Using Notices

Fri, 20 Aug 2021 00:00:00 +0000

The "Notices" shortcode enables you to call out pieces of information - sidebars, warnings, tips, etc.

To create a notice on a page, you can use the notice shortcode.
You use the notice shortcode, with the first parameter being one of note, info, tip, and warning. Then add a title for your note in quotes as the second parameter. The inner body of the note can be whatever markdown you want to create.

The following shortcode syntax within a markdown doc:

1{{% notice note "Note" %}}
2This is a standard "note" style.
3{{% /notice %}}

will render as:

Note

This is a standard "note" style.

The other three variants follow.

Info

Here is the "info" style.

Tip

Here is a "tip" variant of a notice.

Warning

Here is the "warning" flavor of a notice.

Also note that the content of a notice can contain anything you could put on a normal page - as shown below:

Complex Notices are Possible!

This is a notice that has a lot of various kinds of content in it.

Here is a bulleted list
With more than one bullet
- And even more than one level

Code blocks are fine here, too....

1public void SayHello()
2{
3    Console.WriteLine("Hello, world!");
4}

Productivity Booster!

If you're using VS Code for your editing, copy the .vscode\clarity.code-snippets file into a .vscode root folder on your repo. This will enable you to type note then <tab> then choose with up/down arrows which flavor notice you want, then <tab> again to provide a title, then <tab> to add your content!

To use the snippet, you need to first enable quickSuggestions for Markdown (one time only):

Go to Preferences->Settings then search for quickSuggestions
Follow the link to Edit in settings.json
Toward the bottom of the file, paste in the following JSON:

1"[markdown]":  {
2    "editor.quickSuggestions": true
3  }

Close and save the settings.

Markdown Syntax Guide

Mon, 11 Mar 2019 00:00:00 +0000

This article offers a sample of basic Markdown syntax that can be used in Hugo content files, also it shows whether basic HTML elements are decorated with CSS in a Hugo theme.

Headings

The following HTML <h1>—<h6> elements represent six levels of section headings. <h1> is the highest section level while <h6> is the lowest.

H1

H2

H3

H4

H5

H6

Blockquotes

The blockquote element represents content that is quoted from another source, optionally with a citation which must be within a footer or cite element, and optionally with in-line changes such as annotations and abbreviations.

Blockquote without attribution

Tiam, ad mint andaepu dandae nostion secatur sequo quae. Note that you can use Markdown syntax within a blockquote.

Blockquote with attribution

Math Typesetting

Fri, 08 Mar 2019 00:00:00 +0000

Mathematical notation in a Hugo project can be enabled by using third party JavaScript libraries.

In this example we will be using KaTeX

Create a partial under /layouts/partials/math.html
Within this partial reference the Auto-render Extension or host these scripts locally.
Include the partial in your templates like so:

1{{ if or .Params.math .Site.Params.math }}
2{{ partial "math.html" . }}
3{{ end }}

To enable KaTex globally set the parameter math to true in a project's configuration
To enable KaTex on a per page basis include the parameter math: true in content files

Note: Use the online reference of Supported TeX Functions

Examples

Block math: $$ \varphi = 1+\frac{1} {1+\frac{1} {1+\frac{1} {1+\cdots} } } $$

Emoji Support

Tue, 05 Mar 2019 00:00:00 +0000

Emoji can be enabled in a Hugo project in a number of ways.

The emojify function can be called directly in templates or Inline Shortcodes.

To enable emoji globally, set enableEmoji to true in your site's configuration and then you can type emoji shorthand codes directly in content files; e.g.

🙈 :see_no_evil: 🙉 :hear_no_evil: 🙊 :speak_no_evil:

The Emoji cheat sheet is a useful reference for emoji shorthand codes.

N.B. The above steps enable Unicode Standard emoji characters and sequences in Hugo, however the rendering of these glyphs depends on the browser and the platform. To style the emoji you can either use a third party emoji font or a font stack; e.g.

1.emoji {
2  font-family: Apple Color Emoji, Segoe UI Emoji, NotoColorEmoji, Segoe UI Symbol, Android Emoji, EmojiSymbols;
3}
