# Add new blog post
1. Create new directory at
`/content/talks/yyyy-mm-dd-talk-title-event-name` and `index.md` in
the same directory and populate with the following metadata:
```toml
+++
title = "title of the talk"
date = "yyyy-mm-dd"
description = "description of talk, will be displayed in talk listing"
[taxonomies]
tags = ['gna']
[extra]
# **Only use author nicks in blog post Markdown files, it is used to lookup author details.**
author = 'imbatman' # speaker nickname
+++
```
2. Add author details in [`config.toml`](../config.toml) in `authors`
under `extra` section:
```toml
[extra]
# Put all your custom variables here
authors = [
{ "nick"="imbatman", name="Batman", "website"="https://batman.example.org" },
{ "nick"="superman", name="Superman", "website" ="https://superman.example.org" }
]
```

Markdown files, it is used to lookup author details.**
