I am at my wits end here. I\'ve been trying to look at all other example github project pages I could find and even the blogs but none exhibit the problems I am getting. First,
When you have a slash at the front of your permalink, it means that all URLs should be relative to the site root. This is the reason that it's going to http://corroded.github.com/exercises/title-here
instead of http://corroded.github.com/projectname/exercises/title-here
. Try it without the first slash:
permalink: exercises/:title
The same thing goes for any URLs you create with HTML. If you have:
it will always go to the root of the domain (e.g. http://corroded.github.com/about
). If you're project is called 'projectname', you can use HTML like
to link directly to pages (e.g. http://corroded.github.com/projectname/about
).
Of course, you can also use relative URLs (i.e. URLs without a leading slash) as well. You just have to be aware of where you are in the directory tree.
