I have been having trouble with this – my Blot folder does not seem to have sharing options (but maybe that's a free Dropbox limitation? It's hard to tell.)
Hi! Is there a property on an entry that can be used to display word count / reading time? Or is that something best done with JavaScript?
Is there a way to put metadata elsewhere in an entry, potentially at the bottom? Editors like Ulysses treat the first line of the file as the name which causes some issues when the first line is something like tags: example that might not be unique. Or alternatively, if you have any best practices on how to work around that it'd be very helpful!
The title says it all. I'm currently using Commento as an external service.
If I create some folder structures in my blog's folder for additional pages, will those pages be functional on the blog? For example, will the .md file in Evil-Plan/schemes/phase-1.md be published at /Evil-Plan/schemes/phase-1? Addendum: if so, is this an accurate list of reserved top-level folders?

It seems that Blot does not set any cookies, is that correct? I'm asking because of GDPR. I would need to ask for cookie-consent if it is the case.
I am learning Markdown and today I tried to add an image but it went pear shaped. I looked up the basic code for adding image but I cannot get it to work. It will be a local image on my drive.
Is there a way to update just the slug of a post without interrupting the other parts of the URL formatting? E.g. if my post has the URL domain.tld/2021/02/17/really-really-long-slug and I want to change it to domain.tld/2021/02/17/short-slug, is there a way to do that without just changing the post title? From the looks of it, using the Link: metadata replaces all of the URL structure, which makes sense but isn’t what I’m after.
Is there a way to change or manipulate stylesheets for minor changes that can affect the entire site? For example, just want to change the behavior of hyperlinks without manually recreating the existing pages.
Is it ok that users can create new blogs at the same price of their existing blogs? If someone wants to blog about many topics, should they put everything on one blog or create several blogs? Is there a way to tag and sort posts accordingly? I also noticed that after logging in on blot.im it refreshes the page and the "log in" and "sign up" buttons are still there until the user clicks on "log in" again. It's not a big deal since the user knows what to do.
I have seen your demo on uploading a separate HTML file, but how can I embed a snippet inside a md file?
I've been getting emails from Google Analytics about needing to update to the new Google Analytics tags and setting up Google Analytics 4. I'm unclear if Blot supports either of these things
I'm trying to make sure my site is ADA compliant. I have added "alt" text in my image embeds using markup but my site template isn't picking them up in every location that the image is shown. What do I need to add to my template to add them? Thanks!
I followed the folder structure from the website and have created a page called 'Home' in the Pages folder but now I have two tabs with Home. How do I make the text document my home page? This is the page I want people to land on when they visit. Thanks :)
Is there a way to have the title of the link in the menu be different from the one that appears on the actual page? E.g. Title in the menu: "Work"; title on the page: "Design Portfolio"
