|
|
|
|
The bread and butter of any theme. Below you'll find the layouts included with Minimal Mistakes, what they look like and the type of content they've been built for.
|
|
|
|
## Default Layout
|
|
|
|
The base layout all other layouts inherit from. There's not much to this layout apart from pulling in several `_includes`:
|
|
|
|
* `<head>` elements
|
|
* masthead navigation links
|
|
* {% raw %}`{{ content }}`{% endraw %}
|
|
* page footer
|
|
* scripts
|
|
|
|
**Note:** You won't ever assign this layout directly to a post or page. Instead all other layouts will build off of it by setting `layout: default` in their YAML Front Matter.
|
|
{: .notice--warning}
|
|
|
|
### Layout Based and User-Defined Classes
|
|
|
|
Class names corresponding to each layout are automatically added to the `<body>` element eg. `<body class="layout--single">`.
|
|
|
|
| layout | class name |
|
|
| ---------------- | --------------------------- |
|
|
| archive | `.layout--archive` |
|
|
| archive-taxonomy | `.layout--archive-taxonomy` |
|
|
| single | `.layout--single` |
|
|
| splash | `.layout--splash` |
|
|
| home | `.layout--home` |
|
|
|
|
Using YAML Front Matter you can also assign custom classes to target with CSS or JavaScript. Perfect for "art directed" posts or adding custom styles to specific pages.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
---
|
|
layout: splash
|
|
classes:
|
|
- landing
|
|
- dark-theme
|
|
---
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Outputs:
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<body class="layout--splash landing dark-theme">
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Compress Layout
|
|
|
|
A Jekyll layout that compresses HTML in pure Liquid. To enable add `layout: compress` to `_layouts/default.html`.
|
|
|
|
**Note:** Has been known to mangle markup and break JavaScript... especially if inline `// comments` are present. For this reason it has been disabled by default.
|
|
{: .notice--danger}
|
|
|
|
* [Documentation](http://jch.penibelst.de/)
|
|
|
|
## Single Layout
|
|
|
|
The layout you'll likely use the most --- sidebar and main content combo.
|
|
|
|
**Includes:**
|
|
|
|
* Optional header image with caption
|
|
* Optional header overlay (solid color/image) + text and optional "call to action" button
|
|
* Optional social sharing links module
|
|
* Optional comments module
|
|
* Optional related posts module
|
|
|
|
{% include gallery id="single_layout_gallery" caption="Image header and meta info examples for `single` layout" %}
|
|
|
|
Assign with `layout: single`, or better yet apply as a [Front Matter default]({{ "/docs/configuration/#front-matter-defaults" | absolute_url }}) in `_config.yml`.
|
|
|
|
## Archive Layout
|
|
|
|
Essentially the same as `single` with markup adjustments and some modules removed.
|
|
|
|
**Includes:**
|
|
|
|
* Optional header image with caption
|
|
* Optional header overlay (solid color/image) + text and optional "call to action" button
|
|
* List and grid views
|
|
|
|
<figure>
|
|
<img src="{{ '/assets/images/mm-layout-archive.png' | absolute_url }}" alt="archive layout example">
|
|
<figcaption>List view example.</figcaption>
|
|
</figure>
|
|
|
|
Below are sample archive pages you can easily drop into your project, taking care to rename `permalink`, `title`, or the filename to fit your site. Each is 100% compatible with GitHub Pages.
|
|
|
|
* [All Posts Grouped by Category -- List View][posts-categories]
|
|
* [All Posts Grouped by Tags -- List View][posts-tags]
|
|
* [All Posts Grouped by Year -- List View][posts-year]
|
|
* [All Posts Grouped by Collection -- List View][posts-collection]
|
|
* [Portfolio Collection -- Grid View][portfolio-collection]
|
|
|
|
[posts-categories]: https://github.com/{{ site.repository }}/blob/master/docs/_pages/category-archive.html
|
|
[posts-tags]: https://github.com/{{ site.repository }}/blob/master/docs/_pages/tag-archive.html
|
|
[posts-year]: https://github.com/{{ site.repository }}/blob/master/docs/_pages/year-archive.html
|
|
[posts-collection]: https://github.com/{{ site.repository }}/blob/master/docs/_pages/collection-archive.html
|
|
[portfolio-collection]: https://github.com/{{ site.repository }}/blob/master/docs/_pages/portfolio-archive.html
|
|
|
|
Post and page excerpts are auto-generated by Jekyll which grabs the first paragraph of text. To override this text with something more specific use the following YAML Front Matter:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
excerpt: "A unique line of text to describe this post that will display in an archive listing and meta description with SEO benefits."
