I'm not sure if this has been brought up before, but when previewing with a baseUrl that is set to a website URL (e.g. http://www.ilikedogs.com/), it will start the server using that exact path (i.e. http://localhost:8080/http://www.ilikedogs.com/). I'd love to have my assets permalink'd (so the image will load in RSS feeds) and modifying baseUrl helps. Perhaps there should be two config options (baseUrl and basePath)?

Yeah that option is poorly named, should be basePath... The example blog's rss feed uses locals.url to create a permalink with the domain included.

Ah I see. I was not aware of this article.getHtml(locals.url)(in feed.jade). Really useful! :) Thanks 👍
