Anatole Theme for Zola

Anatole theme for Farbox ported to Zola

---

Zola Homepage | Demo with customizations

---

Installation

First download this theme to your themes directory:

$ cd themes
$ git clone https://github.com/longfangsong/anatole-zola.git

and then enable it in your config.toml:

theme = "anatole-zola"

And copy the content/about, content/archive, content/_index.md in the theme folder to your own content folder. And edit the _index.md in about folder to edit the content of your about page.

Options

Basic

Add title, description and base_url:

title = "Anatole"
description = "A other zola theme"
base_url = "https://example.com"

Mode

Though the origin theme only support light mode, we added a dark mode option here.

You can either

• set the extra.mode field in config.toml to use the dark/light mode
• or set the extra.default_mode field in config.toml to read the dark/light mode from localStorage (the key is 'mode'), and use some Javascript to control the theme each reader is using
• or do nothing, we'll use light mode by default

Language

Currently, we have English, Chinese, German and Swedish translations, set the default_language if necessary:

# 如果你想要中文
default_language = "zh"

If there are complications, you can copy this snippet to your config.toml:

[languages.en.translations]
language_name = "English"
about = "About"
home = "Home"
tags = "Tags"
archive = "Archive"
links = "Links"
date_format = "%Y-%m-%d"
next_page = "Next Page"
last_page = "Last Page"

[languages.zh.translations]
language_name = "中文"
home = "首页"
about = "关于"
tags = "标签"
archive = "归档"
links = "友链"
date_format = "%Y-%m-%d"
next_page = "下一页"
last_page = "上一页"

[languages.de.translations]
language_name = "Deutsch"
about = "Info"
home = "Home"
tags = "Kategorien"
archive = "Archiv"
links = "Links"
date_format = "%d-%m-%Y"
next_page = "Nächste Seite"
last_page = "Vorherige Seite"

[languages.sv.translations]
language_name = "Svenska"
about = "Info"
home = "Hem"
tags = "Etiketter"
archive = "Arkiv"
links = "Länkar"
date_format = "%Y-%m-%d"
next_page = "Nästa Sidan"
last_page = "Sista Sidan"

Feel free to create a pull request if you want to translate the theme into other languages!

Multilingual

The theme will become multilingual automatically if you specify another language except default_language.

You'll see a language-switching button on top right.

Sections

Tags and links sections are optional.

• If you want to enable the tags page, add

  taxonomies = [
    {name = "tags"},
  ]
  
  [extra.show]
  tags = true

  To your config.toml

• If you want to enable the links page, add

  [extra.show]
  links = true

  and copy content/links to your own content library. And edit the _index.md in it to modify its content.

• If you want to add the author's name on each page, add:

  [extra]
  author = "John Doe"

Sidebar menu

We support a bunch of social links:

[extra.social]
github = ""
gitlab = ""
stackoverflow = "" # use user_id
twitter = ""
mastodon = "" # use hostname/@username
facebook = ""
instagram = ""
dribbble = ""
weibo = ""
linkedin = ""
flickr = ""

Fill in your username if you want! And the logo won't appear if you leave it empty.

Comment system

We currently support...

• Valine:

[extra.comment.valine]
appid = "Your appid goes here"
appkey = "Your appkey goes here"
notify = false # true/false: mail notify https://github.com/xCss/Valine/wiki/Valine-%E8%AF%84%E8%AE%BA%E7%B3%BB%E7%BB%9F%E4%B8%AD%E7%9A%84%E9%82%AE%E4%BB%B6%E6%8F%90%E9%86%92%E8%AE%BE%E7%BD%AE
verify = false # true/false: verify code
avatar = "mm" # avatar style https://github.com/xCss/Valine/wiki/avatar-setting-for-valine
placeholder = "Say something here"

• Disqus, note that Disqus does not work in Mainland China:

[extra.comment.disqus]
name = "longfangsong"

• Utterances:

[extra.comment.utterances]
repo = "Your repo for comments"
issue_term = "pathname"
theme = "github-light"

Customize

There are several options I left in the origin templates for you to customize your site.

More style

You can create a blog.scss or something similiar in the your sass folder, add a templates.html with following content:

{% extends "anatole-zola/templates/basic.html" %}
{% block extra_head %}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ get_url(path="blog.css") }}">
{% endblock %}

More social links

You can add more social links by adding a templates.html with some content added to more_social_link block:

{% extends "anatole-zola/templates/basic.html" %}
{% block more_social_link %}
<div id="pirate" data-wordart-src="//cdn.wordart.com/json/685czi4rqil5" style="width: 100%;" data-wordart-show-attribution></div>
{% endblock %}

If you want to use some awesome logos, FontAwesome icons are already available.
