Writing a New Post

Thursday, Aug 8, 2019

This tutorial will guide you how to write a post in the Chirpy template, and it’s worth reading even if you’ve used Jekyll before, as many features require specific variables to be set.

Naming and Path

Create a new file named YYYY-MM-DD-TITLE.EXTENSION{: .filepath} and put it in the _posts{: .filepath} of the root directory. Please note that the EXTENSION{: .filepath} must be one of md{: .filepath} and markdown{: .filepath}. If you want to save time of creating files, please consider using the plugin Jekyll-Compose to accomplish this.
