Questions

I'm a bit confused about the scope of tag names from the Reference page: For example, the reference lists blog.title and entry.title, but on the entries.html they don't seem to work for me. However the unqualified title does work.

I've set font weight: 600 (and a few other style changes) for the blog's title in header.html, and it looks great on desktop. But when I view on mobile (iOS Safari), the font weight is missing. The title doesn't look as bold as I like. Please let me know how to fix this.. thank you.

I am changing entries.html so that it only shows {{{summary}}} of a blog post. I would like to indicate a "more" link if there is more text. The {{more}} tag contains this information -- but how can I use this to display a "More" links? Can Mustache do this? Or do I need JavaScript?

Currently the way things seem to be set up for showing entries (i.e. #all_entries) is they're in reverse chronological order. Is there a way to sort by chronological order? Thanks! Ray

I found something intriguing: Some of the Blot templates render the title of a blog entry (as you can set it in the metadata) nicely as a heading, others don't do so. For example Isola renders it, but Magazine doesn't. So for Magazine you would need to repeat the title as na explicit Markdown heading. This might be desirable -- or not so. In any case the inconsistency makes it hard to switch between templates. So my question now is: What's the standard here? Is there even a wider standard beyond Blot?

I am used to a date format like 18 Jan 1999 or at least 18-01-1999. I have set the date format in the settings to DD-MM-YYY, but still the blog displays January 18, 1999.

I use FeedPress to manage my RSS feed. Ideally it would replace the standard feed for my site. For that I would have to set up a redirection from my site's normal feed to the FeedPress feed, while still giving FeedPress access to the normal site feed so it can be updated. Usually that's done via .htaccess file (see here). Is there any way this can be accomplished?

In the doco I read that after forking a template I can edit it on the Blot admin site and in the filesystem. I found where to edit them on the admin site, but I don't know where they are in the filesystem. -- I can't find them in Blot's Dropbox folder.

Trying to conceptualize how to set up my portfolio site and I was wondering if it's possible to return a more refined list of tags than either {{#all_tags}} or {{#popular_tags}}. Specifically, I'd love to be able to display a list of tags that are subhierarchical to a tag folder they reside in. Using examples from the docs, let's imagine a site set up like: [Pictures]›[Sicily] [Pictures]›[Venezia] [Essay]›[Roma] And calling {{#all_tags}} {{tagged.Pictures}}... would return the tag links [Sicily] and [Venezia] (which could be used to generate categorical navigation links as in the nav of the portfolio theme which is the base of the fork). Is there a different way to approach this or is a function similar to this possible?

Another newbie question: In the documentation I read somewhere that I can change the colors (background, text, etc) of the blog. However in the settings I could not find anything relating to this. - Do I need to make my own template for this?

Does Blot support Markdown’s custom heading IDs? For example, using iA Writer it is possible to change the ID assigned to a heading when it's turned into HTML like so: ### This is a heading with a lot of text [short-id] You'll then be able to link to #short-id instead of the full heading title.

Hello, I couldn't find anything in my short trips through documentation and questions that mentioned embedding images with wikilinks. I've been experimenting a little in case it does exist, but I figure I should ask here: is this possible or at least a potential future feature? It would be a huge plus with the synergy between Blot and Obsidian.

Hi! I just signed up for Commento, added my URL (https://russbonchu.site) and checked off the box here in the services page, but it's not showing up. i also put their code snippet at the end of my post. Does it take some time?

Getting an error when I try to switch from Dropbox to Google Drive. ":( Error"

Image files render directly in blot, but not so videos (eg. mp4). It the ideal solution to host videos on a 3rd party site and then embed them?

Just curious as to how you insert an image (stand alone or in a. blog post) that renders as a wide image as in the example in the video? Can this be done in markdown or html so the image extends beyond the edge of the text column ? Thanks in advance!

It looks like an image tag, ![](), generates <p>...<img ...>...</p>. I assume this is a fixed thing, or is there a way to generate <figure><img ...><figcaption>...</figcaption></figure> ?

As the title says, I've looked at some of the templates but they have different number of files and I didn't see anything about this in the documentation (but I'm sure that I've missed something).

I'm new to writing templates and I want to create a menu like this item1 - item2 - item3 - item4 My problem is that only want the '-' between the items. With the help of 'last' I can write something like this {{#menu}} <a href="{{url}}" title="{{label}}">{{label}}</a> - {{#last}} <a href="{{url}}" title="{{label}}">{{label}}</a> {{/last}} {{/menu}} Which of course results in two 'item4'. What I haven't figured out is how to match 'this items isn't the last item'. Can anyone tell me how to do this

Can you give an example of how to add a javascript library to a site?
