Using Netlify CMS with Hugo

Getting started with Netlify CMS…

The steps were pretty straightforward as outlined here. The part that was confusing for me was mapping the front matter to the “fields” in the config.yml.

Below is what part of my config.yml looks like;

    fields: # The fields each document in this collection have
      - {label: "Title", name: "title", widget: "string"}
      - {label: "Publish Date", name: "date", widget: "datetime"}
      - {label: "Meta Description", name: "description", widget: "text"}
      - {label: "Page Title", name: "pagetitle", widget: "text"}
      - {label: "Image", name: "image", widget: "image", required: false}
      - {label: "Body", name: "body", widget: "markdown"}
