here ill show u
is it cus i haven't published the site yet? i do have it built on pages tho so im lost
its deployed
You're sent to
github.com/...?ya
idk why
when u click the link on the pdf u get sent there
https://github.com/...
that
im sent there
That's really weird considering the URL is
internetslave.github.io not .com. Which likely points to a problem setting the link. github.com and github.io are as far as whatever you're making the PDF with completely different domains as close as google.com going to github.com
Double check that you have set the URL correctlyoh
Also you should be able to right click the link in the PDF and copy the URL. As you may be redirected to
github.com from github.ioi use github.io
in the pdf?
is that the issue
wait
github.io is what you want for Pagesya
i use that
In the PDF right click the link and copy the URL and then paste it here.
I should have suggested this first.
the link that is copied is this: https://github.com/...
even tho the link i have in the pdf is this:
internetslave.github.io/personal-website/
Without
https://?https://github.com/...
this exact link ends up being copied^
from this: "internetslave.github.io/personal-website/" in the pdf
You want
https:// at the start of the url https://internetslave.github.io/personal-website/kk
one sec
Links can't assume
http or https when not used on the webi think i tried that
but idt it worked
still dont work
still this is being copied
and error page shows up
That's really strange. I can't think of how a
github.io url is converted to a github.com url in the PDF. It does make sense if being redirected because of a bad github.io url. But to right click and copy the link in the PDF to be given github.com
I just want to confirm, that when you right click and copy the link from the PDF you are pasting it here as is. You did not then paste the URL into a browser and then copy where it redirected?https://github.com/...
ya im pasting it as is
right click
Then I have no clue
copy link from pdf
and pasting it
is it cus it's a pdf from overleaf?
idek
even
other links like
get it to this
like this github link
wait
i think i found issue
