I have a writer’s portfolio at https://www.clippings.me/users/jordanhopkins.

BUT, I’d love to roll something similar into my own subdomain using Publii. I plan to use Mercury as the theme.

Is it possible to have “Posts” act as direct links to external websites and articles I’ve worked on? So, instead of going to a full post page, it would direct to an external link. In short, I want to create my own version of clippings.me but using Publii. Is this possible?

Thanks for the help!

It is, it requires a few changes in the theme core files and should be based on the post config option https://getpublii.com/dev/post-config-options/ where you can define the input for a URL to the external website.

Thanks Bob! I am not a dev, but will try my best to figure out soon. Appreciate the help.

I read through the article on PostConfig options. I know basic CSS, but have no idea what code to use to make a clicking on post redirect to an external link. Do you know where I could go to find a code template for this? Thanks for your time!
