If you're running Jekyll v3.5+ and self-hosting you can quickly install the theme as a Ruby gem. If you're hosting with GitHub Pages you can install as a remote theme or directly copy all of the theme files (see structure below) into your project.

gem sources -a https://gems.ruby-china.com/
gem sources -l

bundle config mirror.https://rubygems.org https://gems.ruby-china.com/

1. Add this line to your Jekyll site's Gemfile (or create one):

   gem "jekyll-theme-so-simple"

2. Add this line to your Jekyll site's _config.yml file:

   theme: jekyll-theme-so-simple

3. Then run Bundler to install the theme gem and dependencies:

   bundle install
   

Verify you have the latest version assigned in _config.yml

remote_theme: "mmistakes/[email protected]"

Layouts, includes, Sass partials, and data files are all placed in their default locations. Stylesheets and scripts can be found in assets, and a few development related files in the project's root directory.

Please note: If you installed So Simple via the Ruby Gem or remote theme methods, theme files found in /_layouts, /_includes, /_sass, and /assets will be missing from your project. This is normal as they are bundled with the jekyll-theme-so-simple gem.

├── _data               # data files
|  ├── navigation.yml   # navigation bar links
|  └── text.yml         # theme text
├── _includes           # theme includes
├── _layouts            # theme layouts (see below for usage)
├── _sass               # Sass partials
├── assets
|  ├── css
|  |  └── main.scss
|  └── js
|     └── main.min.js
├── _config.yml         # sample configuration
└── index.md            # sample home page (recent posts/not paginated)

Configuration of site-wide elements (locale, title, description, url, logo, author, etc.) happens in your project's _config.yml. See the example configuration in this repo for additional reference.

Three skins (default, light, and dark) are available to change the color palette of the theme.

default.css	light.css	dark.css

skin: "/assets/css/skins/default.css"
skin: "/assets/css/skins/light.css"
skin: "/assets/css/skins/dark.css"

To use a custom skin other than the ones provided:

1. Copy and rename /assets/css/skins/default.scss to your local repo.
2. Override and customize Sass variables as you see fit.
3. Update the skin path in _config.yml to reference this new skin .css file.

site.locale is used to declare the primary language for each web page within the site.

Example: locale: "en-US" sets the lang attribute for the site to the United States flavor of English, while en-GB would be for the United Kingdom style of English. Country codes are optional and the shorter variation locale: "en" is also acceptable. To find your language and country codes check this reference table.

Properly setting the locale is important for associating localized text found in the text data file.

Note: The theme defaults to text in English (en, en-US, en-GB). If you change locale in _config.yml to something else be sure to add the corresponding locale key and translated text to _data/text.yml.

The base hostname and protocol for your site. If you're hosting with GitHub Pages this will be something like url: "https://github.io.mmistakes" or url: "https://your-site.com" if you have a custom domain name.

GitHub Pages now forces https:// for new sites, so be mindful of that when setting your URL to avoid mixed-content warnings.

Note: Jekyll overrides the value of url with http://localhost:4000 when running jekyll serve locally in development. If you want to avoid this behavior set JEKYLL_ENV=production to force the environment to production.

This option causes all kinds of confusion in the Jekyll community. If you're not hosting your site as a GitHub Project Page or in a subfolder (e.g., /blog), then don't mess with it.

In the case of the So Simple demo site it's hosted on GitHub at https://mmistakes.github.io/so-simple-theme. To correctly set this base path I'd use url: "https://mmistakes.github.io" and baseurl: "/so-simple-theme".

For more information on how to properly use site.url and site.baseurl as intended by the Jekyll maintainers, check Parker Moore's post on the subject.

Note: When using baseurl remember to include it as part of your link and asset paths in your content. Values of url: and baseurl: "/blog" would make your local site visible at http://localhost:4000/blog and not http://localhost:4000. You can either prepend all your asset and internal link paths with {{ site.baseurl }} or use Jekyll's relative_url.

