Configure services

Hugo provides embedded templates to simplify site and content creation. Some of these templates are configurable. For example, the embedded Google Analytics template requires a Google tag ID.

This is the default configuration:

services:
  disqus:
    shortname: ''
  googleAnalytics:
    id: ''
  instagram:
    accessToken: ''
    disableInlineCSS: false
  rss:
    limit: -1
  twitter:
    disableInlineCSS: false
  x:
    disableInlineCSS: false

[services]
  [services.disqus]
    shortname = ''
  [services.googleAnalytics]
    id = ''
  [services.instagram]
    accessToken = ''
    disableInlineCSS = false
  [services.rss]
    limit = -1
  [services.twitter]
    disableInlineCSS = false
  [services.x]
    disableInlineCSS = false

{
   "services": {
      "disqus": {
