Pelican Themes
##############
This repository contains themes for Pelican. Feel free to clone, add your own
theme, and submit a pull request. It's community-managed!
Using Themes
############
These instructions assume you have already completed the `Getting Started`_
guide, have a working site, and would now like to apply a non-default theme.
.. _Getting Started: http://docs.getpelican.com/en/latest/getting_started.html
First, choose a location to hold your themes. For this example, we'll use the
directory ``~/pelican-themes``, but yours could be different. Clone the
``pelican-themes`` repository to that location on your local machine:
.. code-block:: sh
git clone --recursive https://github.com/getpelican/pelican-themes ~/pelican-themes
Now you should have your ``pelican-themes`` repository stored at
``~/pelican-themes/``.
To use one of the themes, edit your Pelican settings file to include this line:
.. code-block:: python
THEME = "~/pelican-themes/theme-name"
So, for instance, to use the ``mnmlst`` theme, you would edit your settings
file to include:
.. code-block:: python
THEME = "~/pelican-themes/mnmlst"
Save the changes to your settings file and then regenerate your site by using
the Makefile you should already have set up using ``pelican-quickstart``:
.. code-block:: sh
make html
Themes can also be specified directly via the ``-t ~/pelican-themes/theme-name``
parameter to the ``pelican`` command. If you want to edit your theme, make sure
that any edits you make are made to the copy stored in
``~/pelican-themes/theme-name``. Any changes made to
files stored in your site's ``output`` directory will be deleted the next
time you generate your site.
