Body & Hero Classes

The Quark theme has the ability to allow pages to override some of the default options by letting the user set body_classes for any page. The theme will merge the combination of the defaults with any body_classes set. This allows you to easily add hero classes to give your blog post some bling.

Body Classes

body_classes: "header-dark header-transparent"

On a particular page will ensure that page has those options enabled (assuming they are false by default).

Hero Options

The hero template allows some options to be set in the page frontmatter. This is used by the modular hero as well as the blog and item templates to provide a more dynamic header.

hero_classes: text-light title-h1h2 parallax overlay-dark-gradient hero-large
hero_image: road.jpg
hero_align: center

The hero_classes option allows a variety of hero classes to be set dynamically these include:

• text-light | text-dark - Controls if the text should be light or dark depending on the content
• title-h1h2 - Enforced a close matched h1/h2 title pairing
• parallax - Enables a CSS-powered parallax effect
• overlay-dark-gradient - Displays a transparent gradient which further darkens the underlying image
• overlay-light-gradient - Displays a transparent gradient which further lightens the underlying image
• overlay-dark - Displays a solid transparent overlay which further darkens the underlying image
• overlay-light - Displays a solid transparent overlay which further darkens the underlying image
• hero-fullscreen | hero-large | hero-medium | hero-small | hero-tiny - Size of the hero block

The hero_image should point to an image file in the current page folder.
