Custom css is not applied by example config.toml

[jlandowner]

I found an incorrect example in config.toml.
I set custom css option as referenced in example exampleSite/config.toml, but it was not be applied.

[params]
	# Custom CSS applied to default styles.
	customCSS = "css/custom.css"

css is here.

$ ls -lR ./static 
static/css:
total 8
-rw-r--r--  1 jlandowner  staff  203  5 19 21:06 custom.css <- not applied

I found the generated link tag href is incorrect.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="http://localhost:1313/css/css/custom.css">

This is because layouts/partials/head.html already specifies "css" in fixed path.

<!-- Use customcss if you like -->
  {{- if isset .Site.Params "customcss" -}}
  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="{{ .Site.BaseURL }}css/{{ .Site.Params.customCSS }}" />
  {{- end -}}

I got 2 options.

1. remove "css" from exampleSite/config.toml
2. remove "css" from layouts/partials/head.html

I feel 2 is good but 1 is better for compatibility.
What do you think?

Hey @jlandowner, thank you for the detailed information. 👍

I like the first option way more than the second. This might be a bit restricted
if you want a specific path for the customcss but in my opinion the path default
is where the css files should stay.
