Website Update Log - January
Date: 24/1/2023
#1: Major Error Fix
- Problem: Some posts in “Journal” don’t show up.
- Thoughts and Solution: I’ve found out some unnecessary HTML files that may have “masked” my Markdown files. These files seem to come from _sites, and it may be a result of moving files around carelessly. Therefore I have deleted all these files.
- Further Prevention of Problem: Potentially deleting _sites permeanantly? As for how to do this I will further investigate
Solved!!!
#2: Navigation Problems
- Problem: In Physics page, in some sections, like
/Home/Physics/Astrophysics (Part 2)
when I click on Physics , Error404 appears, which causes huge problems.
- Thoughts and Solution: https://henry-yip.github.io/physics is the url appearing instead of https://henry-yip.github.io/Physics. I have changed everything in _config.yaml, navigation.yaml but this doesn’t solve the problem
Unsolved!!!
#3: Image Resizing
- Problem: Auto-image resizing isn’t enabled in this website, so some images have awkward size
- Thoughts and Solution: I have tried to download jekyll-responsive-image but my something in my gemfile doesn’t allow me to.
Unsolved!!!
#4: VSCode Source Code - Takes too long to commit
- Problem: As above. Sometimes I have to close VSCode/restart the device/abort changes
- Thoughts: Maybe learning git commands can solve the problem? Or I can upload _sites files (i.e. rendered HTML files)to Github. In a sense this adds security but considering the time and inconvenience implied, I think not!
Unsolved!
