Posts are stored in the _posts
directory and named according to the YEAR-MONTH-DAY-title.MARKUP
format as per the usual.
Where YEAR
is a four-digit number, MONTH
and DAY
are both two-digit numbers, and MARKUP
is the file extension representing the format used in the file. For example, the following are examples of valid post filenames:
2016-07-20-writing-jekyll-posts.md
2015-01-03-static-site-generators.markdown
Recommended Front Matter Defaults:
defaults:
# _posts
- scope:
path: ""
type: posts
values:
layout: single
author_profile: true
read_time: true
comments: true
share: true
related: true
Adding the above to _config.yml
will assign the single
layout and enable: author profile, reading time, comments, [social sharing links]({{ "/docs/layouts/#social-sharing-links" | relative_url }}), and related posts, for all posts.
ProTip: Remember to write unique excerpt
descriptions for each post for improved SEO and archive listings.
