The Daily

The Daily is a theme that features bold chunky sans-serifs, heavy border elements, a bright color accent, and an overlay navigation.

Customizing the Theme

For those dipping their toes into customizing sites with CSS, the CSS Editor module allows site administrators to write style overrides.

For advanced CSS and Sass users, The Daily provides variables for easily customizing typography, spacing, and colors in asset/sass/_base.scss.

Sass Tasks

Run these commands within the theme's root directory.

• npm start: While this task runs, it watches for changes to sass files and recompiles the CSS.
• gulp css: This is the one-off task for compiling the current Sass/CSS.
  • gulp css:watch: This task watches for changes in the Sass, then compiles the CSS.

Theme Configuration

• Logo: Upload an image asset to use as a logo in place of a text site title.
• Banner: Upload an image asset to use a banner that sits above the main content area of every view.
• Banner height: The maximum banner image height in pixels.
• Banner height: The maximum banner image height in pixels at narrower viewport widths.
• Banner height for mobile devices: The maximum banner image height in pixels at narrower viewport widths.
• Banner position: Where to anchor the banner image within its container: centered, stuck to the top, or stuck to the bottom.

Resource Page Configuration

Omeka S 4.0 introduced configurable resource pages. The Daily supports block configuration for items, item sets, and media show pages. Each of those views contains 3 configurable regions:

• Full-width main: This is intended to be a primary content area that spans the full width of a page.
• Main with sidebar: This is a version of the primary content area that expects to sit alongside a single right sidebar.
• Right sidebar: This is a sidebar that sits to the right of "main with sidebar".
