Menu and navigation links are hardcoded to Ghostion

[maphew]

Out of the box, the navigation links in top menu bar and left side Main Menu are hardcoded to Ghostion, pages like [Documentation], [Download], [FAQ] etc., and won't make sense for most sites.

For static page links and menu items like this I had expected to be able to set everything in one place. A configuration table like the below or like the var ghostionConfig section at end of default.hbs, and not have to go digging through multiple pages to figure out what to change, and digging further to learn what css classes are needed (for icons).

Menu item	Static page name or url path	icon
Home	"/"	house
About	"/about"	question-mark
Archive	"http://old-site.example.com/archive"	pile-of-books

I hope this or something similar is planned just not yet implemented?

Hello Maphew, Yes, version 1.1.0 will have that, more configurable options on one config file. I am still tidying up some other stuff before final commit.

[maphew]

ok, good to know. I'll hold off on getting too deep into it now until that lands. (any idea how long that might be?)

Hi @maphew , I would estimate around next weekend.

[gugl]

any progress on this? just try to find out if i should do it manually now or if i would just have to wait 2 days to be able to use the configuration part. btw. awesome theme for devs! thanks

This is an awesome theme, by the way - kudos Axiantheme. People picking it up and waiting for it to be perfect might be on the wrong platform, because if you're not willing to hack away at this stuff yourself Ghost is just too immature right now for you.

If you're willing to get your hands dirty here's the directories (they're pretty self explanatory but here it is anyway):
/dir/to/ghost/content/themes/ghostion/partials/ is the launching point (specifically /var/www/ghost/content/themes/ghostion/partials/ on Ubuntu).

It's organized in two different places the ./all_page/ and ./home_page/ have the hbs's you're looking for .. as you may expect, ./all_page/ has the very top + off-screen navigation that is shared on... All pages... and ./home_page/ has the parts to edit that are specific to the home page (the showcase is the text + logo + button... at_top.hbs is where the bar that displays github+credits data.

Hey, any news on when 1.1.0 will be released?

I just started using Ghostion and I really like it, though I'm not sure if I should wait for 1.1.0 or not at this point.

[th3byrdm4n]

I would guess it's wise to wait until after Ghost 1.5 is released

Made my own version of Ghostion, FauxGhost which has one configuration file for all these settings:
