Description

For the "real" tabs in the sidebar - Categories, Tags, Archives, About - can we change the tabs.url so that it doesn't include /tabs/? For example, instead of /tabs/categories it would just be /categories

I'm having trouble figuring out where the tabs.url is coming from: https://github.com/cotes2020/jekyll-theme-chirpy/blob/master/_includes/sidebar.html#L42

Thank you!

If you want to change the output path, see permalinks.

The tabs are implemented using Jekyll collections feature

Ah, thank you. I use permalinks on all my posts, but didn't even think to use them on these files. Duh.

Thanks for making such a nice theme! I love 3 column themes - but there aren't that many of them! Yours is very slick and well-designed.

Sorry - I have another related question, if you have time to answer it:

I would like one of my Tabs to be a link to a Category page. One of my categories is more important than the others, and so I would like to highlight it in the Tabs.

For example: I want to add a tab called Music that links to /categories/music/

What is the best way to do that?

If I create a music.md file in the _tabs folder, and give it

---
layout: category
title: Music
icon: fas fa-music
order: 4
permalink: /categories/music/
---

I think the layout line is the problem, but I'm not sure of the answer. Thanks.
