feat: make post description customizable #1602

kungfux · 2024-03-10T02:05:05Z

Type of change

Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to not work as expected)

Description

I would like to have control over the post summary that appears on the Home page, in the Further Reading section, and in the RSS feed instead of the auto-generated one that is not always great for this purpose.

ref #1596
ref #1516

BREAKING CHANGE

A similar feature summary already exists and is used for RSS feed summary exclusively. However, it's support is removed with this PR and replaced by description.

Looks like a nice feature, thank you @kungfux!

I think using a description field would be a better choice because the plugin jekyll-seo-tag recognizes the page.description instead of page.summary.

I think using a description field would be a better choice because the plugin jekyll-seo-tag recognizes the page.description instead of page.summary.

I see. It's a good point. Thanks @cotes2020

I have updated PR accordingly.

To avoid breaking changes, the support of summary field remains in place and will be utilized for RSS feed exclusively when defined.

cotes2020 · 2024-03-15T22:55:45Z

Until 7.0.0 is released, feel free to submit breaking changes, the page.summary is simply defined according to the atom feed tag <summary>.

kungfux · 2024-03-15T23:23:30Z

Until 7.0.0 is released, feel free to submit breaking changes, the page.summary is simply defined according to the atom feed tag <summary>.

Ok, I have removed support of summary field to unify behavior across multiple places and marked PR with breaking changes "just in case".

cotes2020

So I've done some refactoring that

Fixed the formatting
Changed the word limit (max_length)
Show the page.description under the post title

If you have any ideas, feel free to leave a comment.

kungfux · 2024-03-17T05:51:25Z

Fixed the formatting

Not sure why there are differences between our dev environments as Prettier is configured on my end and it makes changes that you revert.

Changed the word limit (max_length)

I think it might be a good idea to make limit customizable for RSS feed from _config.yml (could be a separate PR). If you don't force people to visit your blog, limiting it to 400 characters kills the idea of using reader applications.

Show the page.description under the post title

This makes a lot of sense 👍

cotes2020 · 2024-03-17T16:18:55Z

Formatting issues

I use VSCode, and the basic configuration is in .vscode. The extension Shopify.theme-check-vscode deletes a blank line immediately after the front-matter when formatting, so to avoid this, my trick is to edit the file with two blank lines at the bottom of the second --- of the front-matter, so that the auto-formatting will leave only one blank line.

Word limit for posts in RSS feed

I think it might be a good idea to make limit customizable for RSS feed from _config.yml (could be a separate PR). If you don't force people to visit your blog, limiting it to 400 characters kills the idea of using reader applications.

According to Atom's definition of <summary>, its content is excerpted text, not the complete content. So I don't think it's appropriate to use a length of 1000, and there's also no need to customize the length of the <summary> in _config.yml.

kungfux · 2024-03-17T21:14:59Z

Formatting issues

I see where the problem is. If we want to force Shopify.theme-check-vscode to follow this formatting, then we may need to build custom rule, it seems.

Word limit for posts in RSS feed

Thanks for insights @cotes2020. You're right. I have to work with the content field and it is a matter of RSS reader to support the format and display the content followed by content.src. We are good here for now.

cotes2020

OK, that's it :)
