I'm new to Sphinx, and I'd like to create a custom title page. I have
figured out how I can suppress the title page by adding 'maketitle': ' ',
in the conf.py file, but how do I replace it with a custom cover page?
And If I can, what format doe sit have to be in?
I'm using the "howto" sphinx template.
Sphinx uses its own custom front page in https://bitbucket.org/birkenfeld/sphinx/src/tip/doc/conf.py by doing;
html_sidebars = {‘index’: [‘indexsidebar.html’, ‘searchbox.html’]} html_additional_pages = {‘index’: ‘index.html’}
documented at http://sphinx-doc.org/config.html#confval-html_additional_pages and http://sphinx-doc.org/config.html#confval-html_sidebars]
where index.html and indexsidebar.html are in https://bitbucket.org/birkenfeld/sphinx/src/tip/doc/_templates/
It also uses:
master_doc = ‘contents’
to rename the Sphinx generated main file.
