### 1st April 2017

With Hugo v0.20 the `.Now` is deprecated and will be replaced by the `now` template function. v0.19 does support both and as part of the transition phase. Hence the least required version of Hugo is v0.19.

### 28th October 2016 - Option to link custom assets

You're now able to link local or external assets by adding their url to
the `custom_js` and `custom_css` variables in the config file.

### 27th November 2015 - Upgrade to Hugo v0.15

Hugo v0.15 is required in order to run the theme with the changes listed below:

#### Google Analytics template

The setup of Google Analytics changed slighty due to the switch to Hugo's built-in template. In order to update the theme you need to relocate thr `google_analytics` variable in the configs and rename it to `googleAnalytics`. Take a look in the example [`config.toml`](https://github.com/digitalcraftsman/hugo-icarus-theme/blob/dev/exampleSite/config.toml).

### 18th October 2015 - Rename i10n to l10n

Since the right shortcut of localization is "l10n" and not "i10n" (from internationalization) I renamed the shortcut in all places of the theme. The most significant change is the renaming of the `i10n.toml` file inside the `data` folder to `l10n.toml`. This has the side effect that all key paths used for l10n changed within the templates too.
