Posts

  • Add, update or remove a post in the Posts collection.
  • The Staff Author field links to members in the Staff collection.
  • Documentation pages are organised in the navigation by category, with URLs based on the path inside the _docs folder.
  • Change the defaults when new posts are created in _posts/_defaults.md.

Contact Form

  • Preconfigured to work with CloudCannon, but easily changed to another provider (e.g. FormSpree).
  • Sends email to the address listed in company details.

Staff

  • Reused around the site to save multiple editing locations.
  • Add excluded_in_search: true to any documentation page's front matter to exclude that page in the search results.

Footer

  • Exposed as a data file to give clients better access.
  • Set in the Data / Footer section.

Company details
