Questions

Lately, I'm adding new posts into Google Drive but the blot site doesn't update, previous time it took some many hours and the latest update still not being published. Is there any limitation of posts or what could be the reason of this large delay? Thanks

In the Blog template, when I access the search, the border it's crossing the screen limit. Who can I fix this in the style CSS, please? Thank you!

I'm wanting to post a living Figma prototype, but I'm unable to get the iframe to render properly. Screenshot attached of what is displaying. Living Prototype Draft

I'd like the default photo to be more prominent on my home page. Is there a way to increase the size? I know very little about coding and I didn't see this addressed elsewhere. Thanks!

A weird behaviour happens with large thumbnails for posts and pages. Take this test post for example. Here is the metadata included in the file txt file : Date: 26/05/2024 Summary: Du travail d'escroc Thumbnail: https://res.cloudinary.com/poirpom/image/upload/v1717446275/Tests/240603-9.jpg Slug: /encore-un-blog-post and here is the HTML code from the entry.html template : <div style="min-height:6rem;flex-direction:row;align-items:center;" class="flex mt3 pt3 "> <div class="w-100" style="margin-bottom: 2rem !important;"> <!-- Code supprimé et stocké dans FSnotes --> <div class="w-80"> <!-- suppression du pr4 --> <div class="hero"> {{{titleTag}}} <img src="{{{thumbnail.large.url}}}" style="min-width: 100%;min-height: 2px;background-color: #1D191E;margin-top: 20px;" /> <div class="summary">{{{summary}}} </div> </div> <div class="lh-copy" style="margin-top: 10px !important; text-align: right !important;"> <!-- bloc date et tags déplacés --> {{^page}} {{#date}}<a href="{{url}}" class="black-30 f5 no-underline"><span>{{#formatDate}}DD.MM.YYYY{{/formatDate}}</span></a>{{/date}} • <span class="black-50 f5">{{#tags}}<a href="/tagged/{{slug}}" class="no-underline">{{tag}}</a>{{^last}}, {{/last}}{{/tags}}</span> <!-- <hr class="intermediaire" /> --> {{/page}} </div> </div> </div> </div> I published the post — the thumbnail appeared just fine. if, for some reason, I update the text file of the post, save it, wait for blot to do its thing, then the thumbnail doesn't appear anymore on the page. Same happen with any blog post or any page. Each time I edit the content, thumbnail doesn't show up anymore. When I look at the inspector, src appears in the html code, but without any url (screenshot here). The only way i found to make the thumbnail image appear again is to regenerate all thumbnails through the reset your folder settings. (Which is no big deal, but kind of annoying). Is there something I am missing or doing wrong here ? Thanks in advance for any advice.

Recently, I setup a new site and tried to enable analytics using CloudFlare. I followed the simple instructions and added the correct id. Had this setup for about a week before I realized I wasn't getting any data upon repeated testing. Figured it might be an issue related to Cloudflare, so I figured I'd then try google to see if that worked. New analytics v4 id in place, but google is reporting that the tag isn't detected. Double checked the pages source and things look correct. I verified this similarly with CloudFlare and it was there in the source as well. Help? Site is videostorecowboy.com

Hello! I have a page with an image. How can I add a link that always points to the latest post?

I've moved my site's synced folder from Google Docs stored in Google Drive to markdown files in Dropbox. Putting markdown files into Dropbox is working just fine - they are rendering on the site. And our old posts are also still rendering on the site, which is also great. However I can't figure out how we might edit / delete those old posts - the Drive folder is disconnected, but they aren't in the Dropbox folder either. How can we do some file management there? Ideally I'd be able to replace the GDoc originally published with a markdown file with the same url slug metadata into Dropbox.

Is there a way to hide the alt text/image description for images posted in the Blog template? I'd like to be a good netizen and have the alt text available for those who may need it, but don't want it necessarily showing as the image description below the image itself. Thanks!

I've made a few file changes in Dropbox that the client is happily picking up but for some reason Blot doesn't appear to be syncing so my site isn't being updated. The status page doesn't show anything and neither does the dashboard. Anyone else seeing this?

Wondering how to change the font size of the auto-generated tags in the magazine template. Want to make them smaller. Searched for it in the custom CSS but between "tags," "tag list," and "tagged" I didn't really have a clue what I was doing.

Trying to redirect from incoming pattern with a date to just the name of the post so that this: https://blog.jasonkratz.me/2023/11/08/my-default-apps-2023 should be this: https://blog.jasonkratz.me/my-default-apps-2023 Trying with: from: /\d{4}/\d{2}/\d{2}/(.*) to: /$1 Tried escape version of the above as well and its not working. The title definitely matches so not sure what is going on and we have no logging to see what might be going wrong.

I would like an image used in my blog post to appear when I share the post on Twitter, or Facebook.

They seem to be working but wanted to confirm support for WebP images?

What do i need to do to make the text column larger in the magazine template?

Your back links feature works well (at least in Magazine template) so the geek in me is curious how it works, how does Blot know there are existing links to a post? Does it scan the site or some internal database when a new post is generated?

Hi! Is it possible to hide 'digital garden' posts from my front page? I want to only show blog-style posts, but my 'evergreen' digital garden posts are also appearing on the front page. I want to be able to link to digital garden posts, but not show them on front page or in archive. Thanks!

I've seen several example sites where people put images in the margins next to their main body of text. Is this possible on the Magazine template? How would one go about adding a small thumbnail image next to a part of their markdown document? Example. Example; example

Hello, any idea when PDFs would be supported? It is really difficult to save web pages while keeping formatting, various content, etc. on iPad or iPhone (Share/Save to Dropbox). Many thanks!
