What is a webring?

A webring is a community of sites around a common topic linked together in a loop, where each site links to the next and previous ones, making it easy to browse through related content.

How to join

To join the webring, open a pull request and supply the name and URL of your site. If you publish a RSS feed, you can provide that as well.

If you don't have a Github account, you can also use this form to sign up. The webring admins will then look at your site and handle your request.

This webring accepts

If you think you belong here, chances are you do. Developers, designers, and digital creatives from Landmark University, whether current students or alumni, are welcome. Being listed requires:

  • A connection to Landmark University
  • A personal website
  • Using our webring code somewhere on your website

List the webring on your website

Once you've joined the ring, copy this code snippet into your site:

<webring-banner>
    <p>Member of <a href="https://webring.landmarkirl.xyz">LMU Webring</p>
    <a href="https://webring.landmarkirl.xyz/prev">Previous</a>
    <a href="https://webring.landmarkirl.xyz/random">Random</a>
    <a href="https://webring.landmarkirl.xyz/next">Next</a>
</webring-banner>
<script async src="https://webring.landmarkirl.xyz/embed.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

It will render this banner that links to the other members:

Member of LMU Webring

Previous Random Next

If you want more control or to create a custom banner, copy and paste the below html snippet somewhere on your website:

<nav class="webring" aria-labelledby="webring">
  <h2 id="webring">LMU Webring</h2>
  <p>This site is part of <a rel="external" href="https://webring.landmarkirl.xyz/">LMU Webring</a>.</p>
  <ul>
    <li><a rel="external" href="https://webring.landmarkirl.xyz/prev">Previous website</a></li>
    <li><a rel="external" href="https://webring.landmarkirl.xyz/random">Random website</a></li>
    <li><a rel="external" href="https://webring.landmarkirl.xyz/next">Next website</a></li>
  </ul>
</nav>

You can style the presentation of this code however you like, as long as it's done in an accessible way.

Webring links placement

I'm okay if you'd prefer people to land on your main landing page first, with the webring links placed elsewhere on the site, as long as they can be easily found within one click.
