+++ title = “Configuration” weight = 40 +++

The default configuration is sufficient to get Zola running locally but not more than that. It follows the philosophy of paying for only what you need; almost everything is turned off by default.

To change the configuration, edit the config.toml file. If you are not familiar with TOML, have a look at the TOML spec.

Only the base_url variable is mandatory; everything else is optional. All configuration variables used by Zola as well as their default values are listed below:

# The base URL of the site; the only required configuration variable.
base_url = "mywebsite.com"

# The site title and description; used in RSS by default.
title = ""
description = ""

# The default language; used in RSS.
default_language = "en"

# The site theme to use.
theme = ""

# Slugify paths for compatibility with ASCII-only URLs produced by Zola < 0.9
# Enabling this setting removes non-English (UTF8) characters in URLs
slugify_paths = false

# When set to "true", all code blocks are highlighted.
highlight_code = false

# The theme to use for code highlighting.
# See below for list of allowed values.
highlight_theme = "base16-ocean-dark"

# When set to "true", an RSS feed is automatically generated.
generate_rss = false

# The number of articles to include in the RSS feed. All items are included if
# this limit is not set (the default).
# rss_limit = 20

# When set to "true", files in the `static` directory are hard-linked. Useful for large
# static files. Note that for this to work, both `static` and the
# output directory need to be on the same filesystem. Note that the theme's `static`
# files are always copied, regardles of this setting.
# hard_link_static = false

# The taxonomies to be rendered for the site and their configuration.
# Example:
#     taxonomies = [
#       {name = "tags", rss = true}, # each tag will have its own RSS feed
#       {name = "tags", lang = "fr"}, # you can have taxonomies with the same name in multiple languages
#       {name = "categories", paginate_by = 5},  # 5 items per page for a term
#       {name = "authors"}, # Basic definition: no RSS or pagination
#     ]
#
taxonomies = []

# The additional languages for the site.
# Example:
#     languages = [
#       {code = "fr", rss = true}, # there will be a RSS feed for French content
#       {code = "fr", search = true}, # there will be a Search Index for French content
#       {code = "it"}, # there won't be a RSS feed for Italian content
#     ]
#
languages = []

# When set to "true", the Sass files in the `sass` directory are compiled.
compile_sass = false

# When set to "true", a search index is built from the pages and section
# content for `default_language`.
build_search_index = false

# A list of glob patterns specifying asset files to ignore when the content
# directory is processed. Defaults to none, which means that all asset files are
# copied over to the `public` directory.
# Example:
#     ignored_content = ["*.{graphml,xlsx}", "temp.*"]
ignored_content = []

# A list of directories used to search for additional `.sublime-syntax` files.
extra_syntaxes = []

# Optional translation object. The key if present should be a language code.
# Example:
#     default_language = "fr"
#
#     [translations]
#     [translations.fr]
#     title = "Un titre"
#
#     [translations.en]
#     title = "A title"


# Configuration of the link checker.
[link_checker]
# Skip link checking for external URLs that start with these prefixes
skip_prefixes = [
    "http://[2001:db8::]/",
]

# Skip anchor checking for external URLs that start with these prefixes
skip_anchor_prefixes = [
    "https://caniuse.com/",
]

Syntax highlighting

Zola currently has the following highlight themes available:

Zola uses the Sublime Text themes, making it very easy to add more. If you want a theme not listed above, please open an issue or a pull request on the Zola repo.
