Sites that may have content authored from various individuals can be accommodated by using [data files](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/datafiles/).
|
|
|
|
To attribute an author to a post or page that is different from the site author specified in `_config.yml`:
|
|
|
|
**Step 1.** Create `_data/authors.yml` and add authors using the following format. Anything variables found under `author` in `_config.yml` can be used (e.g. `name`, `bio`, `avatar`, author `links`, etc.).
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# /_data/authors.yml
|
|
|
|
Billy Rick:
|
|
name : "Billy Rick"
|
|
bio : "What do you want, jewels? I am a very extravagant man."
|
|
avatar : "/assets/images/bio-photo-2.jpg"
|
|
links:
|
|
- label: "Email"
|
|
icon: "fas fa-fw fa-envelope-square"
|
|
url: "mailto:billyrick@rick.com"
|
|
- label: "Website"
|
|
icon: "fas fa-fw fa-link"
|
|
url: "https://thewhip.com"
|
|
- label: "Twitter"
|
|
icon: "fab fa-fw fa-twitter-square"
|
|
url: "https://twitter.com/extravagantman"
|
|
|
|
Cornelius Fiddlebone:
|
|
name : "Cornelius Fiddlebone"
|
|
bio : "I ordered what?"
|
|
avatar : "/assets/images/bio-photo.jpg"
|
|
links:
|
|
- label: "Email"
|
|
icon: "fas fa-fw fa-envelope-square"
|
|
url: "mailto:cornelius@thewhip.com"
|
|
- label: "Twitter"
|
|
icon: "fab fa-fw fa-twitter-square"
|
|
url: "https://twitter.com/rhymeswithsackit"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Step 2.** Assign one of the authors in `authors.yml` to a post or page you wish to override the `site.author` with.
|
|
|
|
Example: To assign `Billy Rick` as an author for a post the following YAML Front Matter would be applied:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
author: Billy Rick
|
|
``` |
