👻 Ghostring 👻

This is a webring for horror/witchy themed sites.

It also serves as an example for how to configure and use the ringfairy webring generator. You can use this repo as a starting point to launch your own webring!

How to Join

The only required information is your site's URL and your desired slug (a keyword for your site, e.g. "kersed" for kersed.net).

Optionally, you can also include the following for your site listing:

Full title of your site
A brief description of your site
Some form of contact info (email, fedi, neocities, etc)
If you have one, your RSS link

Include your information by adding a new entry to websites.json in a pull request.

JSON Example

    {
        "name": "Example Website",
        "slug": "example",
        "about": "I'm an example!!! ",
        "url": "https://example.com/",
        "rss": "https://example.com/index.xml"
        "owner": "person@example.com"
    }

Webring HTML

After that, add the webring HTML somewhere on your site, like the sidebar or footer. Remember to replace "YOUR_SLUG" with your actual slug:

<a href="https://ghostring.neocities.org/YOUR_SLUG/previous"><-</a><a href="https://ghostring.neocities.org/">Ghostring</a><a href="https://ghostring.neocities.org/YOUR_SLUG/next">-></a>

It's crucial that every site in the webring has these links (with their slug) accessible on the front page. Ringfairy will only add your site to the webring if the links can automatically be found. Without the proper links, the ring structure would be broken, and that site would need to be removed from the list.

Cloning

You may clone this repo if you want a starting point for your own ringfairy-based webring, or if you want to make a backup/mirror of Ghostring.

You can create your own webring by replacing websites.json with your own list of sites, and editing the HTML/CSS files in the /data folder!
