Posts are stored in the `_posts` directory and named according to the `YEAR-MONTH-DAY-title.MARKUP` format as per [the usual](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/posts/).
|
|
|
|
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:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
2016-07-20-writing-jekyll-posts.md
|
|
2015-01-03-static-site-generators.markdown
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Recommended Front Matter Defaults:**
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
defaults:
|
|
# _posts
|
|
- scope:
|
|
path: ""
|
|
type: posts
|
|
values:
|
|
layout: single
|
|
author_profile: true
|
|
read_time: true
|
|
comments: true
|
|
share: true
|
|
related: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Adding the above to `_config.yml` will assign the `single` layout and enable: *author profile*, *reading time*, *comments*, [*social sharing links*]({{ "/docs/layouts/#social-sharing-links" | relative_url }}), and *related posts*, for all posts.
|
|
|
|
**ProTip:** Remember to write unique `excerpt` descriptions for each post for improved SEO and archive listings.
