How to add a theme?

[ralsina]

I can zip it and upload it. I will do that tonight if you are ok with it. BTW, it looks awesome!

I just test it with english, not yet modify it to support multi language.
It will take a few days.

Ok, ping me when you want it uploaded and I'll do it immediately.

Hi, ralsina, I have updated the theme for 3.0.1

But, there is something that I can't implement.

for example, I want to add a list of pages into sidebar, but I don't known how to add a "pages" variable into base.tmpl.

I hope I can add "prevlink" and "nextlink" into post.tmpl , but I don't known how to do that.

thanks!

Usually the contents of the sidebar are determined by the user's
sidebar_links config option.

This is missing, and it wouldbe great to have! Can you open a separate
issue asking for it?

I want to use the "sidebar_links" as "Blogroll", and use the "pages" title and link as navigation.

Besides, I just can find the pages in "Archives" and "Tags".

issue asking for it?

ok, I have did that.

Sorry, I dropped the ball on these. Looks like the way to get themes in Nikola is to put them in the tree, because otherwise, I suck at helping to keep them up to date.

On the other hand, the churn in the themes should be much lower from now on.
