The Blog for all things CMAN.
You must have push access. All blog posts are written in Markdown. To write a blog post, use the following instructions.
1: Create a file in the _posts folder. The filename MUST be using the format "YYYY-MM-DD-POST-SLUG.md" (POST-SLUG should use hyphons (-) instead of a space)
2: Write the following Markdown into the file:
---
layout: post
title: <Title of the blog post>
author: <Author>
---
This tells Jekyll that this is a blog post and it's title is what you wrote after title:
and the author is what you wrote after author:
.
3: Write some blog contents. This can be anything and include Markdown.
4: Push the file. If the instructions were followed correctly, you should be able to refresh the page after around ten seconds and your post should appear.
(Note: The reason why I used colons instead of periods is because Markdown keeps messing up and making steps 3 and 4 to be 1 and 2)
