By default it shows the latest five posts, but you can set this
property in your config to override it:
[params.sidebar]
num_recent_posts = 7
Still no way to disable it, as I don't understand golang's HTML
templating stuff yet. The Hugo docs are a bit confusing, but it
seems like conditionals are a bit tricky because both false and
0 return a boolean false... hmm.

Add something like the following to your config to enable the about
block in the sidebar:
[params.sidebar]
about = "*My site* is really cool. Adios!"
Can be formatted in Markdown.
I need to figure out how to generate a list of posts grouped by
month, ie "August 2016", as well as a list template to show the
posts for each month for when the user clicks the link.
The HTML5 aside tag is for content that is tangentially related to
the content around the aside tag, but is considered separate from
that content. Section tags are semantic HTML5 elements that inform
computers about content structure, as opposed to div tags which
can be used for structure OR style.

Partials are nice, but blocks are a better base construct. Right
now there is basically only layouts/_default/baseof.html that is
doing most of the work.

I think this should be an H1 since it's in a standalone article tag
but for some reason WordPress' latest themes use an H2, so I'll use
one too until I go read the W3C docs.
Set the following param in your config:
[params.sidebar]
num_recent_posts = 5
Alternatively, delete or comment out the variable to disable showing
of recents. I should probably allow setting it to "0" to disable.
