Modify

---

Modify _config.yml file with your own info.
Especially the section:

Deployment

Replace to your own repo!

deploy:
  type: git
  repo: https://github.com/<yourAccount>/<repo>
  branch: <your-branch>

Sidebar settings

Copy your avatar image to <root>/img/ and modify the _config.yml:

sidebar: true    # whether or not using Sidebar.
sidebar-about-description: "<your description>"
sidebar-avatar: img/<your avatar path>

and activate your personal widget you like

widgets:         # here are widget you can use, you can comment out
- featured-tags
- short-about
- recent-posts
- friends-blog
- archive
- category

if you want to add sidebar widget, please add at layout/_widget.

Signature Setup

Copy your signature image to <root>/img/signature and modify the _config.yml:

signature: true   # show signature
signature-img: img/signature/<your-signature-ID>

Go to top icon Setup

My icon is using iron man, you can change to your own icon at css/image.

Post tag

You can decide to show post tags or not.

home_posts_tag: true

Markdown render

My markdown render engine plugin is hexo-renderer-markdown-it.

# Markdown-it config
## Docs: https://github.com/celsomiranda/hexo-renderer-markdown-it/wiki
markdown:
  render:
    html: true
    xhtmlOut: false
    breaks: true
    linkify: true
    typographer: true
    quotes: '“”‘’'

and if you want to change the header anchor 'ℬ', you can go to layout/post.ejs to change it.

async("https://cdn.bootcss.com/anchor-js/1.1.1/anchor.min.js",function(){
        anchors.options = {
          visible: 'hover',
          placement: 'left',
          icon: ℬ // this is the header anchor "unicode" icon
        };

Hexo Basics

---

Some hexo command:

hexo new post "<post name>" # you can change post to another layout if you want
hexo clean && hexo generate # generate the static file
hexo server # run hexo in local environment
hexo deploy # hexo will push the static files automatically into the specific branch(gh-pages) of your repo!

Have fun ^_^
