## Naming and Path
Create a new file named with the format `YYYY-MM-DD-title.md` then put it into `_post` of the root directory.
Create a new file named `YYYY-MM-DD-TITLE.EXTENSION` and put it in the `_post/` of the root directory. The `EXTENSION` must be one of `md` and `markdown`. From `v2.4.1`, you can create sub-directories under `_posts/` to categorize posts.

The `categories` of each post is designed to contain up to two elements, and the number of elements in `tags` can be zero to infinity.
The list of posts belonging to the same category/tag is recorded on a separate page. The number of such *category*/*tag* type pages is equal to the number of `categories`/`tags` for all posts, they must match perfectly.
The list of posts belonging to the same _category_/_tag_ is recorded on a separate page. At the same time, the number of these _category_/_tag_ type pages is equal to the number of `categories` / `tags` elements for all posts, which means that the two number must be exactly the same.

With the increasing number of posts, the number of categories and tags will increase several times! If we still manually create these *category*/*tag* type files, it will obviously be a super time-consuming job, and it is very likely to miss some of them(i.e. when you click on the missing `category` or `tag` link from a post or somewhere, it will complain to you '404'). The good news is that we got a lovely script tool `_scripts/sh/create_pages.sh` to finish the boring task. Basically we will use it via `tools/publish.sh` instead of running it separately. Check out its use case [here]({{ "/posts/getting-started/#option-1-built-by-github-pages" | relative_url }}).

You can choose to create this file manually, but as you may notice, the better approach is to let it be automatically generated by a tool script. And `_scripts/sh/dump_lastmod.sh` was born for this! Similar to the another script `_scripts/sh/create_pages.sh` mentioned above, it is also be called from `tools/publish.sh`, so it doesn't have to be used separately.

When some posts have been modified since their published date and also the file `_data/updates.yml` was created correctly, a list with the label **Recent Updates** will be displayed in the right panel of the desktop view, which records the five most recently modified articles.

## Table of Contents
By default, the **T**able **o**f **C**ontents (TOC) is displayed on the right panel of the post. If you want to turn it off globally, go to `_config.yml` and set the variable `toc` to `false`. If you want to turn off TOC for specific post, add the following to post's [Front Matter](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/front-matter/):
