Customization

Lenore is easy to customize and everything you want to customize is commented in the file you need to edit.

Stylesheets

The CSS has a table of contents and comments labeled inline. Want to change the link color? Find it in the table of contents and search for it. It's this easy:

a {
	color: #4b87aa; /*<==11*/
	text-decoration: none;
	transition: all 0.25s;
}
a:hover,
a:focus,
a:active{
	color: #068bd8; /*<==12*/
}

Or how about the max-width of post content?

article {
 max-width: 34rem; /*<==06*/
}

Social Sharing

There are also a number of social sharing links in post.hbs. By default only 5 are enabled. To enable or disable different networks, simply uncomment them by removing the handlebars around the <li> elements:

{{!--REDDIT
	<li><a class="reddit" href="http://www.reddit.com/submit/?url={{@blog.url}}{{url}}">reddit</a></li>
--}}

becomes:

<li>
  <a class="reddit" href="http://www.reddit.com/submit/?url={{@blog.url}}{{url}}">
    reddit
  </a>
</li>

All social networks have a helper class for ease of styling. In total there are 19 sharing options provided.
