Theme plus: Add Netlify CMS to an existing site with Huguette

Having second thoughts? Adding NetlifyCMS later is not easy, but certainly possible!

Adding Netlify CMS

I’m not joking when I say it’s not easy, and really recommend you use the one-click install for a brand new site with Huguette, the css and NetlifyCMS enabled:

Deploy with Netlify

But if you insist on adding Netlify CMS by hand, enable it from your config.toml. Add netlifycms = true to the params section so it looks like this:

[params]
  css = true
  netlifycms = true

You will need to edit config.yml in `themes/huguette/static/admin` to match your site. Explaining how is out of scope for this installation doc, but you can use Netlify CMS’s documentation: instructions for adding NetlifyCMS to Hugo.
