Quick tips

• Preview site: blogdown::serve_site()
• Turn off preview: servr::daemon_stop(1)
• Pushing site to internet is done automatically via Netlify
• To manually compile site: blogdown::build_site()

Adding a publication

• Make a folder with a somewhat descriptive name in the content/publication folder (e.g., ZhangEtAl-2020-ChinaVirtualWater)
• From Zotero, export a .bib file for that publication into the folder with the same filename
• Copy an index.md file from another folder and fill in all the content (most can be grabbed from .bib)
  • in abstract, you might have to delete and backslashes (for example in front of %)
  • For the PDF, if not available online put a link into the static/PDFs folder.
  • If it should be on the main page, set featured: true (most recent 4 papers will be shown)
  • use "Samuel C. Zipper" for my name in index.md since that is linked to my author profile.
• Add a tag for which core research area it is part of. Options: ["Water and Agriculture", "Land Use/Land Cover Change", "Ephemeral Hydrology", "Stream-Aquifer Interactions", "Human-Environment Interface"]
• For publication_types: 2 = journal article, 4 = report

Adding a new person

• Go content/authors
• Copy blank folder and give it the person's name
• Name their picture avatar.png
• Edit _index.md

New post from Rmarkdown

• Copy the .Rmd for a recent post, for example "2022-01-02-work-tracking-update.Rmd"
• Write your post and make sure you are happy with everything.
• Knit the file in Rstudio. This will make a .html file in the posts folder and store all the image files in the static folder.
  • The html file will have a weird header - that's OK.
• Commit and push the changes to the web
• Netlify should automatically render it. The URL will be https://www.samzipper.com/post/name_of_post/

Update Hugo and Academic Theme

• Make copy of website repository in case something breaks.
• Updating Hugo: this is not necessary when site is deployed to Netlify. If you do need to: * Check hugo version (blogdown::hugo_version()) and compare to current release version. * blogdown::update_hugo() * update version in netlify.toml file
• Check version of academic theme: themes/hugo-academic/data/academic.toml
• If update necessary, download latest release of hugo-academic and replace your themes/hugo-academic folder
• Fix all breaking changes from hugo-academic release notes.
  • Make sure you update netlify.toml with the number that Academic theme tells you to
