From cfbc68867bf76be36bb80f3fbec65de58921e559 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mich_V87 Date: Fri, 7 Nov 2025 15:19:20 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Update CUSTOMIZE.md (#3340) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Hello, the repository owner. al-folio has been extremely amazing and very easy to set up—sincere thanks to you and the contributors. I've found one way that works on my end, where I can retain those very useful page files, while I currently do not have enough content to fill them in. I might be wrong, but my site has been updating correctly. I hope that I could be able to contribute to this customization guide and provide a solution for those users who want to continuously use this to display their content as they gain more professional experiences later. Thank you. --- CUSTOMIZE.md | 22 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 22 insertions(+) diff --git a/CUSTOMIZE.md b/CUSTOMIZE.md index cae173a..8e2bf21 100644 --- a/CUSTOMIZE.md +++ b/CUSTOMIZE.md @@ -248,6 +248,28 @@ To remove the repositories, you can: - delete the repositories page [\_pages/repositories.md](_pages/repositories.md) - delete [\_includes/repository/](_includes/repository/) directory +### You can also remove pages through commenting out front-matter blocks + +For `.md` files in [\pages](pages/) directory, if you do not want to completely edit or delete them but save for later use, you can temporarily disable these variables.

Across the millennia, an author is speaking clearly and silently inside your head, directly to you.

The [lighthouse-badger documentation](https://github.com/MyActionWay/lighthouse-badger-workflows#lighthouse-badger-easyyml) specifies using an environment variable, but using it as a secret is more secure and appropriate for a PAT.
