Hello When i have my image in a folder named “Image” and my file “sample.md” is in the Root, then i access the picture “pix.jpg” with the path “image\pix.jpg”. But how i access the the picture, when the file “sample.md” is in a subfolder? That means “sample.md” ist in the folder “/_posts” and the pictures are in the folder “/image”. I tryed with the prefix “[repository]/image/pix.jpg”. Nothing works. Please a little information to solve my confusion. Greetings |

Hey there @petergyger, help’s arrived. You can reference static files (like images) to your Jekyll posts by adding it them to a subdirectory like /assets and then referencing that in Markdown: Let me know how you go |

Thanks for letting me know @petergyger, Let’s check if adding a forward slash before the reference helps. For example: If that doesn’t help, let’s check if adding " …" to before the first forward slash helps: |

The path of the link in github markdown follow the linux convention, so the second example that give @timrossback should work. If not you can give to us the tree of the projects/repository and we can help in a better way. There is another way to link image, using the absolute path like this: -Gabriele- |

Here’s one method I use frequently. Whenever I need to fetch an image from somewhere. I don’t save it in the root folder. Instead what I do is I try to upload it somewhere and take the image address from there to fetch directly. The one service I use is the google blogger. Where I’ve created a blog, where I create draft posts for saving images online. And by right-clicking, I can get the image address. I think this might be helpful for you. Source: ExactlyHowLong |
