When enabled, you can create expandable/collapsible note sections in your blog posts.

You can add anchor links by adding the following to your _index.md:

Page configuration

Source code (repo_view)

Do you want to link to the source code of your blog post? You can turn on the repo_view inside the [extra] section of your blog post.

[extra]
repo_view = true
repo_url = "https://github.com/not-matthias/apollo/tree/main/content"   # Alternatively add the repo here

The repo_url can be set in the [extra] section or in your config.toml.

Comments (comment)

Enables or disables the comment system for posts.

  • Type: Boolean
  • Default: false
  • Usage: comment = false

After making comment = true in [extra] section of you post, save your script from Giscus to templates/_giscus_script.html. When enabled, this allows readers to leave comments on your blog posts. This feature has to be set for each individual post and is not supported at higher levels.

Example configuration in content/posts/configuration.md:

+++
title = "Configuring Apollo"

[extra]
comment = true
+++

Comments via utterances can be configured in template/_giscus_script.html like this:

<script src="https://utteranc.es/client.js"
        repo="YOUR_NAME/YOUR_REPO"
        issue-term="pathname"
        theme="github-light"
        crossorigin="anonymous"
        async>