To use the example values above the following image path of {{ '/images/my-image.jpg' | relative_url }} would output correctly as http://localhost:4000/blog/images/my-image.jpg.

Without the relative_url filter that asset path would be missing /blog and you'd have a broken image on your page.

You can change the default date format by specifying date_format in _config.yml. It accepts any of the standard Liquid date formats.

For example the default value of "%B %-d, %Y" could be changed like so:

date_format: "%Y-%m-%d"

Enable estimated reading time snippets site-wide with read_time: true. 200 has been set as the default words per minute value — which can be changed via words_per_minute in your _config.yml file.

read_time: true
words_per_minute: 200

Enable MathJax (a JavaScript display engine for mathematics) site-wide with

mathjax:
  enable: true

The combo option lets you to choose a MathJax component combination--the default is "tex-svg." And, the tags option lets you control equation numbering--choices are "ams" (default), "all", and "none."

Sample configuration:

mathjax:
  enable: true             # MathJax equations, e.g. true, false (default)
  combo: "tex-svg"         # "tex-svg" (default), "tex-mml-chtml", etc.
  tags: "ams"              # "none", "ams" (default), "all"

Easily use Google Fonts throughout your site by replacing the font name and weights accordingly. Suggested font pairings are as follows:

google_fonts:
  - name: "Source Sans Pro"
    weights: "400,400i,700,700i"
  - name: "Lora"
    weights: "400,400i,700,700i"

Note: If other font families are used, be sure to add, then override the following SCSS variables in /assets/css/main.scss with the font-family values Google provides.

$serif-font-family: "Lora", serif;
$sans-serif-font-family: "Source Sans Pro", sans-serif;
$monospace-font-family: Menlo, Consolas, Monaco, "Courier New", Courier,
  monospace;

$base-font-family: $sans-serif-font-family;
$headline-font-family: $sans-serif-font-family;
$title-font-family: $serif-font-family;
$description-font-family: $serif-font-family;
$meta-font-family: $serif-font-family;

See stylesheet documentation below for more information on overriding the theme's default variables.

Break up the main listing of posts on the home page across multiple pages by enabling pagination.

1. Include the jekyll-paginate plugin in your Gemfile.

   group :jekyll_plugins do
     gem "jekyll-paginate"
   end

2. Add jekyll-paginate to the plugins array (previously gems) in your _config.yml file and the following pagination settings:

   paginate: 10  # amount of posts to show per page
   paginate_path: /page:num/

3. Create index.html (or rename index.md) in the root of your project and add the following front matter:

   layout: home
   paginate: true

To index the full content of your documents for use in a search page, set search_full_content to true in _config.yml:

search_full_content: true

Note: Large amounts of posts will increase the size of the search index, impacting page load performance. Setting search_full_content to false (the default) restricts indexing to the first 50 words of body content.

By default, category and tags added to a post are not linked to taxonomy archive pages. To enable this behavior and link to pages with posts grouped by category or tag, add the following:

category_archive_path: "/categories/#"
tag_archive_path: "/tags/#"

These paths should mimic the permalinks used for your categories and tags archive pages. The # at the end is necessary to target the correct taxonomy section on the pages.

For example if you were to create categories.md with the following front matter:

title: Categories Archive
layout: categories
permalink: /foo/

You'd need to change category_archive_path to "/foo/# for category links to function properly.

Note: You can create dedicated category and tag pages manually with layout: category and layout: tag. Or use plugins like jekyll-archives or jekyll-paginate-v2 to generate them automatically.

If you have a Disqus account, you can show a comments section below each post.

To enable Disqus comments, add your Disqus shortname to your project's _config.yml file:

disqus:
  shortname: my_disqus_shortname

Comments only appear in production when built with the following environment value: JEKYLL_ENV=production to avoid polluting your Disqus account with localhost content.

If you don't want to display comments for a particular post you can disable them by adding comments: false to that post's front matter.

