Content Display & Summaries

Controls homepage post limits, /posts and /pages pagination, and summary length in list cards.

Homepage recent posts limit

To keep the homepage tidy, you can limit the number of recent posts shown. Extra posts are accessible via a “View more” button.

Where to configure

Set in hugo.toml:

[params.home]
  # Note: Number of recent posts shown on the homepage.
  recentPostsLimit = 6

Summary truncation length

In post lists, if a page has no explicit description, the theme extracts a snippet from the start of the content as the summary. You can control the maximum length.

Set in hugo.toml:

[params]
  # Note: Summary length for the homepage and list cards, in characters.
  articleCardSummaryLength = 160

/posts and /pages page size

The /posts and /pages entry pages now share the exact same overview UI: horizontal card list, matching pager UI, and the same pagination/infinite-scroll switch behavior.

Set in hugo.toml:

[params.posts]
  # Note: Controls the number of items shown per page for both /posts and /pages; the total list paginates automatically.
  # Note: Values less than or equal to 0 fall back to the default value of 10.
  pageSize = 10

Tips

• Manual summary split: use `

` in your content to define the summary region (the theme prefers it).

• Prefer description: if a page sets description, the theme uses it as the summary on the homepage, /posts, and /pages list cards.
• Mobile pagination: on small screens, the pager is merged into one bar showing only previous / current / next.
• Scroll mode applies to both lists: the setting panel’s pagination/infinite-scroll switch now affects both /posts and /pages.

Article card cover images

Article cards in list views automatically display a cover image when available. The theme checks these front matter fields in order:

image > featuredImage > featured_image > cover > thumbnail > banner

If none match, the theme falls back to the first image resource inside the Page Bundle. When a cover image is found, the card gains an article-card--with-cover class and renders the image above the title.

Content type matching

The /posts and /pages sections also match content where the front matter type is set to posts or pages. This means setting type: posts in a page’s front matter will include it in the posts list UI, even if it lives outside the /posts/ content directory.
