To change the URL of my RSS feed to /rss I renamed the template from feed.rss to rss and adjusted the link inside the template. This didn't work and just gave me an Error with your template when visiting the /rss route. So I changed it back to the way it was before and now I'm still getting the same template error. I also tried using RSS templates from other themes, every time the same error :( What can I do to restore my feed?

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

I'm trying Google Docs as my post editor ... I want to make a par of text appear as a blockquote, but attempts so far have failed. Tried using Google Docs support for Markdown, using a ">" character at the start of the paragraph, but that didn't work. Next, tried to use Google Docs built-in "indent" command, that didn't work either. Is there another way?

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!

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!

If I'm using custom metadata, is there a way to set a default in the template?

I'm still investigating this other question and as part of that I'm back and forth looking at what the template debug is giving me and what I'm trying to access. One thing that I'm seeing now though is that, when inside of #entry, I'm able to use #allEntries, even though that's declared outside the scope of entry. The docs mention searching for parent keys so I suspect that is why. However, when I try to do the same for #menu, nothing is rendered if I'm inside #entry, even though menu/allEntries exist at the same json level and are outside of entry. Is this a bug or intended behavior? I'd definitely like #menu to be used inside of an entry, especially given that I need entry metadata.

I'd like dates to appear just as month and year. Without the day. Is that possible? If so, where would I make the change? Using the Magazine template. Thank you!

I like the minimalism of Blot so I don't wanna add much. Just would be nice to be able to change the color of the banner & text

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/

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}}

Google search console says my pages aren't indexed because "there are pages with redirect." How do I fix it? Thank you.

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?

Hello. I have been trouble with the dropbox syncing feature. For the past week blot.im stopped syncing for up to half an hour. Right now the folder does not sync. I have tried troubleshooting the issue with dropbox but it did not help. Anything I should do or try? Thank you

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