To enable Google Analytics, add your tracking ID to _config.yml like so:

google_analytics: UA-NNNNNNNN-N

Similar to Disqus comments above, the Google Analytics tracking script will only appear in production when using the following environment value: JEKYLL_ENV=production.

For more configuration options be sure to consult the documentation for: jekyll-seo-tag, jekyll-feed, jekyll-paginate, and jekyll-sitemap.

This theme provides the following layouts, which you can use by setting the layout front matter on each page, like so:

---
layout: name
---

This layout handles all of the basic page scaffolding placing the page content between the masthead and footer elements. All other layouts inherit this one and provide additional styling and features inside of the {{ content }} block.

This layout accommodates the following front matter:

Post image example:

image:
  path: /images/post-image-lg.jpg
  thumbnail: /images/post-image-th.jpg
  caption: "Photo credit [Unsplash](https://unsplash.com/)"

Note: image.feature front matter has been deprecated, to fully support jekyll-seo-tag. If you are not using thumbnail or caption the post image can be assigned more concisely as image: /images/your-post-image.jpg.

Post author example:

# post specific author data if different from what is set in _config.yml
author:
  name: John Doe
  picture: /images/john-doe.jpg
  twitter: johndoe

Note: Author information can centralized in _data/authors.yml by doing following in the document's front matter:

author: johndoe

With the corresponding author key in _data/authors.yml:

johndoe:
  name: John Doe
  picture: /images/john-doe.jpg
  twitter: johndoe

Note: author.picture recommended size is 150 x 150 pixels.

To define what links appear in the author sidebar use the authors.links key in either _config.yml or /_data/authors.yml.

Example:

author:
  links:
    - title: Twitter
      url: https://twitter.com/username
      icon: fab fa-twitter-square
    - title: Instagram
      url: https://instagram.com/username
      icon: fab fa-instagram
    - title: GitHub
      url: https://github.com/username
      icon: fab fa-github-square

Note: To disable author links completely use use:

author:
  links: false

Visually this layout looks and acts similar layout: post, with the following differences.

• Author sidebar and page meta (published date, categories, and tags) are ommitted.
• Page is less wide due to omitted sidebar.
• Disqus comments are omitted.
• Next/Previous post navigation links omitted.

The page layout forms the base for several other layouts like home, posts, categories, tags, collection, category, tag, and search.

This layout accommodates the same front matter as layout: page, with the addition of the following:

paginate: true  # enables pagination loop, see section above for additional setup
entries_layout: # list (default), grid

When pagination is not enabled the page defaults to showing the latest 10 posts. To change the amount of posts shown, assign a limit value by adding the following to the page's front matter.

posts_limit: 5

By default, posts are shown in a list view. To change to a grid view add entries_layout: grid to the page's front matter.

This layout displays all posts grouped by the year they were published. It accommodates the same front matter as layout: page.

By default, posts are shown in a list view. To change to a grid view add entries_layout: grid to the page's front matter.

This layout displays all posts grouped category. It accommodates the same front matter as layout: page.

By default, posts are shown in a list view. To change to a grid view add entries_layout: grid to the page's front matter.

This layout displays all posts grouped by tag. It accommodates the same front matter as layout: page.

By default, posts are shown in a list view. To change to a grid view add entries_layout: grid to the page's front matter.

This layout displays all documents grouped by a specific collection. It accommodates the same front matter as layout: page with the addition of the following:

collection: # collection name
entries_layout: # list (default), grid
show_excerpts: # true (default), false
sort_by: # date (default) title
sort_order: # forward (default), reverse

To create a page showing all documents in the recipes collection you'd create recipes.md in the root of your project and add this front matter:

title: Recipes
layout: collection
permalink: /recipes/
collection: recipes

By default, documents are shown in a list view. To change to a grid view add entries_layout: grid to the page's front matter. If you want to sort the collection by title add sort_by: title. If you want reverse sorting, add sort_order: reverse. If you are simply looking for a list that shows recipe titles (no excerpts), add show_excerpts: false.

