I'm working on a Jekyll site and am trying to output three column divs nested in a row div. Liquid makes this pretty easy with their cycle filter: {% for p in site.categories.post %} {% cycle 'add rows': '<div class="row">', nil, nil %} <div class="column"> <a href="{{ p.url }}">{{ p.title }}</a> </div> ...
I'm trying to deploy a site generated with Jekyll and would like to keep the site in its own subfolder on my server to keep everything more organized. Essentially, I'd like to use the contents of /jekyll as the root unless a file similarly named exists in the actual web root. So something like /jekyll/sample-page/ would show as http://w...

I'm using Jekyll to create a new blog. It uses Liquid underneath. Jekyll defines certain "variables": site, content, page, post and paginator. These "variables" have several "members". For instance, post.date will return the date of a post, while post.url will return its url. My question is: can I access a variable's member using anoth...

Hello, I haven't used Ruby. I don't what gems are. But I know how to install them and do basic things like that. I heard of Jekyll and decided to start my own using Heroku.

Now I saved the same page using ANSI encoding. Jekyll parses that easily and my site is up and running. But it is limited only to ANSI and some characters appear as a que...

In my Jekyll blog I use the include tag to put the contents of a file into the document. However if I attempt to do this with a HAML based document the indentation of the included text is wrong. :preserve does not work because it requires indentation. Is there a way to specify a block of text without depending on indentation? %html %b...

Hi Guys, I'm about to go crazy here so I'll just ask: How the hell do you install the Ruby Gem Jekyll on Windows. Jekyll depends on fast-stemmer-1.0.0 and that has to be built as a native extension I found this handy guide on RubyDevKit to install a 'sane' environment on Windows and it works, but fast-stemmer is still hell bent on us...
