FAQ for building the site

Known issues

My build broke without reason

  • check that you are at the root of the directory when you use invoke to build the site.

I cannot build the article into html

Possible causes:

  • make sure that the articles that you have modified follow the format that set pelicanconf.py with {TAG}_{SLUG}.md or {TAG}_{SLUG}.html
  • you have not specified a <title> tag in the <head> node for html. Or your Title: line in markdown format is not the first line.

HTML specific issues

  • Pelican only retains the html nodes of type <body>, <title> and <meta> during parsing. Please put your <script> tags within <body> as a workaround. If you really think your CSS files are important, add the styles at theme/static/css/style.css. If your your have multiple files for CSS, open up an issue.

  • the html files rendered with many Lang:en tags. Remove lines such as <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML//EN"> `

  • there are many warnings about variants of a page. Pelican uses the title metadata / html node data as the slug and it has to be unique. If you have several pages with the same title and date, it will warn you and may quit.