This layout displays all posts grouped by a specific category. It accommodates the same front matter as layout: page with the addition of the following:

taxonomy: # category name
entries_layout: # list (default), grid

By default, posts are shown in a list view. To change to a grid view add entries_layout: grid to the page's front matter.

To create a page showing all posts assigned to the category foo you'd create foo.md in the root of your project and add this front matter:

title: Foo
layout: category
permalink: /categories/foo/
taxonomy: foo

This layout displays all posts grouped by a specific tag. It accommodates the same front matter as layout: page with the addition of the following:

taxonomy: # tag name
entries_layout: # list (default), grid

By default, posts are shown in a list view. To change to a grid view add entries_layout: grid to the page's front matter.

To create a page showing all posts assigned to the tag foo bar you'd create foo-bar.md in the root of your project and add this front matter:

title: Foo Bar
layout: tag
permalink: /tags/foo-bar/
taxonomy: foo bar

This layout displays a search form and displays related pages based on the query.

Page content index: title, excerpt, content (when enabled), categories, tags, and url.

If you would like to exclude specific pages/posts from the search index set the search flag to false in their front matter.

search: false

To index the full content of your documents set search_full_content to true in _config.yml:

search_full_content: true

Note: Large amounts of posts will increase the size of the search index, impacting page load performance. Setting search_full_content to false (the default) restricts indexing to the first 50 words of body content.

Suggested image sizes in pixels are as follows:

To change text found throughout the theme, copy the following /_data/text.yml file and customize as necessary.

When adding new texts be sure the keys match these language/country codes, that may be used for site.locale.

To define what pages are linked in the top navigation:

1. Create a /_data/navigation.yml file.

2. Add pages in the order you'd like them to appear:

   - title: Posts
     url: /posts/
   - title: Categories
     url: /categories/
   - title: External Page
     url: https://whatever-site.com/page.html
   - title: Search
     url: /search/

Note: Long titles or many links may cause the navigation bar to break into multiple lines, especially on smaller screens. Keep this in mind as you develop your site's primary navigation.

Author information is used as meta data for post "by lines" and propagates the creator field of Twitter summary cards with the following front matter in _config.yml:

author:
  name: John Doe
  twitter: johndoetwitter
  picture: /images/johndoe.png

Site-wide author information can be overridden in a document's front matter in the same way:

author:
  name: Jane Doe
  twitter: janedoetwitter
  picture: /images/janedoe.png

Or by specifying a corresponding key in the document's front matter, that exists in site.data.authors. E.g., you have the following in the document's front matter:

author: megaman

And you have the following in _data/authors.yml:

megaman:
  name: Mega Man
  twitter: megamantwitter
  picture: /images/megaman.png

drlight:
  name: Dr. Light
  twitter: drlighttwitter
  picture: /images/drlight.png

Currently author.picture is only used in layout: post. Recommended size is 150 x 150 pixels.

The footer links and copyright text can both be customized.

Footer links are set in _config.yml under the footer_links key.

Examples:

footer_links:
  - title: Twitter
    url: https://twitter.com/username
    icon: fab fa-twitter-square
  - title: GitHub
    url: https://github.com/mmistakes
    icon: fab fa-github-square
  - title: Feed
    url: atom.xml
    icon: fas fa-rss-square

Note: To disable footer links completely use footer_links: false.

By default the copyright inserts the current year, site.title, and the words "Powered by Jekyll & So Simple." To change this add copyright to your _config.yml like so (Markdown is allowed):

copyright: "This site is made with <3 by *me, myself, and I*."

You can think of these Jekyll helpers as shortcodes. Since GitHub Pages doesn't allow most plugins --- custom tags are out. Instead the theme leverages includes to do something similar.

Embed a video from YouTube/Vimeo or any other iframe content that responsively sizes to fit the width of its parent.

