Inside this folder we will be creating a new file called <code>navigation.yml</code>. The contents of this file will contain all your navigation links and they are rendered like so:</p> + <pre><code>- title: Home -url: / +url: / - title: Articles -url: /articles/ +url: /articles/ - title: About -url: /about/ +url: /about/ </code></pre> -<h2>Dynamically Rendering the Navigation</h2> + +<h2 id="dynamically-rendering-the-navigation">Dynamically Rendering the Navigation</h2> + <p>The next and final step is rendering out the navigation with a simple loop:</p> + <pre><code>{% for item in site.data.navigation %} - <li> - <a href="{{ item.url }}"><span>{{ item.title }}</span></a> - </li> + <li> + <a href="{{ item.url }}"><span>{{ item.title }}</span></a> + </li> {% endfor %} </code></pre> -<h2>Highlight Current Page</h2> -<p>It's also very easy to extend this method to add a CSS class based on whether a user is on the currently selected page or not:</p> + +<h2 id="highlight-current-page">Highlight Current Page</h2> + +<p>It’s also very easy to extend this method to add a CSS class based on whether a user is on the currently selected page or not:</p> + <pre><code>{% for item in site.data.navigation %} - <li> + <li> {% if item.url == page.url %} - <a class="active" href="{{ item.url }}"><span>{{ item.title }}</span></a> + <a class="active" href="{{ item.url }}"><span>{{ item.title }}</span></a> {% else %} - <a href="{{ item.url }}"><span>{{ item.title }}</span></a> + <a href="{{ item.url }}"><span>{{ item.title }}</span></a> {% endif %} - </li> + </li> {% endfor %} -</code></pre> -<pre><code>/* Custom styling for active class */ + + + +/* Custom styling for active class */ li a.active { color: red; } </code></pre> + <p>Congrats!
