The markdown file

The markdown file is the first one to create. This gets created in the _posts directory. Check the _data directory for the last event number that was used if you haven't already.

It must be named in this format YYYY-MM-DD-datasaturdayXXXX.md where XXXX is the next number available. (Be aware the files in this directory are ordered by the date and not the number!). An example name is 2021-06-12-datasaturday0007.md. In this file paste all of the following content

---
layout: post
title: "Data Saturday #XXX Name"
subtitle: "Data Saturday"
tags: [event]
comments: false
data: datasaturday00XX
---
  • You will need to include the --- at the beginning and the end.
  • The title is the title of your event and should be inside double quotes " for example "Data Saturday #7 - Los Angeles"
  • The data needs to be exactly datasaturday plus the 4 digits with leading zeros of your event. for example datasaturday0007
  • Don't change any other value. Remember to save it!
