I am getting kicked out so I am busy with packing. I will update ASAP

Rentry Metadata dumbed down

I tried to make this as easy-to-read as possible and easier to understand
for somebody who is to this sort of thing. Please ask questions here! :)

This is all in PX, as that is what I am used to. Additionally, Metadata only
supports American English. So I suggest using color instead of colour, and so forth.


PAGE_TITLE = Welcome to my Rentry!
Default Value: The content on your page. Ex, if you have "Hi" just on it with nothing, it'll show here.
Max Length: 60 characters
A title for your paste, which is shown on the top of the tab (if on PC).


PAGE_DESCRIPTION = My Rentry page and everything about me

A description for your paste, Typically shown in browsers.
Default Value: The content on your page. Ex, if you have "Hi" just on it with nothing, it'll show here.
Max Length: 60 characters


PAGE_IMAGE = https://rentry.co/static/icons/512.png

An image that can be shown in embeds, right next to your description. (The R)
Default Value: The content on your page. Ex, if you have an image on it, it'll show here.
Max Length: 1000 width/length


PAGE_ICON = https://rentry.co/static/raccoon.web

The image that shows next to a tab. (The raccoon)


OPTION_DISABLE_VIEWS = true/false

This removes the amount of views you have.


OPTION_DISABLE_SEARCH_ENGINE = true/false

This disables your Rentry being shown on a search engine, for example, your Rentry could show up if you google Rentry and your information.


OPTION_USE_ORIGINAL_PUB_DATE = true/false

If a URL was deleted and re-created, shows the date it was first created, rather than date of re-activation.


ACCESS_RECOMMENDED_THEME = dark/light

Example, somebody's browser would default Rentry to dark; but if you set it to light, it would force it to be in light mode and vice versa.


ACCESS_EASY_READ = /example

This will show a tiny little E2R button that if you click, it will lead to another URL.
(Typically used for E2Rs, but you could generally put anything here.)


Now for the tougher stuff, everything below will change the actual look of the site.

CONTAINER_PADDING = 10px

Changing the value of this will make the inner container closer to the text/image that is at the bottom.
Default Value: 20px
Maximum pixels: 40


Lowest Value (1px)


Highest Value (40px)


CONTAINER_MAX_WIDTH = 600px

Limits and centers the content container's width, which centers all content on larger screens, instead of it aligning left.
(To put it simple, it makes the container smaller, and it centers.)

For maximum and minimum, it is 100-1600px.


(600px)


No value set


Inner Container Image/Colour

CONTAINER_INNER_FOREGROUND_COLOR = RGBA(123,123,123,0.2
)
The colour of your inner image, but it lies on top of the text. Note that if this value isn't transparent, it won't show your text/content.


This is the RGBA value in the official example.


This is just using "pink" for the value.


CONTAINER_INNER_BACKGROUND_COLOR = lavender

This sets the inner container's background colour as whatever colour you choose. It can be an RBG, hex code, or chosen from Rentry's official colours.


CONTAINER_INNER_BACKGROUND_IMAGE = https://rentry.co/static/icons/512.png

This sets the inner container's background image as whatever you choose.


CONTAINER_INNER_BACKGROUND_IMAGE_REPEAT = no-repeat

This makes your image not repeat/repeat how many times you'd like. If this value isn't set, it defaults as a constant repeat of your image.

The options are: no-repeat, repeat-x, repeat-y, round, space.


CONTAINER_INNER_BACKGROUND_IMAGE_POSITION = center

This set's the inner background image's position.

The options are: bottom, center, left, right, top.


CONTAINER_INNER_BACKGROUND_IMAGE_SIZE = contain

This gives you the option to make the image stretch or sit as large as possible without distorting/stretching.

Cover = Stretches the image.
Contain = Sits as large as possible without distorting/stretching.


Outer Foreground Image/Colour

CONTAINER_OUTER_FOREGROUND_COLOR = pink

This sets the outer foreground (foreground sits on top of background) colour.
If the value isn't a transparent colour, it will cover any background colour/image you have.


CONTAINER_OUTER_BACKGROUND_COLOR = purple

Sets the background colour as any colour you choose.


CONTAINER_OUTER_BACKGROUND_IMAGE = https://rentry.co/static/icons/512.png

This sets the background image as any image you choose.


CONTAINER_OUTER_BACKGROUND_IMAGE_REPEAT = no-repeat

This makes your image not repeat/repeat how many times you'd like. If this value isn't set, it defaults as a constant repeat of your image.

The options are: no-repeat, repeat-x, repeat-y, round, space.


CONTAINER_OUTER_BACKGROUND_IMAGE_POSITION = center

This set's the outer background image's position.

The options are: bottom, center, left, right, top.


CONTAINER_OUTER_BACKGROUND_IMAGE_SIZE = cover

This gives you the option to make the image stretch or sit as large as possible without distorting/stretching.

Cover = Stretches the image.
Contain = Sits as large as possible without distorting/stretching.


Border Images/Colour

CONTAINER_BORDER_IMAGE = https://rentry.co/static/icons/512.png

This is an image that will go around your inner container.


CONTAINER_BORDER_IMAGE_SLICE = fill

Controls how the border image should be cut up and displayed.

I recommend setting this value at 40%, if you want a full border.

Fill: No split.
Max Length: 32


CONTAINER_BORDER_IMAGE_WIDTH = 25px

Sets the width of your border image.

Max Length: 64


CONTAINER_BORDER_IMAGE_OUTSET = 10px

This allows you to set the border image to appear at the edges of the container.

Higher values = further away the image is.
Max Length: 64


CONTAINER_BORDER_IMAGE_REPEAT = stretch


CONTAINER_BORDER_COLOR = yellow

CONTAINER_BORDER_WIDTH = 20px

CONTAINER_BORDER_STYLE = dashed

CONTAINER_BORDER_RADIUS = 3px


Container Shadows

CONTAINER_SHADOW_COLOR = orange

CONTAINER_SHADOW_OFFSET = 0px 3px

CONTAINER_SHADOW_SPREAD = 3px

CONTAINER_SHADOW_BLUR = 5px


Pre-made metadata to use

CONTAINER_BORDER_IMAGE = https://rentry.co/static/icons/512.png
CONTAINER_BORDER_IMAGE_SLICE = 40%
CONTAINER_BORDER_IMAGE_WIDTH = 30px
CONTAINER_BORDER_IMAGE_REPEAT = round
CONTAINER_BORDER_RADIUS = 2px

It looks a little weird because I used the basic Rentry R.
Use a square with borders around it, to make a pretty border! :)


CONTAINER_OUTER_BACKGROUND_IMAGE = https://files.catbox.moe/5oecjm.gif
CONTAINER_OUTER_BACKGROUND_IMAGE_REPEAT = space
CONTAINER_OUTER_BACKGROUND_IMAGE_POSITION = center
CONTAINER_OUTER_BACKGROUND_IMAGE_SIZE = 150%
Make an even backround
