I am trying to store the image used in the blog in the same directory where the blog post it, but netlify is outputting an error.

![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/jekyllrb/original/2X/b/b9d077296e2a21298fbfe7c8205a8fca02635846.png)

What’s the better way to fix this error?

I just want to keep the images of the specific blog under the same roof so that it’s easy to recognize which blog post uses which images.

there has been a few posts about that - if you google it you will come up with a few things - one of which is a plugin that does it:

> **[jekyll-postfiles](https://nhoizey.github.io/jekyll-postfiles/)**
>
> A Jekyll plugin that copies static files from the \_posts to the \_site folder

I think it’s not the answer you want but I use a personal convention for this in a dedicated folder named /resources/YYYY-MM-DD/, you know, set the post date as the date path.

I’m using it for a while and not makes me unhappy 🙂

So you mean to say you are organizing your assets by dates.
