Add the baseurl to the permalinks in the RSS feed

[davidbgk]

Otherwise it leads to 404s like http://blog.garstasio.com/events/

I'm afraid I don't quite understand the issue here. How can this be reproduced?

[davidbgk]

Sorry I wasn't very explicit here.

When you follow your blog through the RSS feed, you can see that there are permalink with relative ones:

 <link>/events/</link>
 <guid isPermaLink="true">/events/</guid>

It leads to 404s when you click from your RSS reader (e.g. NetNewsWire) because the link is computed from the base url (just the domain name).

I just realized pasting that example that my change is incomplete and you have to modify your url setting too.

Hmm, you're right. This is an issue. Seems like this is described in jekyll/jekyll#332. Are you confident your change will fix the issue? If not, looks like I'll need to spend some time investigating further when I get some more free time.

[davidbgk]

I'm not confident given that I didn't test it. But, my change will add the baseurl which looks better than the actual 404 URL, note that you have to mention the url setting in your _config.yml to fix the bug completely and get a fully qualified URL/permalink.

i combined your fix with adjustments to the config.yml. looks good now. Thanks for finding this and providing help.

I confirm that it works now in my agregator, it was mostly a selfish help :)
