This tutorial will guide you how to write a post in the Chirpy template, and it’s worth reading even if you’ve used Jekyll before, as many features require specific variables to be set.

Naming and Path

Create a new file named YYYY-MM-DD-TITLE.EXTENSION and put it in the _posts of the root directory. Please note that the EXTENSION must be one of md and markdown. If you want to save time of creating files, please consider using the plugin Jekyll-Compose to accomplish this.

Front Matter

Basically, you need to fill the Front Matter as below at the top of the post:

1
2
3
4
5
6

---
title: TITLE
date: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS +/-TTTT
categories: [TOP_CATEGORIE, SUB_CATEGORIE]
tags: [TAG]     # TAG names should always be lowercase
---

The posts’ layout has been set to post by default, so there is no need to add the variable layout in the Front Matter block.

Timezone of Date

In order to accurately record the release date of a post, you should not only set up the timezone of _config.yml but also provide the post’s timezone in variable date of its Front Matter block. Format: +/-TTTT, e.g. +0800.

Categories and Tags

The categories of each post are designed to contain up to two elements, and the number of elements in tags can be zero to infinity. For instance:

1
2
3
4

---
categories: [Animal, Insect]
tags: [bee]
---

Author Information

The author information of the post usually does not need to be filled in the Front Matter , they will be obtained from variables social.name and the first entry of social.links of the configuration file by default. But you can also override it as follows:

Adding author information in _data/authors.yml (If your website doesn’t have this file, don’t hesitate to create one).

1
2
3
4

<author_id>:
  name: <full name>
  twitter: <twitter_of_author>
  url: <homepage_of_author>

And then use author to specify a single entry or authors to specify multiple entries:

1
2
3
4
5

---
author: <author_id>                     # for single entry
# or
authors: [<author1_id>, <author2_id>]   # for multiple entries
---

Having said that, the key author can also identify multiple entries.

The benefit of reading the author information from the file _data/authors.yml is that the page will have the meta tag twitter:creator, which enriches the Twitter Cards and is good for SEO.

Table of Contents

By default, the Table of Contents (TOC) is displayed on the right panel of the post. If you want to turn it off globally, go to _config.yml and set the value of variable toc to false. If you want to turn off TOC for a specific post, add the following to the post’s Front Matter:

1
2
3

---
toc: false
---

Comments

The global switch of comments is defined by variable comments.active in the file _config.yml. After selecting a comment system for this variable, comments will be turned on for all posts.

If you want to close the comment for a specific post, add the following to the Front Matter of the post:

1
2
3

---
comments: false
---

Mathematics

For website performance reasons, the mathematical feature won’t be loaded by default. But it can be enabled by:

1
2
3

---
math: true
---

After enabling the mathematical feature, you can add math equations with the following syntax:

  • Block math should be added with $$ math $$ with mandatory blank lines before and after $$
    • Inserting equation numbering should be added with $$\begin{equation} math \end{equation}$$
    • Referencing equation numbering should be done with \label{eq:label_name} in the equation block and \eqref{eq:label_name} inline with text (see example below)
  • Inline math (in lines) should be added with $$ math $$ without any blank line before or after $$
  • Inline math (in lists) should be added with \$$ math $$

$$

<!-- Equation numbering, keep all blank lines  -->

$$
\begin{equation}
  LaTeX_math_expression
  \label{eq:label_name}
\end{equation}
$$

Can be referenced as \eqref{eq:label_name}.

<!-- Inline math in lines, NO blank lines -->

"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, $$ LaTeX_math_expression $$ consectetur adipiscing elit."

<!-- Inline math in lists, escape the first `$` -->

1. \$$ LaTeX_math_expression $$
2. \$$ LaTeX_math_expression $$
3. \$$ LaTeX_math_expression $$

Mermaid

Mermaid is a great diagram generation tool. To enable it on your post, add the following to the YAML block:

1
2
3

---
mermaid: true
---

Then you can use it like other markdown languages: surround the graph code with ```mermaid and ```.

Images

Caption

Add italics to the next line of an image, then it will become the caption and appear at the bottom of the image:

1
2

![img-description](/path/to/image)
_Image Caption_

Size

In order to prevent the page content layout from shifting when the image is loaded, we should set the width and height for each image.

1

![Desktop View](/assets/img/sample/mockup.png){: width="700" height="400" }

For an SVG, you have to at least specify its width, otherwise it won’t be rendered.

Starting from Chirpy v5.0.0, height and width support abbreviations (height → h, width → w). The following example has the same effect as the above:

1

![Desktop View](/assets/img/sample/mockup.png){: w="700" h="400" }

Position

By default, the image is centered, but you can specify the position by using one of the classes normal, left, and right.

Once the position is specified, the image caption should not be added.

