Well then….I guess the last post didn’t remain relevant for long.
A New Theme I wanted to play around with theming this website, and I decided to go poking around on https://themes.gohugo.io/. I poked around at a few themes and decided to land on a theme called Poison by Luke Orth. A link to the theme github is on the side bar.
I chose this theme for a few reaons. First, I really enjoyed the layout.
I spent a good chunk of last night playing around with trying to get an author, bio, and pic to appear on my posts. I have not had much of a reason to play with templates, and the tutorial I followed injected their own preferences while failing to offer much of a discussion on how to do things. So I figured I would write up what I did in case I need to do it again with a new template/theme or at a later date.
A New Venue for My Learning I’ve had this webspace for nearly a year and I’ve done absolutely nothing with it. No longer! I was motivated briefly to update my domain on bluesky, but I had not added anything to this website. So I decided to start diving into static website generators like I had wanted to for a long while.
I initially started with Pelican, but I got annoyed with the limited documentation on how to get the theme to actually play nice with my webhosts insistence that all files go into the “public_html” folder.
