New site navigation
To improve site navigation, I've added a new template to mdsh, which produces a nice menu for easier website navigation - it lists the main pages (.html pages in the root dir, exluding index.html and 404.html), most recent blog posts, as well as the sites categories and tags.
You can see this site navigation section in the footer of this page.
How to edit
The site navigation is created using a function in .app/generate_page_content.bash, which is called site_navigation and does the following:
- creates the mustache iterators and data needed by the
.app/templates/html/_site_navigation.mustachetemplate - renders the HTML from the template
This site_navigation function is called using the {{site_navigation}} variable in the _site_footer.mustache template: when the footer template is parsed, the site_navigation shell function is executed and its output included in the HTML output.
You could edit the contents of the site_navigation function to change the data passed to the _site_navigation.mustache template, or edit where it appears by moving {{site_navigation}} in your templates, or you could edit _site_navigation.mustache itself to edit the HTML it produces.
You might also need to edit assets/css/main.css as well - look for .site-navigation classes.
Other uses
The navigation generated could be used in the main website header, or it could be used as off-screen links for screen-readers, or it could be used as off-screen TAB only content, much like the "Skip to content" popup you get when tabbing through mdsh generated pages.
