If there’s one thing I learned since I signed up on 03/30/2013 5:43:35 AM, it’s that #updates takes up too much of my time.

LaTeX theme - [preview] [code] [magnusthemes]

Make your blog look like an average engineering school homework report with this LaTeX theme. Happy April Fools’!

Features:

  • Fully functional and minimal no-frills theme
  • 540px posts only, responsive on smaller screens
  • No infinite scroll, like/reblog buttons, tags, search bar, images……
  • Nothing is customizable because you should put the focus on your content and not the design  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Notes:

  • To add links, make a new page and check “show a link to this page”. Links will appear automagically
  • Computer Modern font by dreampulse
  • Credit for the photoset CSS goes to the amazing @annasthms and @espoirthemes

I made my blog look like an average engineering school report for the luls. It will be reverted back at the end of today

EDIT: If you wanna use the LaTeX theme, here you go

Using Google spreadsheets with page themes

This tutorial will try to explain how I built my SUCCULENT page using Google spreadsheet data to generate the html items.

How we’ll be doing that (short version):

Create a spreadsheet, fetch the data from your spreadsheet, organise it into and insert it into an html template that we’ll then use to generate the html content for every row in your sheet.

Requires at least basic javascript/coding knowledge, maybe more.

Disclaimer: There’s probably a better or more optimised way of doing this. I’m still learning the ropes with Javascript myself and this tutorial is based off my own page and may not work with every layout without further modification.

Map:

1. Create a google spreadsheet
2. Get the spreadsheet ID
3. Set the spreadsheet ID
4. Fetching the data from the json feed & organising it.
5. Create your html template & add the content

Tl;dr: You can copy/paste this code and jump to 5. where you will have to modify the code for your own purposes. But PLEASE before you ask questions, do read the entire thing.

If you have any suggestions regarding explanations or how to improve the code or bugs please let me know!

To the people who think having two credit links is absurd, well, I mean, when I code a theme from scratch, I can put whatever amount of credit links I want, and you can’t just pick and choose which ones to keep. If you don’t like that, you’re free to unfollow me/not use my stuff etc no one’s forcing you to use my stuff. Send all the anon hate you want, I don’t care, y’all haters can choke lol

To the replies on the original posts, I love you guys. 

Bye

lmao

Lmao guys if y’all wanna remove my credit, it’s probably not the best idea to make a Reddit post to get people to do it for you… I do have a Reddit account and yes I do scroll through r/web_design once in a while.

Anonymous inquired: Thank you for the update to Nocturne! The green "connection is secure" icon makes me feel very safe and cozy in the blog. <3

You’re welcome! The old Nocturne was honestly very badly coded (not just the secure thing) and in need of a refreshment.. hope you’ll enjoy the new features too <3
