Ghost

It’s been nearly a month using Ghost, so it was time to switch back to Hugo.

How I added a subtle link to edit the current page or post in Ghost.

There is no built-in method in Ghost for floating an image and having text flow around it. It’s a significant omission, and one which they say is “too hard” and have no plans to change. OK fine, I’ll do it myself. I found a reasonable solution in this post on the forums. Here’s how I’m using it. Add the following to the header in the code injection area: /* small images to float but not look stupid on mobile */ @media (min-width: 40rem) { .float-left-half figure, .float-left-two-thirds figure { float: left; margin: 8px 20px 6px 0; } .float-right-half figure, .float-right-two-thirds figure { float: right; margin: 8px 0 6px 20px; } .float-left-half figure, .float-right-half figure { max-width: 50%; } @media (min-width: 64em) { .float-left-two-thirds figure, .float-right-two-thirds figure { max-width: 67%; } } } Then, in a post or page, I add an HTML block before the image card I want to float (e.g to the right). ...

OK, it’s happening again. Hugo broke my site for the second time in two updates. I got mad (again) and decided it was time for us to break up. I dusted off the version of the blog that I’d built using Eleventy and started working on getting everything updated. Except it didn’t work. I don’t know what I was missing or what had changed since I stopped using it, but things were broken. I then decided that I would start fresh with Eleventy’s base blog repo. That was also a mistake. After several hours, I had built an ugly blog, without some of the features I’d wanted. I gave up. ...
