User Guide

Post items and pages

Generally speaking, a post file in source/_posts or a page file always begins with a header in the following format.

---
title: 吾輩は猫である
intro: 吾輩は猫である。名前はまだない。
featured_image: neko.jpg
date: 2018-11-11 12:00:00
tags: 
    - Novel
    - Japanese
---

Maybe you've already noticed that there're two new fields named intro and featured_image. These two optional fields are used to optimize post items' appearance.

Intro

If intro is set, the value will be used as abstract instead of the automatically truncated one. Also, by editing the _config.yml in theme Journal.'s directory, you are able to control the truncation length for all articles.

...
truncate_len: 60
...

Featured image

If featured_image presents, the image specified will show up in the post item, also, the feature image will show up in the detailed post's or page's page. In this example, the neko.jpg is placed in the asset folder for the post or page.

New in 2.0.3: featured_image can now be an URL starts with http:// or https://.

Title and subtitle

The title area of the theme Journal. consists two parts — the title and the subtitle.

Edit the _config.yml in theme Journal.'s directory:

sidebar_title: "Journal."
sidebar_subtitle: "隻言片語<br>於此匯聚"

In sidebar_title and sidebar_subtitle, HTML is supported as the example above demonstrated.

Archives

By default, the 'Archives' entry will not appear in the navigation section. To show the 'Archives' in the navigation section, you will need to enable the archives explicitly in the theme-level _config.yml.

archives: true

The generation of archives will be done by hexo-generator-archive. So please ensure that it has been added as a dependency in your package.json.

RSS

By adding the following line to the _config.yml in theme Journal.'s directory, an RSS entry will show up in the navigation drawer which points to the location specified.

rss: atom

The plugin hexo-generator-feed is usually required for this function.

Commenting

The theme Journal. natively supports two commenting services – Livere and Disqus. To enable commenting, you just need to add one of the following lines to the _config.yml in theme Journal.'s directory.

livere: [data-uid] on livere.com
disqus: [short_name] on disqus.com

If two fields are both left non-empty, two comment boxes will appear. To fix this, just leave one of the two fields empty.

Disabling commenting

You are free to choose whether or not to disable commenting on some posts or pages at all times as you like it since you're the owner.

You can disable commenting just by adding one line of code in the header of a post or page file.

---
...
no_comments: true
...
---

Page entries

When a page is created, its entry will automatically show up in the global navigation drawer on the left side of the screen.

Syntax highlighting

The theme Journal. natively supports syntax highlighting. However, the plugin hexo-prism-plugin is required. You can install it by running yarn add hexo-prism-plugin or npm i --save hexo-prism-plugin at your Hexo root directory.

Table of contents

With the plugin hexo-toc, the theme Journal. natively supports showing the table of contents in an article. You can install it by running yarn add hexo-toc or npm i --save hexo-toc at your Hexo root directory.

Then, you can insert <!-- toc --> after the header of the post file to enable table of contents.
