## Customize
### Include
| If this file exists in the site | It is included at |
| ---------------------------------- | ------------------------------- |
| `partials/paige/body-first.html` | The beginning of the body tag |
| `partials/paige/body-last.html` | The end of the body tag |
| `partials/paige/footer-first.html` | The beginning of the footer tag |
| `partials/paige/footer-last.html` | The end of the footer tag |
| `partials/paige/head-first.html` | The beginning of the head tag |

| `partials/paige/style-last.html` | The end of the style tag |
### Override
Most code is in partials that are included by the layouts.
Elements can be added, changed, or removed easily by overriding the corresponding layout or partial.
For example, the layouts `list.html`, `single.html`, `taxonomy.html`, and `term.html`
include the partial `paige/article.html`.
`paige/article.html` includes the partials `paige/metadata.html`, `paige/toc.html`, and `paige/content.html`.
To change the page title for those layouts, change `paige/metadata.html`.
To change the page title for `single.html`,
replace the use of `paige/article.html` in `single.html` with the use of
`paige/metadata.html`, `paige/toc.html`, and `paige/content.html`,
then replace that use of `paige/metadata.html` with your own design.

By default, everything is shown.
If you want a more minimal look,
try the following in your `layouts/partials/paige/style-first.css`:
```css
.paige-authors,
.paige-date,
.paige-reading-time,
.paige-terms,
.paige-toc,
#paige-credit,
#paige-pages .paige-authors,
#paige-pages .paige-date-header,
#paige-pages .paige-date,
#paige-pages .paige-summary,
#paige-pages .paige-terms {
display: none;
}
```
This is used in the example site.
## Design
The HTML author is the page authors.
The HTML description is the page description.
The HTML keywords is a union of the page keywords, tags, and categories.
The HTML title is the page title, followed by a middle dot, followed by the site title.
If one is missing, the other is used without the middle dot.
For the home page, the title is the page title, or the site title otherwise.
The HTML body has a header, a body, and a footer.
The header has the menu.
The body has the page article.
The footer has the copyright notice and the theme link.
The article has the page metadata, table of contents, and content.
The metadata has the page title, description, terms, authors, date, and reading time.
The copyright notice, title, and description can be Markdown. Markup is stripped for HTML and RSS titles.
The page title is displayed in an `h1` tag, so page content headers must start with `h2`.
The page date is the publish date.
## Implementation
The following NPM packages are used:
- [bootstrap](https://www.npmjs.com/package/bootstrap/v/5.3.0-alpha1)
- [bootstrap-icons](https://www.npmjs.com/package/bootstrap-icons/v/1.10.3)
- [katex](https://www.npmjs.com/package/katex/v/0.16.4)
Hugo names, HTML names, CSS names, and JavaScript names that begin with "paige" capitalized in any way are reserved.
