Questions

I just discovered that Commento seems to register URLs with or without trailing slashes as different posts. Is this expected behavior? Is there any way to redirect the version with the trailing slash to the version without, so comments won't keep being split on future posts?

I'd like to create a link to the most recent post with a specific tag. I can use {{recent_entries}} or {{all_entries}} and filter by tag but I can't find a way to get (or reference) only the first result. Elsewhere I have pagination of entries working as I want so I don't want to change local.page_size for the whole blog. Is this possible please?

I've tried a few things to see if I can affect what makes some thumbs large and some small, but haven't figured out what the pattern might be. One entry has a single image and its thumb is small on the front page, another entry has a single image and its thumb is large on the front page.

Is there a way to loop through every tag and then print all entries with that tag below it? i.e. the /tagged/example page but with every tag and its entries, without having to specify each one individually.

When I try to upload the blog's photo that will be used as the browser tab favicon (and also show up as avatar in the header as I've modified the template to show it), it's just not uploading the file. When I click "Save Changes" it doesn't save changes and again shows the "No file chosen" text. I tried with a PNG as well as JPG. Please let me know if there are certain requirements around this that I'm not following.

I cannot seem to find a way to embed audio files uploaded to my Dropbox. I can get a link to a Dropbox-embedded audio file that will open separately and play via Dropbox, but can't seem to embed this directly. The question How to embed audio in a post? suggests i'm doing something wrong: Can you verify that it works and/or provide an example of it being used with verification that the file is hosted on Dropbox only?

Would anyone know where I can find a no frills HTML contact us form? All I need is an email sent to me, and the form only needs a name, email address and message fields.

Hello, I was wondering, now that there is a super easy way to share templates, do you any place where Blot users might preferably want to share/try external templates? Maybe a GitHub group or something like that? Tags work, but there is not an “official” GitHub repository tag to find them all in the same place.

I’m looking to avoid repeating a specific block of code from within the individual post entries. Within a theme, this would be achieved using {{> Block}}. Is there a way to do this within a post. Currently Blot hides this code. Do I need to put a path? {{> /templates/theme-name/Block }} or something similar?

How can I automatically share my blog posts on Twitter? I can’t seem to find any instructions. Cheers.

Hi, my Lighthouse accessibility score mentions a problem with the Role and ARIA attributes of the Footnotes class, and I don't know where to begin solving this. Any idea on how to quickly correct this on my side?

I want to make a second blog, unrelated to my first and already started paying for a second account. It's important that my first blog is not influenced by this. Could you confirm that nothing will change - to the outside world - in terms of addresses and links from my first blog when i add the second? I assume that the changes in dropbox needed to have two separate blogs are automatic and below the surface.

How or where do I find a community of bloggers using Blot?

I am madly in love with the bibliography function. It actually was, what made me move to Blot – seriously, you made this scientist very, very happy, good bye self-hosted Jekyll. I would love to, however, move the generated bibliography within the page. My citations can get somewhat ... excessive. So I'd like to move them, within the "Blog" template, after Date, Tags, and Backlinks, and style them the same way those are. For that, I'd need somehow access to the generated HTML. Is that possible?

My blog's front page lists a post where the date is aligned to two lines instead of one (at least on my desktop browser). Is there a way to fix this? Thanks.

Is there a way to enable pagination for tagged urls If a tag has a hundred posts or more, and they have images, it would be nice to only have a page worth of them load and then envoke the pagination navigation. I had tried modifying the entries.html view in conjunction with the tagged.html view but had no luck. Thoughts?

Is it possible to remove certain categories tags from the feed?

Hello, I'm an avid Blot user. I currently find the Twitter/X post embedding feature very useful for my writing on Blot. As I've recently started using Bluesky alongside Twitter, I was wondering if it would be possible to add support for embedding Bluesky posts, similar to how Twitter posts can be embedded. Given the steady growth in Bluesky's user base, I believe adding Bluesky post embedding functionality would be beneficial for many users. I would greatly appreciate it if you could consider this feature request. Thank you for your time.
