Help & instructions

Guidelines:

  • It’s advised to set the AdvancedPost Count per page not higher than the default of 10. Not all users have a big screen like you.
  • If you change the background, try to use a dark one. This theme looks best on dark.
  • Try to keep InfoDescription short. HTML is disabled to keep the design minimal. If you want to write more stuff about yourself, you can go to PagesAdd a page..

Known issues

  • Not all browsers are fully supported and in some older ones, things might even break.
  • Tumblr video posts don’t have a thumbnail.
  • HTML and widgets are disabled in the footer description to keep it small.
  • Disqus or other 3rd party things are not supported. If you want to add it, you’ll need to custom code it yourself. Some HTML/CSS knowledge is required.

How do I add a link to the footer?

The most often question I get asked is how to add an external link that appears in the navigation in the footer. I know, it’s not really obvious, so I hope this helps: Go to Customize > Pages > Add a page. In the new window that pops up, you have to switch the Page type to “Redirect” and make sure the Show a link to this page is clicked. Below a screenshot with Twitter as example.
