Silicate configurations

Reading time: about 2 min

Silicate has built-in feature that you can configure from your hugo.toml file.

Most of them are described in the themes/silicate/hugo.toml file as well. You should have a look here to see how they are organised.

All these configurations go into the params.silicate table, so if you don’t have one already, you can copy the one from themes/silicate/hugo.toml or add the following to your config:

[params]
    ...
    [params.silicate]
        # All configuration will go here

Global features

Disabling Silicate branding

If you want to remove the “Made with the Silicate Framework!” message at the bottom of pages, you can simply do so by adding the following configuration:

show_notice = false

Comic pages features

All comic pages configurations go into the params.silicate.pages table, like so:

[params]
    ...
    [params.silicate]
        ...
        [params.silicate.pages]
            # All pages configuration will go here

Navbar location

By default, Silicate will render a navigation bar below and above the comic’s strips.

If you want the nav bar to be only below the comic’s strips, you can add the following configuration:

nav_above_page = false

Chapter navigation

By default, if you group your pages into chapters, Silicate will add a button to navigate to the previous and next chapter of the current page.

If you want to disable that, you can add the following configuration:

show_chapter_nav = false
