To create a new post, all you need to do is create a file in the _i18n/[language]/_posts directory. How you name files in this folder is important. Jekyll requires blog post files to be named according to the following format: YEAR-MONTH-DAY-title.MARKUP Where YEAR is a four-digit number, MONTH and DAY are both two-digit numbers, and MARKUP is the file extension representing the format used in the file. For example, the following are examples of valid post filenames: 2011-12-31-new-years-eve-is-awesome.md 2011-12-31-new-years-eve-is-awesome.html 2012-09-12-how-to-write-a-blog.textile ## Writing a Blog Post Blog posts can be written in MarkDown (*.md) or HTML (*.html). Posts need to be saved in the `_posts` directory and the filename must always start with YYYY-MM-DD- For example: `2016-05-12-new-website.md` ###Front matter The top page of every post should contain the following (Example): ``` author: perry layout: post image: Node40-banner.jpg title: New website for Node40 description: Check out the new website for Node40 ``` ###Blog Post Images Image paths for blogs are currently relative to /assets/img/blog by default. If we replaced the image path from the front matter above with: ``` image: MyImage.jpg ``` ... will look for `"MyImage.jpg"` in the `/assets/img/blog` folder.
