## Replacing a template
When a site template and a theme template have the same path, for example `templates/page.html` and `themes/theme_name/templates/page.html`, the site template is the one that will be used. This is how you can replace a whole template for a theme.
When your site uses a theme, the generated structure follows the theme's structure whenever possible, i.e. there are no user defined templates with the same name and relative path as the theme's; for example: with two files `templates/page.html` and `themes/theme_name/templates/page.html`, the site template is the one that will be used. Such a conflict results in the theme's template being ignored in favor of the template defined by the user.

For example, if you cloned a theme in `themes/simple-blog`, the theme name to use
in the configuration file is `simple-blog`. Also make sure to place the variable in the top level of the
`.toml` hierarchy and not after a dict like [extra] or [markdown].
Some themes require additional configuration before they can work properly. Be sure to follow the instructions found on your chosen theme's documentation to properly configure the theme.
