I’m building a photography blog. I’m looking for a way to display a large amount of images one after the other inside each post. Due to there being a lot of images, I’d rather not type the path to each image over and over and would rather just specifiy a folder relating to that post, so that when i make a post, I can simple drop in a new folder with the related images.
Is this possible?
Thanks!

Not out of the box, but you can use Liquid to do some heavy lifting. I wrote a blog post explaining how you can leverage `site.static_files` to loop through and pull out images in specific folders.

There’s probably performance considerations to note with this method as big loops in Jekyll can really add to the build time. A plugin is probably the better solution.
