Re: [nikola-discuss] How is main_index set for non-blog sites?

[Roberto Alsina]

It's probably easiest to just tweak the theme so it does what you want :-)

Hi,

I'm trying to apply the canterville theme to a site (not a blog), so have moved blog posts to /blog and pages to / as suggested in the documentation. The canterville theme includes a banner on pages labelled as 'main_index'...

    % if 'main_index' in pagekind and BANNER_URL :

    <header class="main-header" style="background-image: url(${BANNER_URL})">

Unfortunately, the main_index, and associated banner, now appears in /blog/index.html not in /index.html. Is there anything I can add to my pages/index.rst to force that one's index.html to be a main_index? Simply adding the metadata .. pagekind: main_index didn't work; perhaps it was overridden somewhere(?).

Thanks,

Angus
