Support for default meta fields #581

Closed strzibny closed 4 years ago

strzibny commented 4 years ago

I have a blog where I follow the standard 2020-02-16-blog-post.md post paths, but the permalink is actually without the date (and included as permalink in meta):

e.g. 2020-02-16-blog-post.md shows at /blog-post/.

Is there some way to teach jekyll-admin that the preview is found at the correct (permalink) address? And possibly let jekyll-admin to also autogenerate this correct permalink?

Okay, it seems that the previews are actually working. So the question that remains is how to automate the permalink field or in generall other metadata like layout to post so I don't have to add it manually with each post?

Please refer Jekyll documentation on this feature: https://jekyllrb.com/docs/configuration/front-matter-defaults/

@ashmaroli Thank you. I could solve it with default Jekyll settings, sorry for the noise!
