default/single.html
{{% warning %}}
This only works for templates that Hugo "knows about" (i.e., that follow its convention for folder structure and naming). If a theme imports template files in a creatively named directory, Hugo won’t know to look for the local /layouts first.
{{% /warning %}}
Override Archetypes
If the archetype that ships with the theme for a given content type (or all content types) doesn’t fit with how you are using the theme, feel free to copy it to your /archetypes directory and make modifications as you see fit.
{{% warning "Beware of layouts/_default" %}}
The _default directory is a very powerful force in Hugo, especially as it pertains to overwriting theme files. If a default file is located in the local archetypes or layout directory (i.e., archetypes/default.md or /layouts/_default/*.html, respectively), it will override the file of the same name in the corresponding theme directory (i.e., themes/<THEME>/archetypes/default.md or themes/<THEME>/layout/_defaults/*.html, respectively).
It is usually better to override specific files; i.e. rather than using layouts/_default/*.html in your working directory.
