Contributions

In general, there are no strict rules for contributing, only that your code is clean and well structured.

For bugs:

• To merge a fix, you can simply open a pull request.
• To report one that is not yet fixed, open an issue.

Feature requests:

• Always open an issue first before implementing and proposing a new feature. This is only so I can make sure the theme doesn't become bloated with too many features. This way, I can determine if an idea is something that makes sense for the theme's design.

If in doubt, you can always ask me on Twitter: @jeffxmn

flex's Issues

Responsive supprt

Hi,

I was recently searching for a nice Jekyll theme for a passion project, and yours seemed perfect.

I wanted to let you know that the only thing that prevented me using it was the way that the expanding the menu (in mobile view) squashes the content in an ugly way.

I'd fix it myself, but I don't really have time at the moment, so I figured I'd do the next best thing: pass the feedback to you.

Title overlaps itself on small screens

1. Go to http://the-development.github.io/flex/
2. Resize browser making it very narrow.
3. Title "EXAMPLE POST" is splitted into 2 lines due to narrow screen. But "POST" overlaps "EXAMPLE" creating bad visual experience.

I fixed on my website adding following css style:

#title {
  line-height: 1em;
}

better printing support

The theme does not print well. The menus and the cover image should disappear when printing via css.
