Develop

Ontoportal product website was built with Jekyll version 3.3.1 and the template Hydra, but should support newer versions as well.

Run jekyll commands through Bundler to ensure you're using the right versions:

$ bundle exec jekyll serve

Editing

Hydra is already optimised for adding, updating and removing pages, staff, advice, company details and footer elements in CloudCannon.

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

• Add excluded_in_search: true to any documentation page's front matter to exclude that page in the search results.

Navigation
