# Varia website
## Cloning
The folder 'plugins' is linked to the Pelican project '[pelican-plugins](https://github.com/getpelican/pelican-plugins/commit/443739890a96125f4cfa796972a7b53119df89ff)' repository. To clone both the varia.website and pelican-plugins repository, add the --recurse-submodules option in your git clone command:
`git clone https://git.vvvvvvaria.org/varia/varia.website.git --recurse-submodules`
## Update submodules
We are currently using two submodules:
* plugins ([https://github.com/getpelican/pelican-plugins](https://github.com/getpelican/pelican-plugins))
* plugins-custom ([https://git.vvvvvvaria.org/rra/plugins-custom](https://git.vvvvvvaria.org/rra/plugins-custom))
To update these submodules within your (already) cloned repository, first init the submodule, and then update it:
cd /path/to/submodule
git submodule init
git submodule update
## Posting Content
We're using a platform called pelican to generate static websites. The main way to add content to the website is by making 'posts' in the folder `content`
This can be done either locally or via the gitlab page by creating a new file.
Make sure that each article contains at least the following at the top of the document:
Title: een nieuw initiatief
Date: 2017-07-07 18:32
Category: news
slug: the name of the html page
lang: nl or en
Articles are written in a language called markdown. [Here](https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax) is an overview of the syntax. You can also use the online editor in gitlab to help you.
