The second blog update - summaries of posts, and retheming!
I've rethemed the website! The purple theme that I was using, which was the Aura theme by Dalton Menezes, had been used for a bit too long, and I don't think it really suited the website. So, I replaced it with the colours from the citruszest theme, which I think looks a lot nicer. I also sorted out the title so there is a separator between it and the blog, and the h1 is a little bigger (1.35em instead of 1.1em) which makes it stand out a little more.
I also added into the kmd script, the ability for a fourth line to be added underneath the title, date, and tags, which is a summary line. Another time, I'll change the index pages to show these where they exist, and change it from a simple (and slightly ugly) table layout.
I'm pleased with how it looks. I wish I had taken a before and after snapshot to show it here... I don't version the site either with Git anymore, so it's difficult to revert to the previous version to see. Oh well, next time.
I've also added a few things behind the scenes, like Open Graph references etc. I plan to do more of this, e.g. implement IndieWeb standards, like h-card etc., over time. It's not too pressing for me, though.
