Hi, I’m using Jekyll and created a post in the _posts folder. The post is an HTML file and saved in the “_posts” folder I made sure that I did a Jekyll Build command and a Jekyll server command. Then I went to http://localhost:4000/2017/08/01/bills-lindyhike.html I made sure that the jpg fi…

If you just put an image into the _posts folder, I really don’t know what would happen to it, my guess is that it wouldn’t do anything, jekyll is only processing html or md files that are named with the date. Normally I would put an image into /assets/img in the root, then reference that path in t…

I keep getting the following messages that the jpg is not found. All I did was create an html post within the * _post* folder and then put the photo in the same folder. [image] Below is my HTML file: [image]

As @rdyar mentioned above, Jekyll by default doesn’t copy assets placed in the _posts folder… that’s why your image is missing after build. You’ll need to place it in another folder (not something with an _ underscore). The suggestion above is a good one. Create /assets/images/ in the root of your …

Don’t use underscores in your folder names. Jekyll ignores them. Rename _assets/_images/ to assets/images and adjust the source in <img> to do the same. Then when you run jekyll build or jekyll serve you should see your image at _site/assets/images/lindyhike.jpg.

Thanks! This solved for loading images into posts for me.

2 years later there is still no way to keep images with a post?

If you can install plugins there’s one that lets you store images and other files in the same folder as your posts. It’s been around for years… [image] jekyll-postfiles A Jekyll plugin that copies static files from the _posts to the _site folder

just for clarification: Jekyll does not ignore the underscores, it ignores all content (files or folders) beginning with an underscore. In all probability everyone knew that already :).
