You can now specify your own metadata inside blog posts. For instance, if you put at the top of your post’s file:
Thumbnail: /public/test.jpeg
You can access this variable from your template like so:
{{#entry}}
<img src="{{metadata.thumbnail}}" />
...
The possibilities are infinite! One thing to note – metadata keys are case insensitive. I’d also recommend using template conditionals to prevent your layout breaking if you don’t consistently specify this metadata:
{{#metadata.thumbnail}}
<img src="{{metadata.thumbnail}}" />
{{/metadata.thumbnail}}
{{^metadata.thumbnail}}
<!-- nothing will show if you didn't specify a thumb -->
{{/metadata.thumbnail}}
