Step 6: Add blog post metadata
Now that you've created your Jekyll blog post file, we can add syntax to it. The syntax Jekyll files use is called YAML front matter. It goes at the top of your file and looks something like this:
---
title: "Welcome to my blog"
date: 2019-01-20
---
This example adds a title and date to your blog post. There are other useful things you could add here in the future like layouts, categories, or any other logic that is useful to you. For more information about configuring front matter, see the Jekyll front matter documentation.
⌨️ Activity: Add Front Matter to your Blog Post
-
Click the "Files Changed" tab in this pull request.
-
There are two files in the "Files Changed" tab, the
_config.yml
file and the_posts/YYYY-MM-DD-title.md
file. Make sure to edit the file in the_posts
folder. -
Click on the icon to edit on the right side of the screen.
-
Type the following content at the top of your blog post:
--- title: "YOUR-TITLE" date: YYYY-MM-DD ---
-
Replace YOUR-TITLE with the title for your blog post.
-
Replace YYYY-MM-DD with today's date.
-
Commit your changes to your branch.
