Update

As requested by a large number of users over the years, you can now update Wowchemy directly from Github. See the TLDR section at https://wowchemy.com/docs/guide/update/

BREAKING CHANGES:

The Hugo module names have been renamed as required by Hugo's module versioning system. Learn about the new module names in the TLDR section at https://wowchemy.com/docs/guide/update/

Move gallery album folders to assets/media/albums/. Album name should be defined in shortcode as album. Album names should be lowercase due to a Hugo bug: gohugoio/hugo#7686
