Modern, fast and configurable Jekyll theme with some tricks up it's sleeve.

dactl's Issues

Date Formatting

How can I go about editing the way dates format to the American system Month/Day/Year?

Undesired class="highlight"> appearing on blog posts

I just forked the repo and this error of a class="highlight"> keeps appearing every time code or any other highlighted text is on the body of a post.
Look:

Switching theme presets

Is there something in the _config.yml file I can add to easily display the Night Theme?

no gemfile

There's no gemfile and that makes it hard to figure out which version of jekyll the demo uses. This omission is particularly inconveniencing because the gem rouge keeps erroring out on github pages.

Hero overlay colors

Struggling to find where these values are set. I'd like to be able to define additional colors than just red, green, etc. Any pointers?

Issues editing theme.js

I am having trouble adjusting the css for the theme. I have changed the --text-color and --link-color to lime in theme.js and both are still appearing as black whenever I load the website. I have tried restarting the server and clearing the cache. Do you have any suggestions?

const LightTheme = {
  '--bg-color': '#eee',
  '--text-color': '#8BC34A',
  '--text-color-light': '#828282',
  '--link-color': '#8BC34A',
  '--metadata-color': '#999',
  '--post-title': '#313131',
  '--code-bg-color': '#fff',
  '--code-border': '#f5f5f5',
  '--table-border-color': '#e5e5e5',
  '--table-header-color': '#fefefe',
  '--shadow-color': 'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1)',
  '--invert-logo-color': 'invert(0)',
  themeName: 'LightTheme'
}

I believe I followed the instructions according to the README

Theme switcher
Theme switcher is made in vanilla Javascript and works using CSS Variables. Values (colors) specified for each variable are injected into :root on every page load.
User theme choice is saved in browser's Local Storage and is persistent through sessions.

You can edit the colors of both Light and Dark themes in theme.js file found in _assets/js/.

open source license?

There doesn't appear to be any kind of license attached to this work, which could create legal troubles for site creators who build their sites off of your source code. If you just want this to be available to everybody, consider using the CC0 license to make it totally free for everybody to use; otherwise, you could use the MIT license if you want to make people attribute the code.

Thanks!

Posts have a display problem

The posts are not displaying properly, with the class "class="highlight">".

For example : https://melangue.github.io/dactl/posts/yaml-frontmatter

Please fix this sniffet issue..

I try fix it but I can't ... I wan't use this...

Code snippet issue.

Code snippets don't work correctly. It has "class="highlight">" above the code, and everything that goes under the code snippet looks like part of it.

in .md files end of the code block is not recognized properly

If I use the code block with

~~~python
# python codes... (also when i replace ~~~ with ```, the results are same)
~~~

and then write text, the text are within the code block. The example shown in the demo also has this problem (https://melangue.github.io/dactl//posts/example-content). As you can see the 'List' and the text below are part of the codeblock

Appears the Gemfile is missing some plugins defined in the _config.yml

I was building my site on Netlify even though it will be deployed to GitHub pages and I ran into a lot of missing gems in the Gemfile.

config.yml

plugins:
  - jekyll-paginate
  - jekyll-sitemap
  - jekyll-github-metadata
  - jekyll-mentions
  - jekyll-redirect-from
  - jemoji

The plugins snippet from my fixed but maybe overkill Gemfile

group :jekyll_plugins do
  gem "jekyll-feed"
  gem "jekyll-paginate"
  gem "jekyll-sitemap"
  gem "jekyll-mentions"
  gem "jekyll-github-metadata"
  gem "jekyll-redirect-from"
  gem "jemoji"
end

This allowed me to build and preview on Netlify.
