Is there any way to make footnotes appear at the side of where they're being referenced instead of at the bottom of the post?

I'd like to generate archives for a specific tag (i.e. memories for which archives would be perfect because of calendaring). Since {{#tagged.memories}} only seems to work inside {{entries}} in the example below (it generates empty headers for months without tagged entries), is there another way to tweak this to make it so? Or at least hide the empty months, years, etc. that show up? Thanks! Ray {{#archives}} <h2>{{year}}</h2> {{#months}} <h3>{{month}}</h3> {{#entries}} <a href="{{url}}">{{title}}</a> {{/entries}} {{/months}}

Hi there, I'm building a custom template and am trying to point link css and js files within folders but they are not being picked up. I've triple-checked the link e.g href="css/main.css" but it doesn't work. It does work when I delete the "css/" and move the file to the same directory as the rest of the files. Am I missing something? I'm wondering whether it's a limitation of the platform. Thanks in advance!

Hi, is there a way we can hide specific tagged entries showing up in search results? I tried this: {{#query}} {{^entries}} <p>Sorry, nothing found for “{{query}}”</p> {{/entries}} {{/query}} {{#entries}} {{^tagged.jotfeed}} <a href="{{url}}">{{title}}</a> <span class="small">{{date}}</span> <br /> {{/tagged.jotfeed}} {{/entries}} ..and it doesn't seem to work? Thanks! Ray

Hey, I want to develop my theme locally. I followed the directions on setting up a local dev environment but when I load the site it's pointing to a blank "Example" install. This seems wrong since an empty install isn't userful for theme development. Where do I need to put some files to show content in my theme so I can actually see stuff to develop against?

Hey there, I want to develop my own theme locally, not in the blot online template editor. But I can't find the theme in my Dropbox folders at all - those only appear to be the posts. Suggestions?

Hello all. I’m a new Blot user and I really enjoy its simplicity. However, I’ve never had to use GitHub before and have found myself stuck. I have Obsidian syncing with GitHub without issue. However, for the life of me, I can’t figure out how to get Blot to also sync with my current setup on GitHub. Is there anyone who can assist or point me in the right direction of a tutorial? I don’t mind learning, I just don’t know where to go to start doing so.

I noticed in your reference section there's a {{backlinks}} code: "A list of all the entries on your site which link to this entry." {{#backlinks}} <a href="{{url}}">{{title}}</a> {{/backlinks}} I tried this on pages and posts that linked to each other but nothing shows up. Am I misunderstanding the purpose of this?

Is it possible to extend the Markdown parsing with our own additions?

Hi, I have the correct measurement ID (GA4) set up in Blot settings but Google Analytics is not receiving any data. It used to work in the past. Any idea what’s up?

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! I created a blog using the default blog template and tried using layout tags and added the layout sample post but it's not reflecting correctly. Is there anything we need to do to the default blog template to make that work / look like the blog preview?

Is there a way to create a specific page that only show the thumbnails of the photo posts? I've created a new file named thumbs.html with the following code: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> {{> head}} <body> {{> header}} <ul class="photos"> {{#entries}} {{#thumbnail.large.url}} <li> <a href="{{{url}}}">{{#thumbnail.medium}}<img src="{{url}}" width="{{width}}" height="{{height}}">{{/thumbnail.medium}}</a> </li> {{/thumbnail.large.url}} {{/entries}} {{> footer}} </ul> </body> </html> But when I visit /thumbs.html or /thumbs I get an error that the page is not found. Am I creating the custom page the wrong way? Thanks.
