Best practice: CMS Netlify or Github repositories?

Hi there!

Themes can be problematic but we have an article about how to set it up here:

I’d suggest that for a permanent solution to your theme situation.

Can you give us more details about your CMS question? I use this setup with hugo + CMS if you want to look at mine:

shift-org/shift-docs/blob/main/site/static/admin/config.yml

backend:
  name: git-gateway
  branch: main # Branch to update 

# publish_mode: editorial_workflow

media_folder: "site/static/images/uploads" # Media files will be stored in the repo under site/static/images/uploads
public_folder: "/images/uploads" # The src attribute for uploaded media will begin with /images/uploads

collections:
  - name: "pages" # Used in routes, e.g., /admin/collections/pages
    label: "Pages" # Used in the UI
    folder: "site/content/pages/" # The path to the folder where the documents are stored
    create: true # Allow users to create new documents in this collection
    slug: "{{slug}}" # Filename template: title.md
    fields: # The fields for each document, usually in front matter
      - {label: "Title", name: "title", widget: "string"}
      - {label: "Page #", name: "weight", widget: number}
      - {name: "menu", widget: "hidden"}
      - {label: "Body", name: "body", widget: "markdown"}
