[Flex theme](https://github.com/alexandrevicenzi/Flex) 2.0 comes with new features.
|
||
|
|
In fact there are two new features.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The biggest change is localization support.
|
||
|
|
Yes, Flex now can be translated into your language.
|
||
|
|
You can read about [here](https://github.com/alexandrevicenzi/Flex/wiki/Translations).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The biggest challege was to create a way to translate without breaking old versions.
|
||
|
|
If you use English it changes nothing for you.
|
||
|
|
But if you want to use translation you need to add new lines to your pelican configuration file.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Here is a small example to use Flex in another language.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```python
|
||
|
|
# Enable i18n plugin, probably you already have some others here.
|
||
|
|
PLUGINS = ['i18n_subsites']
|
||
|
|
# Enable Jinja2 i18n extension used to parse translations.
|
||
|
|
JINJA_EXTENSIONS = ['jinja2.ext.i18n']
|
||
|
|
# Default theme language.
|
||
|
|
I18N_TEMPLATES_LANG = 'en'
|
||
|
|
# Your language.
|
||
|
|
DEFAULT_LANG = 'de'
|
||
|
|
OG_LOCALE = 'de_DE'
|
||
|
|
LOCALE = 'de_DE'
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Last but not least, Flex supports the feature "X minute read", similar [Medium](https://medium.com/).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Hope you enjoy this version.