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Grid View
|
|
|
|
Adding `type=grid` to the `archive-single` helper will display archive posts in a 4 column grid. For example to create an archive displaying all documents in the portfolio collection:
|
|
|
|
**Step 1:** Create a portfolio archive page (eg. `_pages/portfolio-archive.html`) with the following YAML Front Matter:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
---
|
|
layout: archive
|
|
title: "Portfolio"
|
|
permalink: /portfolio/
|
|
author_profile: false
|
|
---
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Step 2:** Loop over all documents in the portfolio collection and output in a grid:
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
{% raw %}<div class="grid__wrapper">
|
|
{% for post in site.portfolio %}
|
|
{% include archive-single.html type="grid" %}
|
|
{% endfor %}{% endraw %}
|
|
</div>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To produce something like this:
|
|
|
|
<figure>
|
|
<img src="{{ '/assets/images/mm-archive-grid-view-example.jpg' | absolute_url }}" alt="archive grid view example">
|
|
<figcaption>Grid view example.</figcaption>
|
|
</figure>
|
|
|
|
**Note:** More information on using this `_include` can be found under [**Helpers**]({{ "/docs/helpers/" | absolute_url }}).
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
### Taxonomy Archive
|
|
|
|
If you have the luxury of using Jekyll plugins the creation of category and tag archives is greatly simplified. Enable support for the [`jekyll-archives`](https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll-archives) plugin with a few `_config.yml` settings as noted in the [**Configuration**]({{ "/docs/configuration/#archive-settings" | absolute_url }}) section.
|
|
|
|
![archive taxonomy layout example]({{ "/assets/images/mm-layout-archive-taxonomy.png" | absolute_url }})
|
|
|
|
### Home Page
|
|
|
|
A derivative archive page layout to be used as a simple home page. It is built to show a paginated list of recent posts based off of the [pagination settings]({{ "/docs/configuration/#paginate" | absolute_url }}) in `_config.yml`.
|
|
|
|
<figure>
|
|
<img src="{{ '/assets/images/mm-home-post-pagination-example.jpg' | absolute_url }}" alt="paginated home page example">
|
|
<figcaption>Example of a paginated home page showing 5 recent posts.</figcaption>
|
|
</figure>
|
|
|
|
To use create `index.html` at the root of your project and add the following YAML Front Matter:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
---
|
|
layout: home
|
|
---
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then configure pagination in `_config.yml`.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
paginate: 5 # amount of posts to show
|
|
paginate_path: /page:num/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Note:** Jekyll can only paginate a single `index.html` file. If you'd like to paginate more pages (e.g. category indexes) you'll need the help of a custom plugin. For more pagination related settings check the [**Configuration**]({{ "/docs/configuration/#paginate" | absolute_url }}) section.
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
## Splash Page Layout
|
|
|
|
For full-width landing pages that need a little something extra add `layout: splash` to the YAML Front Matter.
|
|
|
|
**Includes:**
|
|
|
|
* Optional header image with caption
|
|
* Optional header overlay (solid color/image) + text and optional "call to action" button
|
|
* Feature blocks (`left`, `center`, and `right` alignment options)
|
|
|
|
![splash page layout example]({{ "/assets/images/mm-layout-splash.png" | absolute_url }})
|
|
|
|
Feature blocks can be assigned and aligned to the `left`, `right`, or `center` with a sprinkling of YAML. For full details on how to use the `feature_row` helper check the [**Content**]({{ "/docs/helpers/" | absolute_url }}) section or review a [sample splash page](https://github.com/{{ site.repository }}/blob/master/docs/_pages/splash-page.md).
|
|
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Headers
|
|
|
|
To add some visual punch to a post or page, a large full-width header image can be included.
|
|
|
|
Be sure to resize your header images. `~1280px` is a good width if you aren't [responsively serving up images](http://alistapart.com/article/responsive-images-in-practice). Through the magic of CSS they will scale up or down to fill the container. If you go with something too small it will look like garbage when upscaled, and something too large will hurt performance.
|
|
|
|
**Please Note:** Paths for image headers, overlays, teasers, [galleries]({{ "/docs/helpers/#gallery" | absolute_url }}), and [feature rows]({{ "/docs/helpers/#feature-row" | absolute_url }}) have changed and require a full path. Instead of just `image: filename.jpg` you'll need to use the full path eg: `image: /assets/images/filename.jpg`. The preferred location is now `/assets/images/`, but can be placed elsewhere or external hosted. This all applies for image references in `_config.yml` and `author.yml` as well.
|
|
{: .notice--danger}
|
|
|
|
![single layout header image example]({{ "/assets/images/mm-single-header-example.jpg" | absolute_url }})
|
|
|
|
Place your images in the `/assets/images/` folder and add the following YAML Front Matter:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
header:
|
|
image: /assets/images/image-filename.jpg
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For externally hosted images include the full image path instead of just the filename:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
header:
|
|
image: http://some-site.com/assets/images/image.jpg
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To include a caption or attribution for the image:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
header:
|
|
image: /assets/images/unsplash-image-1.jpg
|
|
caption: "Photo credit: [**Unsplash**](https://unsplash.com)"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**ProTip:** Captions written in Markdown are supported, so feel free to add links, or style text. Just be sure to wrap it in quotes.
