Theme based in Clean Blog layout.
Screenshot
Basic configuration
All configurations about this theme.
Header Covers
To define custom header cover, set the property HEADER_COVER
in pelicanconf.py
:
HEADER_COVER = 'static/my_image.png'
Header Color
To define a simple header background color, set the property HEADER_COLOR
in pelicanconf.py
:
HEADER_COLOR = 'black'
you can use any valid css color.
Social URLs
Github, Twitter and Facebook URLs set these properties:
SOCIAL = (('twitter', 'https://twitter.com/myprofile'),
('github', 'https://github.com/myprofile'),
('facebook','https://facebook.com/myprofile'),
('flickr','https://www.flickr.com/myprofile/'),
('envelope','mailto:my@mail.address'))
If you have new links add them to SOCIAL. The Name has to be the name of the corresponding FontAwesome icon.
If SHOW_SOCIAL_ON_INDEX_PAGE_HEADER
is set to True social icons will be
shown under site sub-title on the index page.
External feed URL
You can specify an external feed URL (e.g. FeedBurner) in SOCIAL
using the
rss
or rss-square
icons. The icon will be shown in the footer with the
rest of your SOCIAL
accounts. A <link>
tag for the external feed will be
placed in <head>
instead of the default Pelican feeds.
Code highlights
This theme contains this color schemes:
- Tomorrow -
tomorrow.css
; - Tomorrow Night -
tomorrow_night.css
; - Monokai -
monokai.css
; - Github -
github.css
; - Github Jekyll (Gray BG Jekyll way) -
github_jekyll.css
; - Darkly (Default) -

;
To customize, define COLOR_SCHEME_CSS
in pelicanconf.py
with css filename. Example:
COLOR_SCHEME_CSS = 'monokai.css'
User defined CSS
Define CSS_OVERRIDE
in pelicanconf.py
to insert a user defined CSS file
after theme CSS. Example:
CSS_OVERRIDE = 'myblog.css'
Disable theme JavaScript
Set DISABLE_CUSTOM_THEME_JAVASCRIPT
to True if you want to disable
js/clean-blog.min.js
in case it affects forms and input fields.
User defined footer
Define FOOTER_INCLUDE
in pelicanconf.py
to insert a custom footer text
instead the default "Powered by Pelican". The value is a template path. You also
need to define the EXTRA_TEMPLATES_PATHS
setting. If your custom footer
template is stored under the content PATH
then Pelican will try to render
it as regular HTML page and will most likely fail. To prevent Pelican from
trying to render your custom footer add it to IGNORE_FILES
. Example:
FOOTER_INCLUDE = 'myfooter.html'
IGNORE_FILES = [FOOTER_INCLUDE]
EXTRA_TEMPLATES_PATHS = [os.path.dirname(__file__)]
WARNING: avoid using names which duplicate existing templates from the
theme directory, for example footer.html
. Due to how Pelican searches the
template directories it will first find the files in the theme directory and you
will not see the desired results.
