Anyone using pages and ? I'm having a shite time getting my challenge page to build. 😡

@sivy @oreolek hmm I'm a bit in the dark here, but from the gitlab howto document I don't think the committed-to-git filename is supposed to have ".well-known", but rather the generated page knows where to go because of the permalink: in the front matter. "Just create a file in your blog folder that looks like this: ..."

@stylus @oreolek It depends on the Jekyll version - I need to figure out which version I'm getting.

@oreolek @stylus jekyll 3.3.1, so I should be good with the default setup; let me tweak that.

@stylus @oreolek So, was editing the wrong file, found the right file, but gitlab insists on publishing to "<code>.html" and site 404s on the challenge request for "/<code>"

computer is hard

@sivy @oreolek hmm their example does show the ".html" suffix in the frontmatter's permalink:, weird.

@sivy I haven't done it myself, but I found these instructions and it looks like an absolute SLOG that breaks the best part of a functioning letsencrypt installation: automatic updates by cron.

@stylus Yeah, that's what I've been using. The Jekyll build is just not working. I know I've done it before (which is why I'm doing this at all - my cert expired earlier this year)
