Do you prefer managing your site using a CMS? Or would you like to make it easier for someone (a non-techie, perhaps) in your team to make edits easily? If interested, follow along. Else, skip to the [next section](../organize-content/)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Let's sync your site with Tina CMS.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Prerequisites !!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Obviously you ought to have __a github account__. This is where your website source will live. Basically, Tina will read from github and write (commit) to your github repo.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{{< tip "warning" >}}
|
||
|
|
Gitlab or bitbucket will work too. Just check their [implementation here](https://Tina.io/docs/git-sync/gitlab/). Happy fishing.
|
||
|
|
{{< /tip >}}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Requirement 1 : A Tina.io account
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Jump over to [Tina.io](https://tina.io/) and sign up for an account. Consider signing up using your github account. That way, you don't have to deal with passwords.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Requirement 2: A Netlify account _(optional)_
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you intend to host with something other than Netlify _e.g github pages_, please scroll on. Hosting with Netlify is a lot of fun though; I highly recommend it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Step 1 : Fork or Clone Compose theme
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
First we will fork [this theme's](https://github.com/onweru/compose) template.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Step 2 : Add your repository in Tina CMS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{{< tip >}}
|
||
|
|
The exampleSite already comes with prefilled placeholder Tina settings. If you set up your site using [option 2](../install-theme/#option-2-recommended)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{{< /tip >}}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Edit `./static/tina/config.js` and replace tina CMS tokens with values from your own Tina account
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```json
|
||
|
|
...
|
||
|
|
clientId: "6ff9830b-b18a-4d21-b38c-cae1679e335f", // replace
|
||
|
|
token: "2954980a0db18868974dc57a66be9ecdfe6f336b", // replace
|
||
|
|
...
|
||
|
|
search: {
|
||
|
|
...
|
||
|
|
tina: {
|
||
|
|
indexerToken: "977c145439dda036080dd7a33478d2ba385ab5af", // replace
|
||
|
|
stopwordLanguages: ["deu", "eng", "fra", "ita", "spa", "nld"] // consider adding or removing languages https://github.com/fergiemcdowall/stopword#language-code
|
||
|
|
},
|
||
|
|
...
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
...
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Go to your [Tina](https://tina.io/) account
