Add custom index.htmls #153

Closed fxfactorial closed 8 years ago

fxfactorial commented 8 years ago

On master:

I thought that just adding a root directory with a index.html that that would be enough to create a separate link, (yes I did add the link to the root index.html.), but it isn't and I get a 404.

What do I need to do to create custom paths/index.htmls? My use case is I have generated code documentation that I want to code on my github pages as well.

Sorry that I didn't understand you well, do you want to customize index pages for categories? then you need to copy the original theme mdo and customize the template category-index.mustache, hope that helps.

fxfactorial commented 8 years ago

I have right now this Top level link called OCamldocs http://hyegar.com but it is 404ing right now. When you click on it i want it go to a page with say n number of link, where each link is a sub folder which contains an index.html.

sillykelvin commented 8 years ago

http://hyegar.com/OCamlDocs/index.html, the page is OK, seems you need to make the cases right, otherwise the page cannot be found...

for sub folder contains an index.html, you can customize the URI option in org file:

#+URI:         /OCamlDocs/sub1/sub2

Ah! That's where it was, I couldn't find it.

Where do I add that #+URI ? On source's index.org?

sillykelvin commented 8 years ago

Yeah, in your org source file, the #+URI option will decide where the generated html goes.

fxfactorial commented 8 years ago

Okay but I mean this is just a collection of html files, they are already generated. Its not like I have a org file to generate these. I just want to host already existing HTML files.

sillykelvin commented 8 years ago

Oh, that is beyond org-page's ability, I think you can manually commit these html files to master branch, and then write an index.org file contains the links to these pages, and then convert it into an index.html with org-page.

I've been trying this but with little success. Is there really no easy way to do this, how much effort would it take to add this ability.
