Layout selection

A layout defines a set of templates and resources that are used to generate the site. The layouts are usually stored under 00:layout. A layout may include:

• Pandoc templates.
• Translations for the templates.
• CSS files.
• Other files that go into site resources.

To select a layout for the site:

• Define the active attribute on the 00:00.config page to select the active configuration. The attribute represents a Zim path relative to 00:00.config, for example with active: "example" we select the configuration page 00:00.config:example.
• Define the layout attribute on the 00:00.config:example page. The attribute represents an absolute Zim path to the page with the layout definition, for example layout: "00:layout:w3css".
• Define the templates for the site as attachments of the page defined in the layout attribute.
• Define the transaltions for the template variables in subpages of the layout page.
