About this repo

This repo is the source for http://borderlandsmodding.com/

Editing should be pretty straightforward:

• The links at the top of the page, and on the sidebar, are defined in _data/navigation.yml
• The links at the bottom of the page are defined in _config.yml
• Pages are in _pages; just follow how the other ones look. Be sure to put a permalink up in the top like all the other current pages do
• Blog-like posts are kept in _posts - stick to the naming convention in there of YYYY-MM-DD-title.md, and be sure to include a top-level heading (using markdown's #).
• The site uses the repo BLCM/modding-web-theme for its Jekyll theme (which is the thing Github Pages uses to generate the site). If you were looking to change something cosmetic on the site, that'd be the place to do it. Note that if you change something in the theme, you'll have to then make another commit in this repo in order to pick up the change; it won't automatically apply to the site if just the theme is updated.

Note: After you've pushed a change here, it will be a few tens of seconds before the "live" page is updated, so be patient. Be careful when editing any of the *.yml files; if you screw those up, changes will stop showing up on the main site. So if you're editing those and nothing's changed after 30 seconds or so, you may want to revert your changes.

I'd personally intend for the blog-like posts to be primarily about more major things that happen, rather than trying to detail every little thing. New releases of UCP or BLCMM should be mentioned in there, for instance, and "exciting" things like Borderlands Commander which open up new avenues of modding. The recent chaos with the BL2+TPS UHD packs would be another good example of a case where a post might be a good idea, just to have a summary URL to point users to.
