Adding another section similar to Blog section

[clementwong]

I was wondering how to create another section similar to the "blog" section. For instance, I was thinking of creating a "blog" section and "daily thoughts" section.

The step I took so far:
1). in navigation.yml,

I added

• title: "Daily thoughts"
  url: /daily-thoughts/

2). made a folder called "_daily-thoughts"

3). Made my markdown post "daily-thought_1.md" and save that file in "_daily-thoughts"

4). added daily-thought.html in _pages

---

layout: archive
permalink: /daily-thoughts/
title: "Daily Thoughts"
author_profile: true

---

{% include base_path %}
{% capture written_year %}'None'{% endcapture %}
{% for post in site.daily-thoughts %}
{% capture year %}{{ post.date | date: '%Y' }}{% endcapture %}
{% if year != written_year %}

{{ year }}

{% capture written_year %}{{ year }}{% endcapture %} {% endif %} {% include archive-single.html %} {% endfor %}

It seems that I am to get the section created with the title. But my content "daily-thought_1.md" saved in "_daily-thoughts", is not displayed at all. What am I doing wrong? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

did you all add your daily thoughts as a collection in the config? e.g.

collections:
  daily-thoughts:
    output: true
    permalink: /:collection/:name/
