Social media links¶ ↑
To add links to your social sites (linkedin, twitter, etc) below the bio, create a file named social.yml
in your _data
folder (which you may not have created yet). Inside it, follow the following format:
- title: Twitter url: http://twitter.com/lllychen - title: Github url: http://github.com/lllychen/lou # and so on...
Date format¶ ↑
The default format for dates is %Y-%m-%d
, which displays January 2nd, 2017 as 2017-01-02
. However, you can customize it according to this in _config.yml
such as follows:
date_format: "%Y-%m-%d"
Photo sets¶ ↑
This site is organized by sets of photos, which are each essentially a Jekyll post. To add a new one, create a new post and in the front matter, follow the example below:
layout: post title: name of your project or the like photos: unique-id-for-your-photo: path/to or url
The unique ID for each photo will be important as it is needed for the lightbox to work properly.
