Ordering photos
I'm fine with the chronological order of photos in the general feed, but I have a few tagged portfolios that I would like to display in a fixed order. I know date/time labeling them in the filename will do this, but then that date/time is displayed on screen. Is there a way to order them whilst hiding the date and maintaining a caption, which will also be in the filename? I tried using nested dated folders, which I guess works although they need to be numbered in reverse to display in the correct order.
How do I get links to point to a folder?
I'd like to use the links to point to the contents of a folder. So if they click "NPCs" the resulting page will be all the NPCs in my NPC folder (in my synced google drive folder). Is that possible? If so, how? I can't seem to figure it out.
Can I get a sample file with all possible layouts?
I see that in the intro video available in the website, some cool file layouts and formats were shown. Can I get access to those sample layouts to see whats actually possible with Blot?
Wikilinks bug?
Hi. Are wikilinks working as expected? I have the title of a post enclosed in double square brackets, in a page. But the link is broken. It inserts spaces instead of hyphens between the words and doesn't respect my link format. Example: I want a link on this page to link to this post. But it doesn't. Thanks
Image captions within a post?
I swear this used to give me an image and an image caption inside a post: ![Photo Credit in caption line.](_sample.jpeg) But now I only get the image and no caption. I'm using the blog template. Has something changed or do I have my markdown wrong?
Metadata in markdown links?
Just wondering if there is any way to use metadata tags in markdown links? At the moment this markdown: ![caption]({{url}}_images/picture.jpg)` Becomes, this HTML: <img src="/%7B%7Burl%7D%7D_images/picture.jpg" alt="caption"> The brackets just get encoded. Can this be avoided? Or should I just use HTML to start with?
What new file types would like Blot to support?
At the moment, Blot can turn five types of files into posts. We plan to expand this list in future – what file types would be useful to you?
Link to a PDF in the same folder as a post?
Is there a way to link a pdf file located in the same folder of parent note? Because at the moment I can link only pdf in the root 'Files' folder
Specifying time in image posts?
When directly posting an image to Blot using the YEAR-MONTH-DAY File Name format, the time is always set to 12:00am. I wish to upload several images over several posts but in a particular order. Is there a method of naming an image file to specify a time (Say, 12:01, 12:02, etc) in order to achieve this?
