Some suggestions #409

Closed ashidamana closed 6 years ago

ashidamana commented 7 years ago

Today I tried to use jekyll-admin,but found something can be optimized. I think it is convenient to add some default metadata field which are frequently used,such as layout,category,tags,description etc. Just as the picture says.

ashmaroli commented 7 years ago

While I agree layout: being a default field is helpful as it finds use in almost every page, the remaining ones are only occasionally used by majority of the users..

microSoftware commented 7 years ago

+1 for the default layout:post metadata.

mertkahyaoglu commented 7 years ago

Jekyll Admin supports front matter defaults. Is this what you are suggesting?

mertkahyaoglu commented 7 years ago

If so, you should be fine by adding this to your _config.yml;

defaults:
  -
    scope:
      path: ""
      type: "posts"
    values:
      layout: "post"

and Jekyll Admin will display defaults in the metafields for posts.

ashmaroli commented 7 years ago

@mertkahyaoglu What OP means is that just like *New and *Edit views have title and path fields ready for user input, likewise the interface should also provide a select component for layout key fed with array of layouts currently used in site

mertkahyaoglu commented 7 years ago

@jubayed There should appear a datepicker when you set the key name date.
