Can't modify theme footer(gem package) about jekyll-text-theme HOT 15 CLOSED

simply because the system font has proper targeting for apple but not other OS.

https://github.com/kitian616/jekyll-TeXt-theme/blob/master/_sass/common/_variables.scss#L2

Those fonts are designed for Chinese.

And this is what I used to replace it, (GitHub style)

-apple-system, 
BlinkMacSystemFont, 
"Segoe UI",
Helvetica, 
Arial, 
sans-serif, 
"Apple Color Emoji", 
"Segoe UI Emoji",
"Segoe UI Symbol";

• fonts is a very complex thing, quite hard to get a font families that compatible for all the language, I think the most compatible way is just use the Latin fonts.

• I don't think it's necessary to make a fonts configurable in the _config.yml, You can just change the font in the _sass/common/_variables.scss.

• I 'll change the fonts in the latter edition.

That's also the same with icons(how are the various formats supported btw?), theme continues to use its own assets folder instead of jekyll site one.

Did you add discord in _config.yml under author section?

author:
  name: potato
    discord:  blah

assets folder is meant to be used for resources, when Jekyll generates your site it moves every dependency into assets

from jekyll-text-theme.

• It's base on Jekyll's default theme.

• Did follow-me.html and follow-me.sass goes well? I don't know what link you are adding. you can modify site's nav bar links by nav_lists in _config.yml.

• Icons however, it 's a little complex. you need change favicon.ico in the project root and the images in the assets/images/logo.

• The footer use author.name in the _config.yml as your name. if you want use your own name, just change it to your own name.

A few updates:

• Tried with a classical theme install(no gem theme), adding discord button works perfectly, I only modified follow-me.html, _follow-me.scss and _default.scss, yet jekyll basically asks for all the _sass and assets folders to be copied into the site path, which nullifies the gem advantage.

• Replaced logo.svg, generated all icons with artwork and replaced favicon.ico, but two things happen:

• Title logo remains unchanged
• Favicon is extremely small in browser no matter what resolution favicon I put in the root folder. And ofc special favicons(apple touch, msbrowserconfig etc do not work). What step am I missing?

The footer uses the title instead of site.author.name and changing it from gem theme doesn't work for some reason, works flawlessly in normal theme install.

An update:

• Decided to drop the gem-based theme, since it was basically a pain, went with the normal one;
• Got favicons to work, however Microsoft edge doesn't(yet to test android and safari)
• I don't know why, but now I've got a weird space when rendering the posts after each typography sign: https://abload.de/img/2018-03-01-13-05-locavrqr0.png what's causing it?

from jekyll-text-theme.

That’s the font family issue. The primary font is designed for non-western languages like Chinese and Korean, where all characters are full-width.

Eg, ， is a full-width comma ,

from jekyll-text-theme.

Actually in the gem based theme this weird space isn't present, and the same can be said for the demo. I thought it was a renderer(kramdown) error, but no idea where its configuration is.

from jekyll-text-theme.

I just manually replaced the font family in wherever-it-is.scss

from jekyll-text-theme.

Did Android or Safari also have that space?
I don't have a Windows environment at the moment, so I have to install one to see what's it going on.

from jekyll-text-theme.

Oddly enough, safari for iOS(11.2.6) displays correctly and the same for chrome on iOS. Also works for android 7.0 chrome. However on desktop it doesn't display correctly, Suggestions?

It works, thank you!

@WangQiru I understand that you mentioned we can change fonts in the .scss file. I still have two questions regarding this issue

• Are there font families that render well on most if not all situations? Maybe it's hard to find something similar but more compatible, so just wondering.

• Additionally, can we make fonts configurable in the _config.yml?

from jekyll-text-theme.

And by the way, both latest Chrome on Windows 7 and Chromium (default ppa) on Ubuntu 16.04 have this font issue.
