I want to use this theme with plugins for my Blog. Best way to start ?
opened this issue · comments
Hi. I am fascinated by kudos, table of contents and many other similar stuff.
Can you please write a blog on how to start with minimal support ?
Can you add the link of the specific blog post you liked? I'm currently experimenting with different themes here, so I'm not sure which one you meant 😄
I meant http://juristr.com/ as a whole. I observed on some blog posts you have table of contents, on some a cover photo. The complete platform fascinates me.
Well, it's handmade CSS I wrote, taking ideas from various other sites. Simply take a look at the CSS. Everything is based on Jekyll as you may already know. I also thought about creating a proper Jekyll template project which others could use, similar to what Zach Holman did.
Regarding the Kudos. They're based on a custom script I wrote with Firebase as the backend. You can read more about that here: http://juristr.com/blog/2014/12/kudos-for-your-site/
@theideamachine Just some things
- please remove my Analytics tracking code, otherwise I'll get "wrong visits" counted. It's here
- learn from my code and then adapt it to your needs. Make it your own, with your own style 😉
Enjoy
Thanks a lot! 👍

Built this blog using your repository. But it is slow. Can you help in improving ?
We can launch it in for jekyll themes as well.
@theideamachine What do u mean by "slow"?
Btw, could u please put this article offline as it is an exact copy of mine? Thx
Sorry for putting up your article. I had it there only for testing purposes.
By slow I mean, network intensive.
If I audit the webpage use chrome dev tools, it shows many suggestions.
Oh, yep, I know 😊. Would have to optimize that on my own blog as well. Just don't have the time right now, unfortunately.
