Site Information

This site is built using the Hugo static site generator and the Doks theme.

Modifications have been made to the theme templates to change the landing page from the Doks default, to make section bundles more useful to visitors, and to give an option to display simplified titles in the sidebar.

Full text search is provided by FlexSearch.

Common Tasks

To change the order of pages on the site, edit the weight variable in the front matter of individual pages. A smaller number means the page will appear first in the sidebar and in section bundles.

To change the order of sections of content, refer to the weight variable in the _index.html file within the folder for that section. These _index.html files also enable you to change the names of sections.

Both a title and menuTitle variable can be set in front matter. If a menuTitle variable is set, that text will be used in the left sidebar and on section bundles. If only a title is set, that text will be used for both the on-page title and in menus. The menuTitle variable should be used to shorten long page titles.

The Doks theme provides additional functionality for linting and checking scripts that may be useful:
