Document adding a CV download button

[HughP]

In my field, there is often still a need for a PDF version of one's CV/Resume. I am wondering how we might elegantly integrate such a feature into Hugo-Academic.

I have been working on my wife's CV/website and have implemented this design but wonder if there are other ideas/attempts out there.

I had to go through the task of creating my own SVG font and adding CSS to overide.css to get it to work. And the links are hard coded, instead of being set under [[params.social]] or under the personal information section of the config.toml Also I had to hard code the link in the contact section. It would be nice if this were an optional location and would automatically come from data already in config.toml.... I am personally curious how these variables in contact.md are set, I can't seem to find the path for making more/new variables and having the template engine set the variables. If someone wanted to make a tutorial, or skype or point me to some examples in hugo docs I'd be happy to code this myself. But right now I'm stuck at the HTML level.

Nice. +1.

I personally added my CV to the navigation menu.

Academicons 1.8.5 has a CV icon (https://jpswalsh.github.io/academicons/) but Hugo-academic is on 1.8.1. Is there a way to update the package version?

[HughP]

Is that CV icon for a CV service?

@HughP I don't think so. It's just a simple icon to represent the CV.

FWIW, one simple and -- IMHO -- elegant alternative solution is just to add a header entry. See my own homepage for an example. In the config.toml, you just create a new entry in the menu items list, and use a relative link to the location of your CV file, like this:

# Navigation Links
#   To link a homepage widget, specify the URL as a hash `#` followed by the filename of the
#     desired widget in your `content/home/` folder.
#   The weight parameter defines the order that the links will appear in.

[[menu.main]]
  name = "Home"
  url = "#about"
  weight = 1

[[menu.main]]
  name = "Publications"
  url = "#publications"
  weight = 2

[[menu.main]]
   name = "Resume"
   url = "/docs/cv-glc.pdf"
   weight = 2.5

[[menu.main]]
  name = "News"
  url = "#news"
  weight = 3

@glciampaglia thanks for the suggestion but this method for me works only locally, when I upload on my gitlab page the link to the pdf is broken. Did you put the file cv-glc.pdf under /static/files?

[glciampaglia]

Yes, correct. /docs/cv-glc.pdf maps to static/docs/cv-glc.pdf

I deploy on my web host directly using rsync, so I cannot tell you whether gitlab requires a different setting, but essentially it should follow whatever rules are needed to deploy static files.

Actually, I use the academicicons CV suggested by @rahmati It works quite nicely with the current version of Hugo-academic.
