Please post your _config.yml.

[sammcj]

I'm just using the standard one thats generated by jekyll new:

samm-mbp ~/git/myblog % cat _config.yml
# Site settings
name: Dat site title tho
title: Your awesome title
email: your-email@domain.com
description: "Write an awesome description for your new site here. You can edit this line in _config.yml. It will appear in your document head meta (for Google search results) and in your feed.xml site description."
baseurl: "http://yourdomain.com"

# Build settings

permalinks: pretty

[parkr]

Change url to http://yourdomain.com and remove baseurl. http://blog.parkermoore.de/2014/04/27/clearing-up-confusion-around-baseurl/

[sammcj]

Changed baseurl to url

# Site settings
name: Dat site title tho
title: Your awesome title
email: your-email@domain.com
description: "Write an awesome description for your new site here. You can edit this line in _config.yml. It will appear in your document head meta (for Google search results) and in your feed.xml site description."
url: "http://yourdomain.com"

The default site now loads but is broken.

Try

baseurl: "/"
url: "http://yourdomain.com"

Does that work?

[sammcj]

Updated _config as advised,
Exactly the same broken layout

[albertogg]

Yes, and maybe your site is broken because you used {{ site.baseurl }} in various parts and now this variable changed.

[sammcj]

@albertogg My site isn't broken, this is a brand new site generated by jekyll new as per the docs

[parkr]

Yes, and maybe your site is broken because you used {{ site.baseurl }} in various parts and now this variable changed.

Yeah, Ben's updated site template ( #2268 ) uses baseurl heavily. Urgh.

[ghost]

@sammcj I get the the same error when using baseurl: "/" setting it as an empty string, "", seems to not break the layout though

[albertogg]

let's check! and fix this. thanks @sammcj!

[sammcj]

No worries, hope it's an easy one.

[albertogg]

@parkr are you on it? I can fixit I assume.

[parkr]

All I had to do was:

diff --git a/_config.yml b/_config.yml

@parkr Confirmed working.

Thanks guys, this was probably the fastest turnaround I've ever seen!

[troyswanson]

Well, this is a busy night 😉

[albertogg]

LOL, @troyswanson indeed.
