You can have custom layouts in the _layouts directory.

Layouts will be compiled as liquid templates.

Posts live in _posts.

Example:

@extends: posts.tpl

title:   My first Blogpost
date:    24/08/2014 at 15:36
---
Hey there this is my first blogpost and this is super awesome.

My Blog is lorem ipsum like, yes it is..

The content before --- are meta attributes made accessible to the template via their key (see below).

The @extends attribute specifies which layout will be used.

Any file with the .tpl file extension will be parsed for metadata and compiled using liquid, like a post.

Unlike posts, files outside the _posts directory will not be indexed as blog posts and not passed to the index file in the list of contents.

All other files and directories in the source folder will be recursively added to your destination folder.

All template files have access to a set of attributes.

In example above title is accessible via {{ title }} and date via {{ date }}, for the layout template as well as the post template.

{{ content }} is accessible only to layouts and contains the compiled text below the --- block of the post.

{{ posts }} is a list of the attributes of all templates in the _posts directory. Example:
