v3.4.3 - Theme support EOL

Hey everyone. I added the following notice to the theme README today.

Warning: I no longer have time to work on this theme for various reasons. It's unlikely I'll get to your issue and no additional features are planned, although the theme will remain available to the public. Feel free to fork it if you need to make extensive changes. I will consider merging simple bugfix pull requests. Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause. Please see v3.4.3 release notes for further details.

I would love to keep working on this theme but unfortunately life got in the way and I can't spend time on it any longer. I feel bad about not being able to continue development moving forward and announcing support EOL so abruptly. Hopefully someone can pick it up and release a fork that improves upon what I managed to build. There's a lot I would change about how the theme was built if I were to tackle it again. Thank you to those who tried out the theme and were supportive of it. Please get in contact with me on twitter or will@ the website on my profile if you have any questions.

v3.4.0 - Homepage customization updates and fixes

Homepage shortcodes (BREAKING CHANGE)

You can now customize the order, inclusion and limit of homepage sections (Recent Posts, Projects) with shortcodes. To support this change, these sections were removed from the default index.html layout and moved to shortcodes in partials/shortcodes.

IMPORTANT: This means that they won't be included by default unless you add the shortcodes to your _index.md content. If no change is made, only the hero section will be shown. Shortcodes will always come after the hero section.

Example of including the 5 most recent posts before the 5 most recent projects after the hero section:

---
frontmatter goes here
---

{{< recent-posts 5 >}}
{{< projects 5 >}}

Style changes

• Homepage avatar flex styles were fixed so that large amounts of hero text content don't cause the avatar's size to decrease dramatically. They now share a fixed proportion of the flex container, and the image will grow to fit that up to its aspect ratio.
• Social icons are now using a different flex property so they don't span across the entire flex container, which looks bad when there are a minimal amount of icons enabled.

Homepage hero CTAs customization

You can now customize the homepage hero CTAs. To do so, add primary_cta_page and secondary_cta_page as params to your _index.html frontmatter with a string pointing to the relative page/URL you want the CTA link to point to. To update the CTA text, add a linktitle attribute to the linked page's frontmatter, otherwise it will fall back to title. Excluding these params from frontmatter will default to about and projects, which was the previous default behavior.

Example:

---
primary_cta_page: "about"
secondary_cta_page: "projects"
---

Still only 2 CTAs are supported so if you need to change this please override the index.html template.

Markdown support for homepage hero subtitle

This allows you to add links, create multiple paragraphs, and do anything that markdown supports in your subtitle.

What's Changed

• Homepage updates by @wjh18 in #31

Full Changelog: v3.3.0...v3.4.0

v3.3.0 - Mastodon social link, README updates, and bug fixes

• Add support for Mastodon social links
• Update README and add demo link
• Fix a bug with a series frontmatter edge case
• Fix a bug with custom CSS cascade in development

Please see #28 for details.

v3.2.4 - Fix Hugo module path

Point the go module path to v3 of the theme. The showcase was pulling the wrong version due to the way go modules work with major versioning. See gohugoio/hugoThemesSiteBuilder#315

v3.2.3 - Hugo modules, updated config, bug fixes

What's Changed

• Make theme a hugo module by @deining in #22
• Bump min Hugo version to latest (v0.115.2) for ease of maintenance. Note: earlier versions will likely still work with most features but moving forward support for recent versions will be prioritized. If you find any issues feel free to open an issue.
• Update exampleSite to use new section permalinks for clean section URLs instead of url frontmatter override. This is optional of course but much easier to manage as it doesn't require manually setting the frontmatter parameter every time.

Cleanups & Bug fixes

• Rename config.toml to hugo.toml to align with new config file guidelines.
• Remove languages.toml to fix bug introduced by new language checks.
• Update dependencies