Example:

{% include responsive-embed url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PVofD2A9t8" ratio="16:9" %}

To include an auto-generated table of contents for posts and pages, add the following helper where you'd like it to appear.

{% include toc %}

So Simple 3 is a major rewrite of the entire theme. The most notable changes are summarized below, followed by more specific changes.

It is safe to say you'll probably want to ditch all _layouts, _includes, _sass, .css, and .js files from v2 and use either the Ruby gem or remote theme installation options.

• "Fork method" has been deprecated in favor of installing/upgrading the theme via a gem or remote theme.
• All _layouts, _includes, _sass, and JavaScript have been rebuilt.
• Properly uses site.url and site.baseurl leveraging the relative_url and absolute_url filters.
• Replaced custom /_includes/open-graph.html with jekyll-seo-tag.
• Full control over links and icons used in author sidebar and footer.
• Tag, articles, and blog starter pages have been replaced with new layouts (tags and posts) for easier use.
• Removed 404.md page.
• Replaced custom atom.xml feed file with jekyll-feed.
• Removed default favicon.ico and favicon.png files.
• Replaced simple JSON search with Lunr.
• Replaced Magnific Popup with Lity.
• Removed FitVids.JS.

• CSS written with modern browsers in mind. Where possible fallbacks for float based layouts have been used so things don't look too broken in browsers that don't support display: grid and flexbox.

Format has changed from en_US (with an underscore) to en-US with a hyphen.

site.owner is now site.author to better support jekyll-seo-tag and jekyll-feed.

site.owner.google.analytics is now site.google_analytics. See documentation for more information.

site.owner.disqus-shortname is now site.disqus.shortname. See documentation more information.

To disable comments on a particular post add comments: false to its front matter.

search_omit has been renamed to search. To exclude a post or page from search add search: false to its front matter instead.

When assigning image paths for things like the site.logo, page.image.path, author.picture, etc. they now require a full relative or absolute path.

In So Simple v2 images were all placed in /images/ and assigned in front matter with just the filename. For images to properly load, you now need to prepend all paths with /images/... if you are storing images there e.g., /images/your-image.jpg.

To better support Jekyll plugin's like jekyll-seo-tag, jekyll-feed, and jekyll-sitemap most of the image keys have been renamed. Adjust the front matter in all of your posts' and pages' accordingly.

A post with the following v2 front matter:

image:
  feature: feature-image-filename.jpg
  thumb: thumb-image-filename.jpg
  credit: Michael Rose
  creditlink: https://mademistakes.com

Would be converted into the following v3 front matter:

image:
  path: /images/feature-image-filename.jpg
  thumbnail: /images/thumb-image-filename.jpg
  caption: "[Michael Rose](https://mademistakes)"

• Replaced Grunt tasks with npm scripts.

Rough steps to migrate a stock So Simple v2 fork (with no alterations) to the latest.

1. Remove _includes/, _layouts/, _sass/, jshintrc, Gruntfile.js, and search.json.

2. Edit Gemfile for either the Ruby gem or GitHub Pages installation methods and follow those instructions.

3. Add the following Google Fonts to _config.yml:

   google_fonts:
     - name: "Source Sans Pro"
       weights: "400,400i,700,700i"
     - name: "Lora"
       weights: "400,400i,700,700i"

4. Edit _config.yml paying close attention to those keys that have been renamed or have new relative path requirements. locale, logo, and owner are good places to start.

5. Rename all instances of image.feature, image.thumb, and image.credit in posts/pages adhering to the image changes above.

6. Remove the body content in index.html and change layout: page to layout: home. Configure pagination if necessary.

7. Remove the body content in /search/index.md and change layout: page to layout: search.

8. Remove the body content in /tags/index.md and change layout: page to layout: tags.

9. Remove the body content in /articles/index.md and change layout: page to layout: category and add taxonomy: articles.

10. Remove the body content in /body/index.md and change layout: page to layout: category and add taxonomy: blog.

11. Rename modified front matter in posts/pages to last_modified_at for improved parity with plugins that support it.

12. Add tag_archive_path: "/tags/#" to _config.yml to activate tag links in post meta sidebar.

13. Rename avatar to picture in _data/authors.yml (and in any posts/pages front matter), and edit the paths adhering to the image path changes above.

