Multiple 'blogs' under one site

[Mark Szymanski]

Is it at all possible to have multiple "blog" sections for one site?
For instance, there be a main blog, and then a sort of "sub-blog"? For
instance, my website (http://mrminimalist.nfshost.com) has one main
blog. And I want a second one that could be for posting photos.

Is there any way to do this? I am perfectly fine with writing a plugin
if I would need to.

Make another directory for posts (eg. /your/jekyll/home/photos/_posts) will make a new blog at mrminimalist.nfshost.com/photos.

Ok, I tried that in different ways, all with different restults. Here are the results:

1. Tried with _posts/ directory in photos/ directory and with index.html (identical to main index.html) in it. result: Identical to main page, not with posts in /photos/_posts/

2. Tried with no index.html. Result: Local testing I get 403 and remote testing I get a semi-blank page, like the index page but with no posts.

And, also. If this makes a difference. Posts in the '/photos/_posts' directory happen to show up in the RSS feed.

I got it working. I just set up a category for the photos and limited my /photos/ index page to only deal with posts in the "photos" category by using an "if" block and I used an "unless" block to keep the main index page from showing photos.

For example:

Main index page:

{% unless post.category == "photo" %}
{% comment %} Display posts… {% endcomment %}
{% endunless %}

For the photo page just replace "unless" with "if" and "endunless" with "endif".

I tried that, but it just shows posts from the main _posts directory
instead of the ones inside the photos directory.

Hi,

I tried that, and whenever I go to localhost:8080/photos, I get the
same set of posts as my index page.

I assign categories to my photos, and then use this to filter the two
most recent photos out.

{% for post in site.categories.photos limit:2 %}
