I have purchased some font files (.ttf, .woff) which I would like to use on my blog. How do I change the font?
I’m attempting to set up my Blot blog with my domain but my DNS provider doesn’t allow for ALIAS records to be set. I ended up just setting up an A record that points to Blot’s direct IP address. Would you anticipate this ever causing any issues?
Hi. I’d like to set up a second blog I think. I use 2tb on Dropbox do plenty of room. Can the second blog have its own custom domain? What is best way to set up folders? I have the blot folder with three folders on inside. Is there a basic convention or howto for this? Thanks!
I would like to use Analytics to see how many people read my blog. (Probably only my mum :)) But I do not want to give google my log files 'for free'. I would rather just analyze the log files on my own with a service like goaccess.io. is there a way to access the Log files?
How would I go about displaying the Title and Link to my most recent blog-post on the Landing page? Thank you
I just published a post with a couple of embedded tweets, and they hang just a little bit left of where the body text is aligned. I've tested this with both the tweet's URL and Twitter-provided embed code, but the result is the same. Does anyone have a solution for how I can force the embed either to stay in line with the body text, or else to align centrally on the page? Thanks.
I used the {|<} tag to put an image and a video in the margin of my post, and looks fine. But when I go to my home page where all my posts are listed, the video (a screen recording) is longer than the text next to it, so it is hanging down past the post it goes with and looks messy on the home page. Is there a way for content in the margins to push other posts on the home page down vertically so that posts are not overlapping? Thanks
Hi, is there a way to add our own robots.txt to disallow crawling, without it being turned into a post of its own? Also, if there is, how can I make User-agent: * Disallow: / not be read as metadata
I have searched the documentation and the questions here, but I have not found an answer to the question. If I have a post, and I want to display an excerpt (teaser) for it on the list of posts (using the Diary template), how do I accomplish this without having to duplicate post content in the metadata section? I have tried a variety of combinations of the {{{teaser}}} and {{more}} special tags in my post content but nothing seems to work. I simply want to know how I can flag the first paragraph of the post as a teaser. Thanks for any help you can provide.
Is there a fairly straightforward way to set the permalink to the entry title rather than the date that is displayed for that entry from the entries list?
Hi! Loving Blot and delighted to be moving towards it as my main platform. I've just been doing some minor tweaks to the Diary template - increasing the size of the text in the navigation bar with a slight adjustment to opacity. (Also tweaked the blockquote right margin font size which was a bit teeny for my feeble eyes.) I'd quite like to increase the size of the website name (and is it possible to add a small logo/image alongside the name?) as it is currently just a little smaller than H1 text. Any help appreciated - though I will understand if you re-direct me towards a developer as we're getting into custom template territory.
Just wondering if there's a maximum total size or a maximum filesize. Now that Blot supports wikilinking I'm thinking about making my site quite a bit bigger...
From what I have seen, you have the option of either using {{{html}}} or {{{teaser}}} and {{more}}in the entries.html page. Is there a way of integrating both, meaning the post is displayed in its entirety unless a {{more}} tag is included somewhere to turn it into a teaser?
I'm using Commento, but the problem is that it is lacking visibility. How could I add a "Comments" link under the post date on the left, on each post, on the main page? Thanks.
Hi, I am trying to render some elements in an entry.html template only if it is a post but not a page. To do so, I have: {{#unless page}} <div id="TOC"> {{> toc}} </div> {{/unless}} so that I can only load a table of contents on appropriate pages. However, this seems to not work. On all views, whether page or post, this seems to still load the toc. What is happening? What might I be doing wrong?
I love that we can just drop a URL into the dropbox folder to make a link post. But is there a way to add just a sentence or two to go along with that link? Thanks!
Hi. I have definitely saved certain documents to the correct Dropbox folder but it's not showing. Any thoughts appreciated
Is there a way to create an On This Day feature on the Archives page or a separate page of a Blot blog? I would like to see the posts made today in the past years. Jonathan Lacour has coded something similar for Micro.Blog blogs
I'm using the Magazine template and would like to sort the tags in the sidebar alphabetically. Is that possible?
Hi, I put utterances script for the comments on each post below, whilst both Disqus and the other are not working well. But soon I realised the reader cannot add one's comment because it's IN the post, not the outside part of it. Can I customise this? If so, could you give me a hint?
