There are two ways to configure the blog strings:
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Edit `bb.sh` and modify the variables in the `global_variables()` function
|
|
|
-- Create a `.config` file with your configuration values (useful if you don't want to touch the script). You can find

|
+- Create a `.config` file with your configuration values (useful if you don't want to touch the script)
|
|
|
|
|
|
The software will load the values in the script first, then overwrite them with the values in the `.config` file.
|
|
|
This means that you don't need to define all variables in the config file, only those which you need to override
|
|
|
from the defaults.
|
|
|
|
|
|
+The format of the `.config` file is just one `variablename="value"` per line, just like in the `global_variables()`
|
|
|
+function. Remember to quote the values, do not declare a variable with the dollar sign, and do not use spaces around the
|
|
|
+equal sign.