  • Normal position

    Image will be left aligned in below sample:

    1

    ![Desktop View](/assets/img/sample/mockup.png){: .normal }

  • Float to the left

    1

    ![Desktop View](/assets/img/sample/mockup.png){: .left }

  • Float to the right

    1

    ![Desktop View](/assets/img/sample/mockup.png){: .right }

Dark/Light mode

You can make images follow theme preferences in dark/light mode. This requires you to prepare two images, one for dark mode and one for light mode, and then assign them a specific class (dark or light):

1
2

![Light mode only](/path/to/light-mode.png){: .light }
![Dark mode only](/path/to/dark-mode.png){: .dark }

Shadow

The screenshots of the program window can be considered to show the shadow effect:

1

![Desktop View](/assets/img/sample/mockup.png){: .shadow }

CDN URL

If you host the images on the CDN, you can save the time of repeatedly writing the CDN URL by assigning the variable img_cdn of _config.yml file:

1

img_cdn: https://cdn.com

Once img_cdn is assigned, the CDN URL will be added to the path of all images (images of site avatar and posts) starting with /.

For instance, when using images:

1

![The flower](/path/to/flower.png)

The parsing result will automatically add the CDN prefix https://cdn.com before the image path:

1

<img src="https://cdn.com/path/to/flower.png" alt="The flower" />

Image Path

When a post contains many images, it will be a time-consuming task to repeatedly define the path of the images. To solve this, we can define this path in the YAML block of the post:

1
2
3

---
img_path: /img/path/
---

And then, the image source of Markdown can write the file name directly:

1

![The flower](flower.png)

The output will be:

1

<img src="/img/path/flower.png" alt="The flower" />

Preview Image

If you want to add an image at the top of the post, please provide an image with a resolution of 1200 x 630. Please note that if the image aspect ratio does not meet 1.91 : 1, the image will be scaled and cropped.

Knowing these prerequisites, you can start setting the image’s attribute:

1
2
3
4
5

---
image:
  path: /path/to/image
  alt: image alternative text
---

Note that the img_path can also be passed to the preview image, that is, when it has been set, the attribute path only needs the image file name.

For simple use, you can also just use image to define the path.

1
2
3

---
image: /path/to/image
---

LQIP

For preview images:

1
2
3
4

---
image:
  lqip: /path/to/lqip-file # or base64 URI
---

For normal images:

1

![Image description](/path/to/image){: lqip="/path/to/lqip-file" }

Pinned Posts

You can pin one or more posts to the top of the home page, and the fixed posts are sorted in reverse order according to their release date. Enable by:

1
2
3

---
pin: true
---

Prompts

There are several types of prompts: tip, info, warning, and danger. They can be generated by adding the class prompt-{type} to the blockquote. For example, define a prompt of type info as follows:

1
2

> Example line for prompt.
{: .prompt-info }

Syntax

Inline Code

1

`inline code part`

Filepath Hightlight

1

`/path/to/a/file.extend`{: .filepath}

Code Block

Markdown symbols ``` can easily create a code block as follows:

1
2
3

```
This is a plaintext code snippet.
```

Specifying Language

Using ```{language} you will get a code block with syntax highlight:

1
2
3

```yaml
key: value
```

The Jekyll tag {% highlight %} is not compatible with this theme.

Line Number

By default, all languages except plaintext, console, and terminal will display line numbers. When you want to hide the line number of a code block, add the class nolineno to it:

1
2
3
4

```shell
echo 'No more line numbers!'
```
{: .nolineno }

Specifying the Filename

You may have noticed that the code language will be displayed at the top of the code block. If you want to replace it with the file name, you can add the attribute file to achieve this:

1
2
3
4

```shell
# content
```
{: file="path/to/file" }

Liquid Codes

If you want to display the Liquid snippet, surround the liquid code with {% raw %} and {% endraw %}:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7

{% raw %}
```liquid
{% if product.title contains 'Pack' %}
  This product's title contains the word Pack.
{% endif %}
```
{% endraw %}

Or adding render_with_liquid: false (Requires Jekyll 4.0 or higher) to the post’s YAML block.

Videos

Video Sharing Platform

You can embed a video with the following syntax:

1

{% include embed/{Platform}.html id='{ID}' %}

Where Platform is the lowercase of the platform name, and ID is the video ID.

The following table shows how to get the two parameters we need in a given video URL, and you can also know the currently supported video platforms.

Video URLPlatformID
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-B46URT4mgyoutubeH-B46URT4mg
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1634779211twitch1634779211
https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Q44y1B7WfbilibiliBV1Q44y1B7Wf

Video File

If you want to embed a video file directly, use the following syntax:

1

{% include embed/video.html src='{URL}' %}

Where URL is an URL to a video file e.g. /assets/img/sample/video.mp4.

You can also specify additional attributes for the embedded video file. Here is a full list of attributes allowed.

  • poster='/path/to/poster.png' - poster image for a video that is shown while video is downloading
  • title='Text' - title for a video that appears below the video and looks same as for images
  • autoplay=true - video automatically begins to play back as soon as it can
  • loop=true - automatically seek back to the start upon reaching the end of the video
  • muted=true - audio will be initially silenced

Consider an example utilizing all of the above:

1
2

{% include embed/video.html src='video.mp4' poster='poster.png' title='Demo video'
   autoplay=true loop=true muted=true %}
