Pretty sure this is via the mkdocs-material
plugin and the social
section of the mkdocs.yml
file. I have never tried tweaking this myself.
Yes that's correct but I've not been able to get it to work. There's something with material insiders that would do it but I think it's paid and would make contributions harder. By default it seems to use the primary colour but I've tried setting it to green and it won't change the preview image
The change I've implemented in #223 seems to fix this? At least it fixes the cache that gets generated when serving the docs, assume that's the same. I set it to the mid green rather than the dark green so the logo shows up.
I've checked out the branch and when I go to http://127.0.0.1:8000/assets/images/social/index.png
it still displays as purple. I'm happy to merge through, maybe it's something about my local machine...
Yeah still all purple on https://www.opengraph.xyz/url/https%3A%2F%2Ftildagon.badge.emfcamp.org%2F
That same URL displays as green for me, strange! Maybe the cache needs to update?
That's so odd. if you inspect the html source on the deployed site, can you search for og:image
and tell me what URL it goes to?
for me that's
https://tildagon.badge.emfcamp.org/assets/images/social/index.png
Yep, same URL for me, and fetching it shows up as purple. Is there a way to force the deployed site to clear its cache of files and rebuild the images? I'd have thought it would do that automatically when being redeployed but maybe not?
Hosted on GitHub Pages, I don't think we can do anything. I guess we'll wait a bit and see if it changes.
To get it to work locally I deleted the .cache folder and that forced mkdocs to rebuild everything, so it feels like this must be the same issue.
I can see it now! I spend like 2h yesterday changing settings and wondering why nothign was changing
There was a cache being created in the github action. I managed to delete it and it's now working. Thank you so much for fixing it and finding the cache folder!
done some investigation with mkdocs but unsure how to change
