Layout settings and more in _config.yml

All of the dactl’s configurations has to be set in _config.yml file. Read on for explanation of all of the features that you can toggle, including configuring the layout.

I’ve split dactl’s _config.yml into two parts. First part should be configured by you, second contains important Jekyll & build settings and you should leave it alone, unless you know what you are doing.

Let’s go through each line in the first, configurable part:
