Hugothemes: New Theme: Hugo Scroll

[janraasch]

Hi there 🙋🏼‍♂️😁

Theme submission

Link to my theme repository: https://github.com/janraasch/hugo-scroll

I made sure that...

• [x] the repository contains a good README.md describing my theme
• [x] an open source license has been added to LICENSE.md
• [x] all metadata have been added to theme.toml
• [x] screenshots have been added in the images/ folder with the required dimensions
• [x] in case I'm using a customized demo via the exampleSite folder that
  
  
  
  • [x] https://example.com is set as base url in exampleSite/config.{toml, yaml, json} to avoid the abuse of unused domains
  
  
  • [x] I tested that my theme's demo works with the content directory of gohugoio/HugoBasicExample
  
  
• [x] I tested my theme against the gohugoio/HugoBasicExample
  
  
  
  • [x] I've checked the developer tools' console in my browser for error messages
  
  
• [x] in case my theme is using Hugo Pipes features like toCSS and PostCSS that I have committed the /resources directory with all generated assets, for my theme to work in the basic version of Hugo

Hi Jan,

excuse the delay. I was busy with the preperation of an exam that I wrote today. I plan to review the theme submissions in the upcoming days.

[janraasch]

No worries. Take your time and thank you for the heads-up. I hope the exam went amazing 🥇 :-).

Hello again,

first of all, thanks for sharing your theme with the Hugo community. During the review the only issue I noticed was that the header image on the very top of your theme isn't when running the build script for www.themes.gohugo.io.

While your demo is hosted at http://localhost:1313/theme/hugo-scroll/ the image links due to relURL to /images/cover-image.jpg. Thus the image's path is relative to the root of the domain (http://localhost:1313/), not to http://localhost:1313/theme/hugo-scroll/. By not using relURL you keep the path as images/cover-image.jpg, which works fine as for the images in the sections below.

Hi there @digitalcraftsman 👋🏻, thank you for taking the time to review this.

During the review the only issue I noticed was that the header image on the very top of your theme isn't when running the build script for www.themes.gohugo.io.

Nice catch 👍 . I removed the usage of relURL via https://github.com/janraasch/hugo-scroll/commit/0fe91fc202581e817fccc29169255fe9a1b9bccb.

Please try again.

Kind regards and have a nice weekend,
Jan

Thanks for applying the fix. Your theme is already live on Hugo's theme site. Next, I'll promote your theme on Hugo's official Twitter account.

Kind regards and have a nice weekend,

Likewise Jan

Awesome, @digitalcraftsman. Thank you very much ❤️ 👍. I am proud to be a part of the Hugo community 😊.

I'm looking forward to the announcement on Twitter https://twitter.com/gohugoio 👀 🍭.

Have a good start into the »work«-week 😛 😇.

Awesome, @digitalcraftsman. Thank you very much ❤️ 👍. I am proud to be a part of the Hugo community 😊.

Thanks for giving something back 😉

I'm looking forward to the announcement on Twitter twitter.com/gohugoio 👀 🍭.

tl;dr: for an unknown reason my Twitter account (not @ gohugoio) has been suspended by inadvertently trigger some filter or something alike. Thus, I'm currently not able to post anything through (@ gohugoio). I've contacted Twitter's support to resolve the issue. I'll reopen this issue as a reminder for the announcement.

Have a good start into the »work«-week 😛 😇.

You as well and happy Hugoing.

[digitalcraftsman]

Your theme has now been promoted on Hugo's official Twitter account as well (see https://twitter.com/GoHugoIO/status/1301896092574011394).

That's great. Thank you very much, @digitalcraftsman 👍.
