RenderCV Classic Theme — Known Quirks and Patterns

Education

• Degree field wraps badly if text is long. Use abbreviations: BS not Bachelor of Science.

Work Experience

• Dual roles at same company: Combine into one entry with a slash separator in the title field.
  • Good: Practice Manager / Technical Architect
  • Bad: Two separate entries with duplicate date ranges (looks broken in output)

Projects

• Project URLs render best as Name — [domain.com](url) format in the name field rather than a separate URL field.

Design Options

• show_top_note: false under design.page removes the "Last updated on ..." text from the header.
• Available built-in themes: classic, engineeringclassic, engineeringresumes, moderncv, sb2nov

Phone Numbers

• Must be in international format: +1-xxx-xxx-xxxx
• Local format (e.g., (555) 123-4567) causes a validation error at render time.
