TrEnCh Project Website.

Adding content.

Pages.

There are 3 steps to adding a new page to the Trench website.

1. Create a new file in the _pages directory with the template <pagename>.md.
2. Copy and paste the following into the top of your new file, substituting all placeholders for the particular information for the new page:

---
permalink: <<insert permalink, like /people or /tools. this is optional, you can delete this line>>
title: <<insert title>>
author_profile: true
layout: single
header: 
    overlay_image: assets/images/ashcroft.jpg
---

3. Place the page's content as markdown-formatted text below the above content.

When you git add _pages/<newfile.md> and commit and push, the page will be live at http://trenchproject.github.io/<<pagename>>.html or at /<<permalink, depending on whether you set a permalink.

Blog Posts.

The process is similar for blog posts.

1. Create a new file in the _posts directory with the filename YYYY-MM-DD-title-of-post.md.
2. Copy and paste the following into the top of your new file, substituting all placeholders for the particular information for the new page:

---
title: <<insert title>>
excerpt: <<optional short description of the post>>
---

3. Below that content, write the post as markdown-formatted text.

Adding, committing, and pushing the above file to the repository will add the post to the list of posts at http://trenchproject.github.io/news, and the post will be accessible at /news/post-title.
