Is there a way to show total post count? Something like... {{#all_entries}}{{entries.length}}{{/all_entries}}

I've got an jpg image stored in an Images folder and I'd like to reference it in a <img> tag in a post. Everything I've tried has led to a 404 on the image. If I put other (txt) files in that folder I can access them from the browser but my jpg file always shows up as not found.

Does anyone know of any templates or tools to support two different languages on the Blot website?

I forked a template to make my own, renamed it, and exported it to my Dropbox folder so I can edit it locally. The resulting folder is named after the template I forked ("empty-copy-template") instead of the name I gave it. Can I rename it? If so, do I need to keep the same style (all lowercase, dashes instead of spaces)? — Shy

I seem to have 2 different blog on Blot and I want to remove them and start anew. Is there any way to delete blogs and start from scratch?

I have been modifying my style.css sheet in Blot's template editor for the past few hours. I was using the Original template and modifying in Blot's dashboard interface. However, after a page refresh while editing the style sheet, I lost all changes I had been working on. Why would this happen? And how do I ensure this doesn't happen again?

Say that I want to make a site once and for all, and then i want to keep it up without any serious updates. would there be a way to export the site and keep it that way? Blot is by far my favourite way to build a site, but I don't want to pay monthly for more than one or two sites forever

I've read all the documentation and I'm sure I'm being thick but I just can't get my posts tagged. I am just posting .md files via DropBox but how do I get the posts to have tags?

In my About Me page, I link to a blog post. However, when I click on that link, it goes to an .md file viewed in the browser. I am sure I'm doing something wrong with wikilinks and maybe just need a redirect to Documentation. I'm also not sure if the space and commas in the file name are messing with it? I am using Obsidian and here is how it's written: Hello! I'm Benjamin Clover (formerly Saubolle-Camacho), an Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (APCC #14202) in the state of California. I made this blog after [deleting (most of) my social media](/Posts/Goodbye,%20social%20media.md) accounts. This also happens with my link to my CV. I am also a clinician & program administrator for our county's First Episode Psychosis program. You can see more about my professional background in my [CV](/Pages/CV.md). Thanks for any help, Benjamin

I apologize if I missed this in the documentation but I cannot seem to figure it out. What determines what is show in "Up Next" as compared to "Latest Posts"? Thank you!

Is it possible to embed images from Flickr and/or Smugmug? They are not mentioned in the documentation so I assume it's not possible.

I'd also like to add all listings to "blog" item instead of the homepage.

Just thought I would share what worked for me for those looking to do the same thing. Add to your CSS file. /* Drop Cap */ .entry > p:first-of-type::first-letter { color: #A52A2A; float: left; font-size: 3em; margin: .1em .1em .1em .1em; line-height: 0.85; }

I changed the 3 colors (background, nav background, accent) in the template on the web, but anytime I publish a change to a page it reverts. Any help?

Hey! I remember that it was possible to enable TeX server side rendering, but now I can't find this option under Publishing settings. Is this still available? Blot uses KaTeX on the server side and does not require the visitor to enable JavaScript

The date appears at the top of posts. How do I keep intact the date next to post titles in the archive but hide it in posts? Thanks.

I have an "about" Page, and a Post that links to it. At the bottom of the "about" Page, there is the Links here/backlinks section that appears at the bottom of regular Posts. I’d like to disable this for Pages, but keep it for Posts. I had a look through the entry.html template, and I can see the section that adds backlinks right above the section that adds pagination. Pagination is not shown on Pages, but backlinks are, but to my untrained eye, I don't see a difference between the way the sections for backlinks/pagination are set up in the template.

I have downloaded a few of the templates and unzipped them and, one at a time, dropped them in the Templates folder of my Blot folder but it seems to have no effect. Is there a way to enable or activate a template?
