News Improvements to documentation for FAIRDOM-SEEK (navigation and design)

January 16, 2025

We are delighted to announce that a phase of improvements to the FAIRDOM-SEEK documentation is ready.

FAIRDOM-SEEK documentation banner

This update focuses on navigation, design and search. We are using the ELIXIR Toolkit Theme with custom styling for FAIRDOM-SEEK. All the old page paths still work. There is minimal change to the Markdown of all pages. The folder structure is the same.

  • There is a new search box at the top of all pages, with instant results.
  • There is a table of contents on the right-side to jump to headings within a page.
  • You can scroll to the top of the page with a button at the bottom-right.
  • The fonts and colours have been maintained.
  • There is a new top navigation linking to the main sections User Guide and Technical References.
  • There is a side navigation left within each section, listing all pages.
  • There is a footer navigation including more links than the top navigation.
  • The navigation adapts to mobile/tablet devices.

Your contributions are welcome

We continue to welcome contributions to the documentation, particularly from people who manage their own FAIRDOM-SEEK instance. The contribution guide has been updated to reflect the minor differences required for new pages, for example, we no longer include the .html part of the path when linking to other pages on the site.
