I have currently my octopress blog up and running on my digital ocean droplet and everything works fine. But it is in the root folder of the droplet and I want to move it to a blog folder. Is that just moving all content to that subfolder, or is there more work to do to get this done to be aware of?
According to the Octopress documentation, if you are deploying in a subdirectory you'll need to update the following files:
If you're deploying to a subdirectory on your site, or if you're using Github's project pages, make sure you set up your urls correctly in your configs. You can do this almost automatically:
rake set_root_dir[your/path] # To go back to publishing to the document root rake set_root_dir[/] Then update your _config.yml and Rakefile as follows: # _config.yml url: http://yoursite.com/your/path # Rakefile (if deploying with rsync) document_root = "~/yoursite.com/your/path"To manually configure deployment to a subdirectory, you'll change _config.yml, > config.rb and Rakefile. Here's an example for deploying a site to the /awesome subdirectory:
# _config.yml destination: public/awesome url: http://example.com/awesome subscribe_rss: /awesome/atom.xml root: /awesome # config.rb - for Compass & Sass http_path = "/awesome" http_images_path = "/awesome/images" http_fonts_path = "/awesome/fonts" css_dir = "public/awesome/stylesheets" # Rakefile public_dir = "public/awesome" # If deploying with rsync, update your Rakefile path document_root = "~/yoursite.com/awesome"
