Updating Octopress Theme
The themes are stored in .themes/<name>
, we can use the rake command to update either the source or style, as documented in the office website. However, the syntax should be more clear, i.e.,
Without the brackets, it defaults to .themes/classic
.
Caveats:
- Do NOT use
rake install
to install the theme again, since it will overwrite the whole thing, including the files insource/_include/custom
directory. - When working on the blog, anything outside of
source/_include/custom
should be considered the theme. Thus, do not make changes directly insource
. Make changes to theme and update the theme to reflect the changes to the blog.