When installing as a Ruby gem or remote theme the core theme files (_layouts, _includes, _sass, assets, etc.) will be absent from your project.

The default structure, style, and scripts of this theme can be overridden and customized in the following two ways:

Theme files can be overridden by placing a file with the same name into your project's _includes or _layouts directory. For instance:

• To add another social sharing button to _includes/social-share.html, create an _includes directory in your project, copy _includes/social-share.html from So Simple's gem folder to <your_project>/_includes and edit that file.

ProTip: to locate the theme's files on your computer run bundle show jekyll-theme-so-simple. This returns the location of the gem-based theme files.

The theme comes with two files to help inject custom markup and content into predefined locations.

To override the default Sass (located in theme's _sass directory), do one of the following:

1. Copy directly from the So Simple gem

   • Go to your local So Simple gem installation directory (run bundle show jekyll-theme-so-simple to get the path to it).
   • Copy the contents of /assets/css/main.scss from there to <your_project>.
   • Customize what you want inside <your_project>/assets/css/main.scss.

2. Copy from this repo.

   • Copy the contents of assets/css/main.scss to <your_project>.
   • Customize what you want inside <your_project/assets/css/main.scss.

Note: To customize the actual Sass partials bundled in the gem, you will need to copy the complete contents of the _sass directory to <your_project>. Due to the way Jekyll currently imports these files it's all or nothing. Overriding a single Sass partial (or two) won't work like _includes and _layouts.

To make basic tweaks to theme's style, Sass variables can be overridden by adding to <your_project>/assets/css/main.scss. For instance, to change the accent color used throughout the theme add the following before all @import lines:

$accent-color: tomato;

To override the default JavaScript bundled in the theme, do one of the following:

1. Copy directly from the So Simple gem

   • Go to your local So Simple gem installation directory (run bundle show jekyll-theme-so-simple to get the path to it).
   • Copy the contents of /assets/js/main.js from there to <your_project>.
   • Customize what you want inside <your_project>/assets/js/main.js.

2. Copy from this repo.

   • Copy the contents of /assets/js/main.js to <your_project>.
   • Customize what you want inside <your_project>/assets/js/main.js.

The theme's /assets/js/main.min.js file is built from jQuery plugins and other scripts found in /assets/js/.

├── assets
|  ├── js
|  |  ├── lunr                             # Lunr search plugin
|  |  |   ├── lunr.xx.js                   # Lunr language plugins
|  |  |   ├── ...
|  |  |   ├── lunr.min.js

|  |  ├── search-data.json                 # search index used by Lunr

To modify or add your own scripts, include them in assets/js/main.js and then rebuild using npm run build:js. See below for more details.

If you add additional scripts to /assets/js/plugins/ and would like them concatenated with the others, be sure to update the uglify script in package.json. Same goes for scripts that you remove.

You can also add scripts to the <head> or closing </body> elements by adding paths to the following arrays in _config.yml.

Example:

head_scripts:
  - https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.2.1.min.js
  - /assets/js/your-custom-head-script.js
footer_scripts:
  - /assets/js/your-custom-footer-script.js

Note: If you assign paths to footer_scripts the theme's /assets/js/main.min.js file will be deactivated. This script includes plugins and other scripts that will cease to function unless you specifically add them to the footer_scripts array.

The theme utilizes the Font Awesome SVG with JS version for iconography. Prominent locations these icons appear are in the author sidebar and footer links.

• Font Awesome
• WeGraphics
• Unsplash

• Jekyll
• Breakpoint
• jQuery
• jQuery Smooth Scroll
• Lity
• Lunr
