Broken images

[PotentialStyx]

Issue

When you visit a blog post for example https://blog.replit.com/rui-eng all the images work fine but adding a / to the url https://blog.replit.com/rui-eng/ breaks all the images and now you only see the alt text.

Cause

This is caused by a simple fault in how images seem to be linked on the blog. They use relative paths so the image on https://blog.replit.com/rui-eng load just fine to https://blog.replit.com/images/...
but images on https://blog.replit.com/rui-eng/ load to https://blog.replit.com/rui-eng/images/... which doesnt work

Solutions

The lazy one

Forward all traffic from blog.replit.com/<post>/images/... to blog.replit.com/images/..., this would require 0 editing of old blog posts and is the simplest solution

Real solution

Use absolute links in the images so /images/... instead of images/... in the markdown. This would require editing older posts that use relative links