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
### Header Overlay
|
|
|
|
To overlay text on top of a header image you have a few more options:
|
|
|
|
| Name | Description | Default |
|
|
| ---- | ----------- | ------- |
|
|
| **overlay_image** | Header image you'd like to overlay. Same rules as `header.image` from above. | |
|
|
| **overlay_filter** | Color/opacity to overlay on top of the header image eg: `0.5` or `rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.5)`. |
|
|
| **excerpt** | Auto-generated page excerpt is added to the overlay text or can be overridden. | |
|
|
| **cta_label** | Call to action button text label. | `more_label` in UI Text data file |
|
|
| **cta_url** | Call to action button URL. | |
|
|
|
|
With this YAML Front Matter:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
excerpt: "This post should display a **header with an overlay image**, if the theme supports it."
|
|
header:
|
|
overlay_image: /assets/images/unsplash-image-1.jpg
|
|
caption: "Photo credit: [**Unsplash**](https://unsplash.com)"
|
|
cta_label: "More Info"
|
|
cta_url: "https://unsplash.com"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You'd get a header image overlaid with text and a call to action button like this:
|
|
|
|
![single layout header overlay example]({{ "/assets/images/mm-single-header-overlay-example.jpg" | absolute_url }})
|
|
|
|
You also have the option of specifying a solid background-color to use instead of an image.
|
|
|
|
![single layout header overlay with background fill]({{ "/assets/images/mm-single-header-overlay-fill-example.jpg" | absolute_url }})
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
excerpt: "This post should display a **header with a solid background color**, if the theme supports it."
|
|
header:
|
|
overlay_color: "#333"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also specifying the opacity (between `0` and `1`) of a black overlay like so:
|
|
|
|
![transparent black overlay]({{ "/assets/images/mm-header-overlay-black-filter.jpg" | absolute_url }})
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
excerpt: "This post should [...]"
|
|
header:
|
|
overlay_image: /assets/images/unsplash-image-1.jpg
|
|
overlay_filter: 0.5 # same as adding an opacity of 0.5 to a black background
|
|
caption: "Photo credit: [**Unsplash**](https://unsplash.com)"
|
|
cta_label: "More Info"
|
|
cta_url: "https://unsplash.com"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or if you want to do more fancy things, go full rgba:
|
|
|
|
![transparent red overlay]({{ "/assets/images/mm-header-overlay-red-filter.jpg" | absolute_url }})
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
excerpt: "This post should [...]"
|
|
header:
|
|
overlay_image: /assets/images/unsplash-image-1.jpg
|
|
overlay_filter: rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.5)
|
|
caption: "Photo credit: [**Unsplash**](https://unsplash.com)"
|
|
cta_label: "More Info"
|
|
cta_url: "https://unsplash.com"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Sidebars
|
|
|
|
The space to the left of a page's main content is blank by default, but has the ability to show an author profile (name, short biography, social media links), custom content, or both.
|
|
|
|
### Author Profile
|
|
|
|
Add `author_profile: true` to a post or page's YAML Front Matter.
|
|
|
|
![single layout example]({{ "/assets/images/mm-layout-single.png" | absolute_url }})
|
|
|
|
Better yet, enable it with Front Matter Defaults set in `_config.yml`.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
defaults:
|
|
# _posts
|
|
- scope:
|
|
path: ""
|
|
type: posts
|
|
values:
|
|
author_profile: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Note:** To disable the author sidebar profile for a specific post or page, add `author_profile: false` to the YAML Front Matter instead.
|
|
{: .notice--warning}
|
|
|
|
The theme comes pre-built with a selection of links for the most common social media networks. These are all optional and can be [assigned in `_config.yml`]({{ "/docs/configuration/" | absolute_url }}).
|
|
|
|
To add more links you'll need to crack open [`_includes/author-profile.html`](https://github.com/mmistakes/minimal-mistakes/blob/master/_includes/author-profile.html) and make some edits.
