Post Front-matter example

The following is an example and description of the article Front-matter, and all content is not required.But we still suggest you write the value of title and date.

top: true
# If you want to set the reading verification password for the post, 
# you can set the password value, which must be encrypted with SHA256 to prevent others from seeing it.
password: 8d969eef6ecad3c29a3a629280e686cf0c3f5d5a86aff3ca12020c923adc6c92

Note:

1. post's featured piature will take remainder if not writing the img property,and chose the featured picture of theme to let all of post's picture have their own characteristics.
2. The value of date should try to ensure that each article is unique, because Gitalk and Gitment recognize id in this topic are uniquely identified by the value of date.
3. If you want to set the ability to read the verification password for the article, you should not only set the value of the password with SHA256 encryption in Front-matter, but also activate the configuration in the theme _config.yml.

I think everyone should have their own style and feature of blog。if you are not satisfiled with functions and theme color,you can modify by yourself,and more free functions and deatil need to be modified by modify source code when it is hard to be finished in _config.yml.

modeing theme color

Search .bg-color to modify background color in /source/css/matery.css in theme file：

/* The overall background color, including navigation, mobile navigation, footer, tab, etc.. */
.bg-color {
    background-image: linear-gradient(to right, #4cbf30 0%, #0f9d58 100%);
}

/* The color of the text with the same background color is only used in one place on the front page. You can also apply it to other places.*/
.text-color {
    color: #0f9d58 !important;
}

@-webkit-keyframes rainbow {
   /* Dynamically switch background colors. */
}

@keyframes rainbow {
    /* Dynamically switch background colors. */
}

Modify banner picture and post's featured pictures

You can change banner pictures in /source/medias/banner as you like .Theme code can switch dynamically every day and just need 7 pictures.If you master JavaScript,you can change it to your favorite swithing logic,such as Random switching.The code of switching banneris in <script></script> of /layout/_partial/bg-cover.ejsfile.

$('.bg-cover').css('background-image', 'url(/medias/banner/' + new Date().getDay() + '.jpg)');

There are 24 featured pictures in /source/medias/featureimages,you can add or delete,and modify it in _config.yml at the sametime.
