## To Do
* Look at side / margin notes and just use footnotes everywhere, possibly using [[BigfootJS]]
-
* Integrate [[Micro.blog]] [sidebar.js embed](https://help.micro.blog/2016/sidebar-js/) on the home page

I'm using the Marfa theme from [[Micro.blog]] for my site [blog.bmannconsulting.com](https://blog.bmannconsulting.com). My fork is public here: https://github.com/bmann/theme-marfa
+
+
## To Do
+
+
Also from internet-weblog, look at the [yearly grouping](https://github.com/jnjosh/internet-weblog/blob/master/layouts/partials/yearly_grouping.html) for the archive page. Live example on the authors blog: https://jnjosh.com/posts/. Archive as is right now, with giant list of Categories and then boring post list, is definitely bad.
+
+
Post pages have avatar and microblog at the bottom. Change this to ???
+
+
Home page has avatar and "follow on Mb" links. Change to ???
+
+
No pagination on Photos page. Remove and replace with a new / different photos layout.
+
+
## Done
+
+
The "Call to Action" (CTA) on single posts in the upper right hand corner points to Mb -- point it at bmannconsulting for now.
+
+
Footer link to Mb, point it at bmannconsulting for now.
+
+
Moved custom footer partial inside the **actual** footer, rather than just blank text at the end of the page.
+
+
Looking at [internet-weblog theme](https://github.com/jnjosh/internet-weblog) for ideas, adding categories to posts.

https://micro.blog
A hosted microblogging service that uses [[Hugo]] static site generator underneath. Supports [[IndieWeb]], [[Micropub]], [[ActivityPub]] and more independent and open web protocols.

I pay for an account to [run my microblog](https://microblog.bmannconsulting.com).
[[Recommended]] for people who want to run a blog on their own domain, while still being able to cross post to Twitter, LinkedIn, Medium, and other platform spaces.

[[Micro.blog]] has a [help page about custom themes](https://help.micro.blog/2019/about-themes/). Looks like the Blank theme needs to get merged in for files like `custom_footer.html` to exist.
-
Looks like custom footer was the only one missing.

Logging marfa theme edits:
-
* CTA on single posts in the upper right hand corner to Mb -- point it at bmannconsulting or remove?
-
* Footer link to Mb, point it at bmannconsulting or remove?
-
* Moved custom footer partial inside the **actual** footer, rather than just blank text at the end of the page
-
* Looking at internet-weblog theme for ideas, adding categories to posts
Looking at Mb plugins. Found [[BigfootJS]] again via the [Mb plugin for Bigfoot](https://github.com/jsonbecker/plugin-bigfoot). Probably better for me to use on this site rather than the super custom margin / side notes.
Enabled the [OpenGraph plugin](https://github.com/thatguygriff/plugin-open-graph) so I get social previews.

Looks like custom footer was the only one missing. I'll keep track of edits to it on the [[Marfa Theme]] notes page.

Added a Blog category to the navigation, for all the actual blog posts with titles, rather than just short social ones.
