Hugo: How to Install Share Buttons in Your Posts

Prerequisites

  • Code Editor: A software used for editing code. Can be anything from Sublime Text, Visual Studio Code, Atom, or another texteditor. For this tutorial, I personally used Visual Studio Code.

The installation steps.

  • Download the file share-buttons.html and save it under the folder layouts/partials directory of your project.
    alt text
  • Add the following line to your layout on the place where you want the share button appear.
    {{ partial "share-buttons.html" . }}
    

    In my theme (coder) it should be placed in the layout/posts/single.html.
