Say Hello to Grav!

installation successful...

Congratulations! You have installed the Base Grav Package that provides a simple page and the default Quark theme to get you started.

!! If you see a 404 Error when you click Typography in the menu, please refer to the troubleshooting guide.

Find out all about Grav

  • Learn about Grav by checking out our dedicated Learn Grav site.
  • Download plugins, themes, as well as other Grav skeleton packages from the Grav Downloads page.
  • Check out our Grav Development Blog to find out the latest goings on in the Grav-verse.

!!! If you want a more full-featured base install, you should check out Skeleton packages available in the downloads.

Edit this Page

To edit this page, simply navigate to the folder you installed Grav into, and then browse to the user/pages/01.home folder and open the default.md file in your editor of choice. You will see the content of this page in Markdown format.

Create a New Page

Creating a new page is a simple affair in Grav. Simply follow these simple steps:

  1. Navigate to your pages folder: user/pages/ and create a new folder. In this example, we will use explicit default ordering and call the folder 03.mypage.

  2. Launch your text editor and paste in the following sample code:

    ---
    title: My New Page
    ---
    # My New Page!
    
    This is the body of **my new page** and I can easily use _Markdown_ syntax here.
  3. Save this file in the user/pages/03.mypage/ folder as default.md. This will tell Grav to render the page using the default template.

  4. That is it! Reload your browser to see your new page in the menu.

! NOTE: The page will automatically show up in the Menu after the "Typography" menu item. If you wish to change the name that shows up in the Menu, simple add: menu: My Page between the dashes in the page content. This is called the YAML front matter, and it is where you configure page-specific options.
