Create a new collection

A collection is like a folder that contains a group of pages. A page is like a file in your Github repository.

Step 1 Create a file, which will represent a page on your site.

Step 2 Specify the folder name

Step 3 Add a forward slash to fix the folder name and set a file name.

A file name usually corresponds to your page name for easy reference.

Step 4 Specify the title and permalink of the page

Things to note:

1. You should enclose the title and permalink inside three dashes ---

2. Permalink should not have any spaces in between.

3. If you're creating a page inside a collection, you should specify in the permalink that the page is inside the folder. For example, for a page named My page inside a folder called My New Folder, the permalink will look like this /my-new-folder/my-page/

---
title: New Page
permalink: /my-new-folder/my-page/ 
---

Step 5 Scroll to the bottom and click commit at the bottom of the page to save the file.
