Writing a New Post

Naming and Path

Create a new file name with the format YYYY-MM-DD-title.md then put it into _post of the root directory.

Front Matter

Basically, you need to fill the Front Matter as below at the top of the post:

---
title: TITLE
date: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS +/-TTTT
categories: [TOP_CATEGORIE, SUB_CATEGORIE]
tags: [TAG]
---

Note: The posts’ layout has been set to post by default, so there is no need to add the variable layout in Front Matter block.

• Categories and Tags

  The categories of each post is designed to contain up to two elements, and the number of elements in tag can be zero or infinite.

Table of Contents

By default, the Table of Contents (TOC) is displayed on the right panel of the post. If you want to turn it off globally, go to _config.yml and set the variable toc to false. If you want to turn off TOC for specific post, add the following to post’s Front Matter:

---
toc: false
---

Comments

Similar to TOC, the Disqus comments is loaded by default in each post, and the global switch is defined by variable comments in file _config.yml . If you want to close the comment for specific post, add the following to the Front Matter of the post:

---
comments: false
---
