## Installation
### Quick Start
To give you a running start this installation puts a fully configured [starter repo](https://github.com/forestryio/hyde-hugo-starter) into your Git account and sets it up in a content manager / CMS.
_[Forestry](https://forestry.io) Starter-Kit:_
[](https://app.forestry.io/quick-start?repo=forestryio/hyde-hugo-starter&provider=github&engine=hugo&version=0.49)
### Standard Installation
To install Hyde as your default theme, first install this repository in the `themes/` directory:
$ cd themes/
$ git clone https://github.com/spf13/hyde.git
Second, specify `hyde` as your default theme in the `config.toml` file. Just add the line
theme = "hyde"
at the top of the file.
## Options
Hyde includes some customizable options, typically applied via classes on the `` element.
### Sidebar menu
Create a list of nav links in the sidebar by assigning "menu=main" in the front matter.
### Sticky sidebar content
By default Hyde ships with a sidebar that affixes it's content to the bottom of the sidebar. You can optionally disabled this by removing the `.sidebar-sticky` class from the sidebar's `.container`. Sidebar content will then normally flow from top to bottom.
```html
```
### Themes
Hyde ships with eight optional themes based on the [base16 color scheme](https://github.com/chriskempson/base16). Apply a theme to change the color scheme (mostly applies to sidebar and links).
There are eight themes available at this time.
To use a theme, add the `themeColor` variable under `params`, like so:
**TOML**
```toml
theme = "hyde"
[params]
themeColor = "theme-base-09"
```
**YAML**
```yaml
theme: "hyde"
params:
themeColor: "theme-base-09"
```
To create your own theme, look to the Themes section of [included CSS file](https://github.com/poole/hyde/blob/master/public/css/hyde.css). Copy any existing theme (they're only a few lines of CSS), rename it, and change the provided colors.
### Reverse layout
To reverse page orientation, add the `layoutReverse` variable under `params`, like so:
**TOML**
```toml
theme = "hyde"
[params]
layoutReverse = true
```
**YAML**
```yaml
theme: "hyde"
params:
layoutReverse: true
```
### Disqus
You can optionally enable a comment system powered by Disqus for the posts. Simply add the variable `disqusShortname` to your config file.
**TOML**
```toml
disqusShortname = "spf13"
```
**YAML**
```yaml
disqusShortname : spf13
```
> **Note:** Previous version 1.0 the Disqus shortname had to be defined inside the `[params]` block.
## Google Analytics
Google Analytics can be enabled by assigning your tracking code to the `googleAnalytics` variable in the config file:
**TOML**
```toml
googleAnalytics = "Your tracking code"
```
**YAML**
```yaml
googleAnalytics: Your tracking code
```
