On deployment to S3, social media links in the Footer fragment are broken. Instead of linking to the social media page, they create a relative link with the website URL first, followed by the social media page.
What you expected to happen:
Social media links correctly link to the appropriate page
How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):
Deploy a website and follow a social media link from the footer fragment (does not occur in local 'hugo server' site)
Anything else we need to know?:
The fix I found is changing layouts/fragments/footer.html
line 30: <a href="{{ .URL | relLangURL }}" class="ignore-color-change
to this:
line 30: <a href="{{ .URL | absLangURL }}" class="ignore-color-change
Changing from a relative URL to an absolute URL seems to solve this issue. Happy to create a PR and implement the fix if given push access.
