dw i haven't! ur all good:) but uhmmm incredibly ineffictently is how! i've literally just copied the base html across all my pages (and have to manually update/edit everything) :,) the type of SPA i'm (eventually) implementing will just automatically insert the base code, so i can avoid what i'm currently doing! i don't know /how/ bad it currently is, but it's not the most effcient nor practical

this is the main guide i'm following to implement SPA if ur curious though!: https://dev.to/dcodeyt/building-a-single-page-app-without-frameworks-hl9 (obviously the example has a very modern styled site but i'm hoping and praying what i'm tryna do will work)

You can create a template page of your index, and just copy and paste it, but you must still edit the menu to put your links as you add more pages, or workout the file names and put them in your template before you start.

@nimravidae slay π i actually coded a python thing to generate my pages for me by inserting a header and footer. it has its limitations tho and i do want to make it better At Some Point. i hope you get your SPA thing working!!! glglgl (and hf with uni too that sounds so fun)

"and am looking into SPA stuff (i am so lost but i'll get there)" grr i hate SPA stuff bc i cant see the lil links that tell me where i am, the page.com/about or /home or /blog or whatever, and it's comforting to me to be able to manipulate that if i feel like it. it also just feels. corporate at this point? with how much it's being used for everything. it's ur site tho do whatever you want ^^ /npa

the SPA stuff i'm looking into avoids that actually!! i don't like that either:( iframes are the part that stop you from being able to yk, just copy the link and go straight to THAT page, which is why i'm deciding not to use em! (among other reasons). it's probably gonna take a little while to get the hang of since it's more complex than just chucking stuff in iframes, but to me it's worth it :]

my MAIN reason for wanting to use SPA is that I wanna have a music player with continuous playback ehehe (priorities, i know)

Really love your page design. saw you're looking to implement an mp3 player, so i designed an SCM skin in your style. https://capstasher.neocities.org/mp3player/mp3player.css take this and add it as custom skin here https://www.scmplayer.net/ . It's pretty straightforward. A note is that the skin is designed for placement at the bottom, you'll find that in the settings

I can also give you the files if you want to host them or modify them or something.
