Multiauthor support

Open oshliaer opened this issue 7 years ago • 10 comments

I have a solution based on hugo-multi-author for Mainroad. May I add this to Mainroad theme?

I want to give feedback from other users.

Also, I need time to understand how this works, alternative solutions, etc.

I don't insist on this. But it would be great to have such an opportunity. If you have an alternative, I would be happy to implement it.

@Vimux, Does Mainroad has a concept? Is it a blog of one author? Can we add static pages? Can we use projects' lists?

Mainroad master must remain with the minimum number of dependencies and additional features (like mathJax, Font Awesome, etc). #39

I think multiauthor is a useful feature, you can specify the author of the post. By the way, there is example of multiauthor box. The BluestNight theme is developed by Michael Bryant based on Mainroad.

I would welcome a feature for multiple authors, too.

Multiauthor may play nicely with #64. My PR would allow to add the author to the meta data list. What do you think?

I modify some field base on Mainroad...， I always feel this theme is very simple and pure，Thanks author。 my demo site: https://youendless.com

OK. There is a sample https://codingnconcepts.com/hugo/multiple-authors-hugo/

I think I can close the topic because I'm very agree with https://github.com/Vimux/Mainroad/issues/179#issuecomment-599536745

@contributorpw,

My opinion hasn't changed over the years (my point from https://github.com/Vimux/Mainroad/issues/179#issuecomment-599536745 still the same), but let's leave that open if you don't mind.

Just as a reminder. I am not planning to change anything in this area, but it will be easier to find this issue for novices.
