## Unreleased version
- Add YAML option `head-extra` which is similar to `footer-extra` but is used to include custom HTML code in a page's `<head>` tag
- Add automatic navbar color detection (#702)
- Change navbar and footer background colour to be slightly darker, for better contrast with white page background
- Change the behaviour of `site-css` to include site-wide CSS file **before** page-specific files
- Rename internal css/js files from "main" to "beautifuljekyll" to make it easier for users to troubleshoot
- **BREAKING CHANGE** A lot of time was spent on rethinking the entire SEO and social media sharing model. It was redesigned to be more simple and customizable. The new documentation has a section dedicated to SEO and social media sharing of a page. Unfortunately some changes had to be made that are not backwards-compatible:
- Renamed `description` YAML option to `share-description` to be more clear
- Renamed `description` config parameter to `rss-description` since it was only used in RSS (the FAQ in the README explains the different between YAML options and config parameters if you're confused!)
- Removed YAML option `use-site-title` (you can now specify the exact title using `share-title`)
- Removed undocumented YAML options `meta-title` and `meta-description`
- Added `share-title` YAML option to give control over the search engine/social media title
- Added `head-extra` YAML option which is similar to `footer-extra` but is used to include custom HTML code in a page's `<head>` tag
- Added automatic navbar color detection (#702)
- Added better SEO and social media sharing by adding a `share-title` YAML option and utilizing the `description` option
- Changed navbar and footer background colour to be slightly darker, for better contrast with white page background
- Changed the behaviour of `site-css` to include site-wide CSS file **before** page-specific files
- Renamed internal css/js files from "main" to "beautifuljekyll" to make it easier for users to troubleshoot
