\description{
Your \code{NEWS.md} is parsed in to sections based on your use of headings.
}
\details{
The \code{NEWS.md} file should be formatted with level one headings (\verb{#})
containing the package name and version number, level two headings (\verb{##})
with topic headings and lists of news bullets. Commonly used level two
headings include 'Major changes', 'Bug fixes', or 'Minor changes'.\preformatted{# pkgdown 0.1.0.9000
## Major changes
- Fresh approach based on the staticdocs package. Site configuration now based
on YAML files.
}
If the package is available on CRAN, release dates will be added to versions
in level-one headings, and "Unreleased" will be added versions that are not on
CRAN.
Issues and contributors mentioned in news items are automatically linked to
github if a \code{URL} entry linking to github.com is provided in the package
\code{DESCRIPTION}.\preformatted{## Major changes
- Lots of bug fixes (@hadley, #100)
}
}
\section{YAML config}{
To automatically link to release announcements, include a \code{releases}
section.\preformatted{news:
releases:
- text: "usethis 1.3.0"
href: https://www.tidyverse.org/articles/2018/02/usethis-1-3-0/
- text: "usethis 1.0.0 (and 1.1.0)"
href: https://www.tidyverse.org/articles/2017/11/usethis-1.0.0/
}
Control whether news is present on one page or multiple pages with the
\code{one_page} field. The default is \code{true}.\preformatted{news:
one_page: false
}
Suppress the default addition of CRAN release dates with:\preformatted{news:
