Linking Inline News to Full Blog Posts in al-folio ✍️
In content-heavy academic websites, providing concise summaries through inline posts while maintaining access to deeper insights in full blog entries can greatly enhance navigability and clarity. In my case, I use al-folio—a Jekyll-powered academic theme—to present inline event highlights that point users toward detailed posts.
✅ Scenario
Suppose you have:
- An inline post at:
/_news/announcement-post-1.md
- A blog post at:
/_post/2024-05-01-blog-post-1.md
with a permalink:your-site-url/blog/2025/blog-post-1
🔗 Linking Workflow
Inside your inline post, use the following snippet to create a clean link to the full article:
[Read the full post](/blog/2025/blog-post-1)
So, your /_news/announcement-post-1.md
might look like:
---
layout: post
date: 2025-01-26 16:50:16+0600
inline: true
related_posts: false
---
🔔 [announcement post 1](/blog/2025/blog-post-1)
And, your /_post/2024-05-01-blog-post-1.md
might look like:
---
layout: post
title: blog post 1
date: 2025-05-01 16:40:16
description: "A description"
tags: ECA
categories: undergraduate-life
permalink: /blog/2025/blog-post-1
---
