Random notes about the SOCVR GitHub page.

Folders

• _posts holds the top level articles
• tools/_posts hold the tools artcles
• room/_posts hold the room articles
• room/meeting/_posts hold the roommeeting articles

categories

• tools, room and meeting are categories
• they are used in _includes*header.md to render the correct menu items
• a post appears in the top menu if the Front Matter contains: main: title of page
• a post that appears in an subment needs in the Front Matter contains: menu: text for menu
• the correct header file is chosen in default.html

DON'T BREAK OLD LINKS

• the files in _posts folders that have their permalink specified require this because otherwise old links that are out in the wild will no longer work
• in the .config.yml the permalink setting is removed which enables us to deep link to the files we have (for example /room/meetings/2016/10/03/October-2016-meeting.html)
• These changes should make it easier to add new content and re-organize or add new index pages when needed.

Notes

• New post must be in "_posts" in the following pattern: "YEAR-MONTH-DAY-TITLE"
• Files can be written in simple markdown and need this at the start of each post

---
layout: default
title: XY
---

• Links to other posts must follow this pattern "{% post_url YEAR-MONTH-DAY-TITLE %}"
