Posts are not displayed in cayman theme

Help
1

I added the _post folder into the root folder.
But when I run it on local server, the home page is still index.md.
Do I need to write the index.md myself just to let it show all the post I have in the root folder?

That depends upon the theme you are using.

If you are starting from scratch then you have to create index.md file.

i see. thanks! (20 characters)

I do have index.md in there, but it is blank. I think I need to create my own layouts then use {{…}} to put those layout into index.md.

Eventually what I wanna achieve is that I have a list of all the articles I have written and different categories for users to navigate.

Which theme are you using?

The index.md file should contain.

layout: default

Text can be **bold**, _italic_, or ~~strikethrough~~.

[Link to another page](./another-page.html).

There’s a horizontal rule below this.

Here is an unordered list:

  • Item foo
  • Item bar
  • Item baz
  • Item zip

And an ordered list:

  1. Item one
  2. Item two
  3. Item three
  4. Item four

And a nested list:

  • level 1 item
    • level 2 item
    • level 2 item
      • level 3 item
      • level 3 item
  • level 1 item
    • level 2 item

Long, single-line code blocks should not wrap. They should horizontally scroll if they are too long. This line should be long enough to demonstrate this.

Use the minima theme if you want a similar page.

Set theme: minima in your _config.yml

minima comes up with GitHub Pages gem, if that’s what you’re using.
If not add gem: "minima" to your Gemfile.
