A port of Clean Blog by Start Bootstrap for JBake.
Fully functional out of the box. No need to modify templates for trivial customization. Individual specific customization goes in jbake.properties
Post snippet instead of full post in index. The snippet is taken as the first paragraph (<p> element) from post body
coverimage per post to change background
Navbar auto lists pages using page.title and page.uri
Disqus comments and Google Analytics
Share your blog on Twitter and Facebook with clickable image link using Twitter Cards and Facebook Cards
Github, Twitter, Linkedin links at the footer
Tag list with links to tag page in index and post
Uses thymeleaf the way it was intended to be used. This means you can preview the theme even before baking it
No pagination support as yet. If you set index.paginate=true in jbake.properties you’ll have multiple index files in the sequence index.html, index0.html … by JBake but the theme doesn’t do anything to link these pages
Not tested with `noExtensionUri`s. If you use Github Pages, a folder with index.html will be treated like an extensionless uri
Currently nothing links to the archive page.
Navbar auto lists all pages by default. This is fine if you have few important pages like about and contact but if there are a lot of pages that are not top level, but can be reached from other pages, then it becomes messy. I plan to introduce custom metadata for indicating whether a page should be pinned or not
Clone or Download this theme from github. I assume you are familiar with JBake and have installed it on your system.
If you already have a blog
replace your templates folder with this one.
Remove your earlier theme specific files from assets.
copy files from my assets folder to your assets folder.
Copy contents from my jbake.properties file to your jbake.properties file. Replace overlapping entries.
This theme sets output folder to docs by default. |
If you wish to start from scratch with this theme:
Remove unwanted files like README, LICENSE, nbproject. this step is optional though
modify user/blog specific fields in jbake.properties
Delete sample files from contents folder, or modify them to start with your content
Finally jbake -b to render your site.
