  • **As our website is newly launched, to avoid website collapse, please create your own branch for modification, and then make a pull request.:) Sorry for the inconvience. I will frequently check and examine the request. **

    • tips: you can find a preview link in your github request page in 2 minutes after pulling a request, if no errors in your files. If it shows 'fail to preview', you can use error logs for debugging. :)
    • tips: If you would like to use the above method to debug, pls contain "testing" in your request topic so that I won't merge it.

    Create a folder, e.g. '/content/publication/$YOURNAME_PAPERNAME', copy a template index.md and cite.bib from '/content/publication/my_conference_paper' folder and modify it. You can save a feature picture as 'featured.jpg' (or 'featured.jpg') in your folder.

    <meta http-equiv = "refresh" content = " 0 ; url = yourURL"/>

Debugging tips:

  • Building: YAML, mapping values are not allowed in this context
