Third-Party Plugins

You can add or remove third-party plugins from hugo.toml file. We create a loop for plugins. You can see two plugins loops here, the first one is for css, and the last one is for js.

CSS plugins

[[params.plugins.css]]
link = "https://cdn.examplesite.com/your-plugin.css"
attributes = "your-attributes" # optional field

js plugins

[[params.plugins.js]]
link = "https://cdn.examplesite.com/your-plugin.js"
