I'd like to hide a link on my homepage. I thought using the below conditional on the page variable would work but it didn't work and the text is hidden everywhere. Any ideas? {{^page}}The text I want to hide.{{/page}}

Everything was working fine with my site but from last txt files, is not showing the images correctly, is showing the titles and date instead, and I don't understand why. This is the site: https://www.appinspo.com/

Hello. I have been unable to access the Bulk Edit for redirects recently on my dashboard. The page flickers when I click, but doesn't actually load the bulk edit window as it used to. Is there a problem with it? Thanks

I'm not sure what changed for me moving from dropbox to git to sync my blog. I cannot seem to get wikilinks to show up after syncing the repo with some writing I've done. They show up properly in IA Writer version 7 and always showed up correctly previously.

By default, I include a "Summary:" line in post metadata. I don't always add a Summary, but if I leave it empty it renders {{summary}} as null in the template. I tried adding a conditional like so: {{#summary}}{{summary}}{{/summary}} ...but that still renders as null unless I remove the Summary line from the front matter completely. I'd prefer it if I could leave an empty Summary: value in the post metadata without it rendering as null. Possible?

Typically when linking to another file in org-mode you would use this syntax: file:path/to/file.org However this doesn't work in blot. I'd love if this syntax would be implemented as C-c C-l defaults to this behavior. If this isn't possible with blot, what is the preferred syntax?

I am about to import my old wordpress blog to blot. Most of my old posts have comments, sometimes a lot of comments. What is the best way to take those comments with me to Blot?

I'm using the Magazine template for a photoblog. For posts with multiple images, I create a Markdown file with image embeds and a float right {>>} tag on square or landscape images so they are displayed in a similar size as portrait images. However, when posting single images directly, I'm unable to add those tags since there's no Markdown. Is it possible to add the applicable .css class to square and landscape ratio image posts through the template directly? Two examples links from my site: multi image post vs single image post

How can I ensure that the first image in my post is displayed as the default image when sharing the link on social media?

I would like a specific blog post to be the default home page of my blog, so that I have a consistent single welcome page. Is this possible?

In emacs, I can auto-fill the [[file:...]] style link from a set of known files. The problem is when linking to org-mode files, it looks something like [[file:foo.org]] but this doesn't work with blot's internal linking system. So I have to remove the .org to something like [[file:foo]] which does work with blot. The problem now is that org-follow-link does not resolve without the missing extension.

How would I use an image in an org-mode file. Traditionally, I'd do something like [[file:clock.png][clock]] but it seems like that's not working.

Hello. Thanks for blot.im. It's peaceful. I am using the Blog template. I have a Markdown blog post under 001-building-my-own-webpage.md which has some custom metadata (including a Date) and is showing up fine on the website. This is the full metadata: Menu: No Tags: Tech, Web Development Link: building-my-own-webpage Date: 22-03-2024 Thumbnail: ../imgs/_banner_sgs_right_1.jpeg Pois: yeah Here's an extract of my entry.html <div class="entry"> {{#entry}} {{{html}}} {{#tags.length}} <div class="wide"> <hr class="minimal"> </div> <div class="left-label"> <h5>Tags</h5> {{#tags}} <a class="small tag" href="/tagged/{{slug}}">{{name}}</a> {{/tags}} </div> {{/tags.length}} <div> <p>Posted by {{metadata.Date}}</p> <p>Posted by {{metadata.Pois}}</p> </div> {{#date}} <hr class="minimal"> <div class="left-label"> <h5>Date</h5> {{date}} </div> {{/date}} While the tags show correctly, nothing else appears at the end of the entry: Image: https://i.imgur.com/Ze9NDVq.png Other symptoms which suggest something is not correct in entry rendering: RSS feed is empty, Archives > Newest also doesn't show any post. I feel I'm missing something simple, but can't quite put my finger on what. Let me know what else can help in troubleshooting. Thanks in advance.

I'm learning Markdown and use Dillinger as my Markdown Editor. I've followed the instructions on how to embed an image but it's not displaying so I must be doing this wrong. Here's my process: -Images saved in folder in the 'Pages' folder, names start with an underscore so they don't appear as individual posts -Input the following text ! [brief description] (_name of file.jpeg) When I preview the blog, I see the Markdown text, no image. Any clue where I am going wrong? I wasn't sure whether to insert the whole path name in the brackets or just the file name. I have tried both, same result.

Analytics tracking doesn't seem to work? I tried selecting Heap and entering the ID and full script but neither work?

Is it possible to clone entries.html by creating a new file in the template, naming it 'blurbs.html' and copy/pasting the code from entries.html? I would also change what appears in the entries vs blurbs pages based on tags. I'm just not clear if this behavior is supported. I have seem other posts doing a similar thing with tagged pages, but the format hoping to achieve for blurbs is just like entries.html where those posts only show up when you visit the /blurb URL.

If I search for a phrase (multiple words), the results seem to include posts with either word rather than both/all words. I would prefer the search use AND not OR by default (without something like typing "AND" in the query). Is there any way to change the behavior? Currently, the results get very "noisy" because many of the results aren't relevant. Thanks.

I wanted to delete one of my blogs but ran into an error "Could not process your request" after clicking the delete button.

As David said, the folder "is a self-contained stand-alone site. If you download this folder and place its contents in your own site’s folder, you will get the same site." How can I use folder as template for my site on Blot if I can't upload the source code? Should I copy&paste what I want into my current template?
