GitHub Pages link not working

[mstackhouse]

The link https://eddelbuettel.github.io/rcppsimdjson/ is returning a 404.

Ok, thanks for noticing. That is also normal and expected. Where did you see a link to that URL? Or in other words what made you think that should be something?

I only use docs/ to serve two pngs.

Hi @eddelbuettel,

I was looking for a package website associated with RCppSimdJson and it looks like there's a GitHub pages build setup for the website: https://github.com/eddelbuettel/rcppsimdjson/actions/runs/4975273475. The link from the pages build there is what I've copied.

Thanks for the follow-up @mstackhouse

In essence, that is a problem you have with GitHub. As I said yesterday, I take advantage of docs/ to serve (all but two) files via GH Pages (so that the README can reference it also at eg CRAN).

That leads GH to autorun some conversion jobs I cannot turn off (I tried with .nojekyll and what not). But at the end of the day your inference that there must a site because the conversions runs is not correct. That's all.
