This repository provides a web site theme for communities in need of a free, easy-to-configure online exhibit.
The easiest way to use this theme is to fork the example site at https://github.com/idahatiu/idahatiu.github.io
The _config.yml file contains settings for exhibit info, font, and color choices that affect the entire web site.
Each item in the collection has an item ID (no spaces or punctuation) has one or more files associated with it (e.g. 0001.md, in the following places:
- The
_itemsfolder contains one.mdfile for each item in the archive collection. These "markdown" files contain information in text form that distribute information to different folders/files in the community-archive theme, which auto-generate a web page for each individual item, drawing in photos and other info from the other file locations. - The
/assets/items/folder contains images named for each item (e.g.0001_01.jpgand0001_02.jpgwould display 2 photos for item 0001)
- Designed for remote-theme installation using the sample site at idahatiu.github.io. Also bundled as a theme gem.
- Compatible with GitHub Pages, including support for Jekyll's built-in Sass/SCSS preprocessor, with no additional plug-ins or a standalone computer required
- Seven different color variations and four font variations
- Built-in layouts for digital-exhibit item listings and individual items
- Optimized for search engines with support for Twitter Cards and Open Graph data.
- Google Analytics support.
