App icon in header at Privacy Policy page won't load about automatic-app-landing-page HOT 3 OPEN

This has been sitting here for a little while, but in case anyone out there runs into this: you've probably just got relative file paths in your config.yml instead of absolute paths. Instead of this...

app_icon: assets/appicon.png

do this:

app_icon: /assets/appicon.png

Same goes for other resources that are accessible from multiple pages, like your press kit 👍

from automatic-app-landing-page.

I managed to fix it by editing header.html file.

from this:
{% if page.url != '/' %} <a href="../" target="_self"><img class="headerIcon" src="{{ site.app_icon }}"></a> {% else %} <img class="headerIcon" src="{{ site.app_icon }}"> {% endif %}

to this :

{% if page.url != '/' %} <a href="../index.html" target="_self"><img class="headerIcon" src="../assets/appicon.png"></a> {% else %} <img class="headerIcon" src="{{ site.app_icon }}"> {% endif %}

hope it helps! 👍🏻

Did something change to where this isn't working as of late? I recently loaded this template and am trying to add images to presskit.md and other pages using

![](/assets/image.png)

It shows fine in the "Preview" pane on Github, but after publishing, the images don't show up. I have older sites deployed from this template that use this exact method that work fine.

Thanks!
