Starlight Blog Changelog

0.22.0

Minor Changes

  • #144 93a5d70 Thanks @HiDeoo! - Adds support for defining excerpts using excerpt delimiters in blog posts. Any content above an excerpt delimiter will be used as the excerpt of a blog post.

    To learn more about excerpts, check the new “Excerpts” guide.

0.21.0

Minor Changes

  • #139 6ed1559 Thanks @HiDeoo! - Displays cover images for blog posts in pages that list blog posts such as the blog index page.

  • #139 6ed1559 Thanks @HiDeoo! - Adds a new navigation option to the blog configuration to control the type of navigation links to the blog to display on a page.

    The current behavior (header-end) to add a link to the blog before the theme switcher in the header on large viewports and a link to the mobile menu sidebar for non-blog pages on smaller viewports remains unchanged. Two new behaviors are now available:

    • header-start — Adds a link to the blog after the site title or logo in the header on large viewports. On smaller viewports, a link to the blog is added to the mobile menu sidebar for non-blog pages.
    • none — Does not add any links to the blog and it is up to the user to add links to the blog wherever they want.

Patch Changes

  • #139 6ed1559 Thanks @HiDeoo! - Fixes an inconsistency in blog post ordering for posts with the same date.

    Blog posts are now consistently ordered by their date in descending order, and then by their title in ascending order if the dates are identical.

Minor Changes

0.18.0

Minor Changes

  • #122 75dee60 Thanks @HiDeoo! - Respects Starlight convention to generate URLs with a trailing slash when using the trailingSlash: 'ignore' Astro configuration option (the default) as many common hosting providers redirect to URLs with a trailing slash by default.

  • #111 144e6b2 Thanks @HiDeoo! - ⚠️ BREAKING CHANGE: The Starlight Blog plugin no longer overrides the <Sidebar> component. If you were manually rendering starlight-blog/overrides/Sidebar.astro in a custom override, you can now remove it.

  • #111 144e6b2 Thanks @HiDeoo! - Adds a blog data object accessible on Starlight pages using Astro.locals.starlightBlog containing information about all the blog posts in your project. This can be useful for example to create a widget that lists recent blog posts on your homepage.

    See the “Blog Data” guide for more information.

  • #111 144e6b2 Thanks @HiDeoo! - Fixes a regression introduced in version 0.16.0 of the plugin where the generated RSS feed no longer included content of blog posts due to a bug in Astro.
