Feature/twitter #91

Closed iparask closed 5 years ago

iparask commented 5 years ago

Adding Twitter handle, changing news to blog.

The new homepage features a Twitter stream after the contact information. This will automatically update with our tweets! We can add more.

The news page became a blog and went to the end of the list. The homepage will also feature the latest blog entries after the twitter handle.

Fixes #54

I get the following error when trying this locally with jekyll serve:

  Liquid Exception: Liquid error (line 1): Cannot sort a null object. in blog.md
             Error: Liquid error (line 1): Cannot sort a null object.
             Error: Run jekyll build --trace for more information.

When I try it with jekyll build --trace everything works...

The error you are seeing is coming from line 6 of blogs.md where things get sorted. It seems like it does not find any _blog folder to sort. The _news folder is renamed to _blog. Can you check that all these hold.

Also make sure that the _site folder is deleted. This is the compiled site and I am not sure if it leaves anything behind when the site gets recompiled.

Thanks, that did the trick. Once we converge on headings, we should probably have a first pass at formatting the hoe page. At the moment, the font of the twitter feed is huge and the headings are small. What do you think?

I made the widget a bit smaller. Can you please check? I definitely agree with you!

I started to iterate on the scss of the site but it is proving to be a fairly long endeavor. Should we merge as it is and then focus on the styles?

iparask commented 5 years ago

Yes, since that will bring it closer to what we want. Also it brings twitter and closes the news ticket. The style of the widget may not be perfect, but we have functionality and we may get some followers. Right now only AndreL is following our Twitter
