I want a template something like the below, and be prompted only once each for Title and Abstract. Is that possible somehow? Any help appreciated. : * TODO Write %^{Title} Blog post : #+begin_html : --- : title: %^{Title} : layout: post : abstract: %^{Abstract} : --- : #+end_html : : %^{Abstract} : : %?