|
|
|
|
Inside of `<ul class="author__urls">` you'll find `<li>` elements wrapped in Liquid conditionals. These represent each of the possible links you can currently add to the sidebar.
|
|
|
|
#### Example of Twitter link
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
{% raw %}{% if author.twitter %}
|
|
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/{{ author.twitter }}"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-twitter-square" aria-hidden="true"></i> Twitter</a></li>
|
|
{% endif %}{% endraw %}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To add a new link you'll need three things:
|
|
|
|
1. Destination URL
|
|
2. [Font Awesome icon](http://fontawesome.io/icons/) (`fa-` class)
|
|
3. Label for the link
|
|
|
|
It's up to you if you want to wrap it in a `{% raw %}{% if %} ... {% endif %}{% endraw %}`conditional and add variables to `_config.yml`. If you don't plan to change it then hard-coding the strings is perfectly acceptable.
|
|
|
|
Let's run through how you'd add a new link that points to a Reddit profile. Starting with the three things from above:
|
|
|
|
1. `https://www.reddit.com/user/username`
|
|
2. [`fa-reddit`](http://fontawesome.io/icon/reddit/)
|
|
3. `Reddit`
|
|
|
|
And plug them into the appropriate locations:
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<li><a href="[1]"><i class="fa fa-fw [2]" aria-hidden="true"></i> [3]</a></li>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To end up with:
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<li><a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/username"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-reddit" aria-hidden="true"></i> Reddit</a></li>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
![Reddit link in author profile]({{ "/assets/images/mm-author-profile-reddit-gs.png" | absolute_url }})
|
|
|
|
To add a touch of color to the default black (`#000`) icon a few more steps are necessary.
|
|
|
|
Start by copying [`_utilities.scss`](https://github.com/mmistakes/minimal-mistakes/blob/master/_sass/_utilities.scss) `<site root>/_sass`. Open it up to the icon section (it's near the bottom) and nest a new class beneath `.social-icons` that matches the one used to declare the Font Awesome icon. In our case `.fa-reddit`.
|
|
|
|
Simply add a `color` declaration and the corresponding hex code.
|
|
|
|
```scss
|
|
.social-icons {
|
|
|
|
.fa-reddit {
|
|
color: #ff4500;
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
![Reddit link in author profile with color]({{ "/assets/images/mm-author-profile-reddit-color.png" | absolute_url }})
|
|
|
|
**ProTip:** For bonus points you can add it as a Sass `$variable` that you set in [`_variables.scss`](https://github.com/mmistakes/minimal-mistakes/blob/master/_sass/_variables.scss) like the other ["brand" colors](http://brandcolors.net/). You'll need to add this file to `/_sass/` as well if you're using the Ruby Gem version of the theme.
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
**Please please please** don't submit [pull requests]({{ "/docs/contributing/" | absolute_url }}) adding in support for "missing" social media links. I'm trying to keep things down to the minimum (hence the theme's name) and have no interest in merging such PRs :expressionless:.
|
|
{: .notice--warning}
|
|

|
### Custom Sidebar Content
|
|
|
|
Blocks of content can be added by using the following under `sidebar`:
|
|
|
|
| Name | Description |
|
|
| ---- | ----------- |
|
|
| **title** | Title or heading. |
|
|
| **image** | Image path placed in `/images/` folder or an external URL. |
|
|
| **image_alt** | Alternate description for image. |
|
|
| **text** | Text. Markdown is allowed. |
|
|
|
|
Multiple blocks can also be added by following the example below:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
sidebar:
|
|
- title: "Title"
|
|
image: http://placehold.it/350x250
|
|
image_alt: "image"
|
|
text: "Some text here."
|
|
- title: "Another Title"
|
|
text: "More text here."
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<figure>
|
|
<img src="{{ '/assets/images/mm-custom-sidebar-example.jpg' | absolute_url }}" alt="custom sidebar content example">
|
|
<figcaption>Example of custom sidebar content added as YAML Front Matter.</figcaption>
|
|
</figure>
|
|
|
|
**Note:** Custom sidebar content added to a post or page's YAML Front Matter will appear below the author profile if enabled with `author_profile: true`.
