When using servr::jekyll() on R, where should I save my Rmd files? -

with rmd files on root (eg. on /knitr-jekyll/) turning md files, not on html files. thus, appear simple markdown text. tried put them on /_source , on /_posts get's worse, in case don't md files.

i found creating separate folder solves problem.

/kintr-jekyll/_rmd/test.rmd 

but remember when knit rmd md knit _post folder if using standard bootstrap template. make sure specified figure output. easiest write function you:

knitpost <- function(input, base.url = "/") {   require(knitr)   opts_knit$set(base.url = base.url)   fig.path <- paste0("figures/", sub(".rmd$", "", basename(input)), "/")   opts_chunk$set(fig.path = fig.path)   opts_chunk$set(fig.cap = "center")   render_jekyll()   knit(input, envir = parent.frame()) 

lastly, go make sure in .md file in knitr-jekyll/_post figures referenced. should within test.md:

<img align="middle" src="/figures/test/test_image.jpg">
