How to change relative paths in Franklink.jl?-CodePudding

I am trying to host a website in github pages but relative links doesn't work (css is not loaded).

My web page has a base url as follows: user.github.io/website
I have the following generated structure in gh-pages branch:

.  
├── css  
│    └── styles.css  
├── index.html

The index.html file has the following:

<!doctype html>
   <html lang=en >
   <meta charset=UTF-8 >
   <link rel=stylesheet href="/css/styles.css">
   ...

As you can see the link to the style-sheet is /css/styles.css, so it would go to my parent directory, resulting in the absolute link: user.github.io/css/styles.css, while the correct path should be user.github.io/website/css/styles.css.

The only way to fix this at the best of my knowledge is to eliminate the / in the href in the index file:

   <link rel=stylesheet href="css/styles.css">

But as I have a lot of links and this is an auto generated html I don't know how to fix this from Franklin.jl, also this could be a error of gh pages configuration too.

From here,

In any case, before deploying, if you're working on a project website i.e. a website whose root URL will look like username.gitlab.io/project/ then you should add the following line in your config.md file:
@def prepath = "project"
the publish function will then ensure that all links are fixed before deploying your website.

In other words, it sounds like you're doing a project website, so you need to let Franklin know by setting prepath