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
### Custom Sidebar Navigation Menu
|
|
|
|
To create a sidebar menu[^sidebar-menu] similar to the one found in the theme's documentation pages you'll need to modify a `_data` file and some YAML Front Matter.
|
|
|
|
[^sidebar-menu]: Sidebar menu supports 1 level of nested links.
|
|
|
|
<figure>
|
|
<img src="{{ '/assets/images/mm-custom-sidebar-nav.jpg' | absolute_url }}" alt="sidebar navigation example">
|
|
<figcaption>Custom sidebar navigation menu example.</figcaption>
|
|
</figure>
|
|
|
|
To start, add a new key to `_data/navigation.yml`. This will be referenced later in via YAML Front Matter so keep it short and memorable. In the case of the theme's documentation menu I used `docs`.
|
|
|
|
**Sample sidebar menu links:**
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
docs:
|
|
- title: Getting Started
|
|
children:
|
|
- title: "Quick-Start Guide"
|
|
url: /docs/quick-start-guide/
|
|
- title: "Structure"
|
|
url: /docs/structure/
|
|
- title: "Installation"
|
|
url: /docs/installation/
|
|
- title: "Upgrading"
|
|
url: /docs/upgrading/
|
|
|
|
- title: Customization
|
|
children:
|
|
- title: "Configuration"
|
|
url: /docs/configuration/
|
|
- title: "Navigation"
|
|
url: /docs/navigation/
|
|
- title: "UI Text"
|
|
url: /docs/ui-text/
|
|
- title: "Authors"
|
|

Now you can pull these links into any page by adding the following YAML Front Matter.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
sidebar:
|
|
nav: "docs"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Note:** `nav: "docs"` references the `docs` key in `_data/navigation.yml` so make sure they match.
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
If you're adding a sidebar navigation menu to several pages the use of Front Matter Defaults is a better option. You can define them in `_config.yml` to avoid adding it to every page or post.
|
|
|
|
**Sample sidebar nav default:**
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
defaults:
|
|
# _docs
|
|
- scope:
|
|
path: ""
|
|
type: docs
|
|
values:
|
|
sidebar:
|
|
nav: "docs"
|
|
```
|

## Social Sharing Links
|
|
|
|
The `single` layout has an option to enable social links at the bottom of posts for sharing on Twitter, Facebook, Google+, and LinkedIn. Similar to the links found in the author sidebar, the theme ships with defaults for the most common social networks.
|
|
|
|
![default social share link buttons]({{ "/assets/images/mm-social-share-links-default.png" | absolute_url }})
|
|
|
|
To enable these links add `share: true` to a post or page's YAML Front Matter or use a [default](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/configuration/#front-matter-defaults) in your `_config.yml` to apply more globally.
|
|
|
|
If you'd like to add, remove, or change the order of these default links you can do so by editing [`_includes/social-share.html`](https://github.com/mmistakes/minimal-mistakes/blob/master/_includes/social-share.html).
|
|
|
|
Let's say you wanted to replace the Google+ button with a Reddit one. Simply replace the HTML with the following:
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
{% raw %}<a href="https://www.reddit.com/submit?url={{ page.url | absolute_url }}&title={{ page.title }}" class="btn" title="{{ site.data.ui-text[site.locale].share_on_label }} Reddit"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-reddit" aria-hidden="true"></i><span> Reddit</span></a>{% endraw %}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The important parts to change are:
|
|
|
|
1. Share point URL *eg. `https://www.reddit.com/submit?url=`
|
|
2. Link `title`
|
|
3. [Font Awesome icon](http://fontawesome.io/icons/) (`fa-` class)
|
|
4. Link label
|
|
|
|
![Reddit social share link button]({{ "/assets/images/mm-social-share-links-reddit-gs.png" | absolute_url }})
|
|
|
|
To change the color of the button use one of the built in [utility classes]({{ "/docs/utility-classes/#buttons" | absolute_url }}). Or you can create a new button class to match whatever color you want.
|
|
|
|
Under the `$social` color map in `assets/_scss/_buttons.scss` simply add a name (this will be appened to `btn--`) that matches the new button class. In our case `reddit` ~> `.btn--reddit`.
|
|
|
|
```scss
|
|
$social:
|
|
(facebook, $facebook-color),
|
|
(twitter, $twitter-color),
|
|
(google-plus, $google-plus-color),
|
|
(linkedin, $linkedin-color);
|
|
(reddit, #ff4500;)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**ProTip:** For bonus points you can add it as a Sass `$variable` that you set in `_variables.scss` like the other ["brand" colors](http://brandcolors.net/).
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
Add the new `.btn--reddit` class to the `<a>` element from earlier, [compile `main.css`]({{ "/docs/stylesheets/" | absolute_url }}) and away you go.
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
{% raw %}<a href="https://www.reddit.com/submit?url={{ page.url | absolute_url }}&title={{ page.title }}" class="btn btn--reddit" title="{{ site.data.ui-text[site.locale].share_on_label }} Reddit"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-reddit" aria-hidden="true"></i><span> Reddit</span></a>{% endraw %}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
![Reddit social share link button]({{ "/assets/images/mm-social-share-links-reddit-color.png" | absolute_url }})
