AutoPage for Tag structured data Page 1 of 1

TL;DR: how RDFaL and HTML interact.

For a while now, I have been working on my Jekyll theme, structRDFaL, which is meant to make generating structured data in accordance with schema.org easier. As stated, improving SEO for your site is a secondary concern for paying attention to schemas. It should be about best practices and being a good netizen with just a little bit more effort.

So, I was working on implementing the Book schema and had gotten pages and posts working with test data off the top of my head. I had put a hook in for book lists and decided that this would be a good place to test out Jekyll collections.

The Building Blocks

One of the main goals of creating this new theme is to synthesize from best practices and standards and such. The big pieces were structured data, HTML5, CSS3, and responsive web design. While searching around for HTML5 stuff, I hit upon HTML5 Boilerplate which seemed to me to be an excellent starting place.

So, I was transferring about 5 blogs from Drupal to Jekyll. On Drupal, I had chosen a single theme and just varied the base colours and called it a day. With the move, I thought I would have more fun, pick a different theme from somewhere for each blog. Sounds like fun, no? These gem themes are almost drag and drop, right?? Maybe... If you like exactly what you get out of the box...
