Should the links in _head.html be absolute?
Opened this issue · 2 comments
I was trying this out and noticed a bunch of 404s for the favicon and i.css files. I think the links in _head.html should either be absolute, e.g. href="/favicon.ico" or include the liquid tag for the site root: href="{{ site.url }}/favicon.ico".
That should probably be a step in the build process but I haven't gotten that far, I welcome any help via pull requests :)
This works locally for me - but both of your solutions break my flow. I do a lot of device testing and the ip of my machine sometimes changes, so managing the ip address as a url in the config is a little bit of a pain for me personally. It does most likely break the url on post pages, but for my concerns - I only want to check how the icon renders, so I can do it off of the home page just fine.
As most people probably don't have my workflow I'm comfortable making the dynamic liquid tag the default.
I'll add in some comments that indicate how to do device testing.
Thanks for bringing this up.
Yeah it seems like the current way would work fine a for site totally in the root directory, but as soon as you have a page in a subdirectory it falls down.
