Making the theme "Hugo" Friendly #12

Closed dudil closed 3 years ago

dudil commented 6 years ago

Hi @SteveLane ,

Thank you for this project - It is very good skin in terms of design and simplicity. However, the current way to setup the themes is strictly through config.toml which is not very Hugo friendly (adding text / items is really hard work).

I already modified that largely on my own project, but this will break the current implementation. Let me know if you wish me to create a pull request or just preferred me to keep my own branch.

Cheers, Dudi

Hi Dudi,

I'd love to take a look at what you've done, so a pull request would be great.

@Dudil Did you fix the blogging capability on your project?

dudil commented 6 years ago

Sorry - I've moved into another theme but might be still to help. @carneybill - can you elaborate what blogging capability are you looking for?

carneybill commented 6 years ago

@dudil On the Hugo site (https://themes.gohugo.io/hugo-icon/), it mentioned: "add blogging capability" under To Do. I'm new but can't figure out how to create a blogging tab/new post. I was unsure if @SteveLane or you might have addressed it?

SteveLane commented 6 years ago

@carneybill I haven't addressed it yet, but it would be useful, so I opened it as a to do. Here's what I think would need to be done:

[ ] add another partial for latest blog posts
[ ] apply appropriate css classes - I think using something like the classes in the mission partial would work
[ ] paginate the blog posts within that single page section
[ ] create new single blog post template
[ ] link each item to that single post

So, there's a bit of infrastructure needed before blogging can be added. (I didn't set the theme up with the intention of blogging straight away).

@SteveLane - Even though I’ve moved to another theme, I’ll be happy to assist. I have solid understanding of Hugo and can help with building it up. Will need more help with CSS etc. Also would love to add support for localization.

Is that fine?

SteveLane commented 6 years ago

@dudil for sure! If you want to help out, that'd be great. This is not a high priority for myself.
