I have been using Nikola for my blog for a while now, and would like to theme it in a certain way. I am having some problems grokking the theming tutorial and docs. I am getting tripped up over the use of Lanyon as a starting point - I agree it is a cool theme, but I am trying to pin down what needs to change and where (to get a certain result).
For now, I am using bootblog4 - I hard coded certain changes I wanted to make to the fonts, but I would like to know the more elegant way to change those details. And the layout, generally. Is there another tutorial or resource besides : https://getnikola.com/creating-a-theme.html ? I notice that the tutorial seems to suggest leaving the base HTML/CSS alone, and making the needed changes to the template files (.tmpl) - is that correct? If so, do these files have the same inheritance rules as CSS files? Is this the same pattern that is encouraged for CSS files? Changes are put into <name_of_theme>.css? And conflicts with the base css are resolved by making the theme css file more specific? If I understand correctly, baugettebox is what is used for the Gallery feature of Nikola? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nikola-discuss" group.
