FlowRouter appending url (route) prefix to all links

Latest meteor JS version breaks FlowRouter or latest FlowRouter version breaks Meteor JS, I can't find the one between the 2 causing the problem Meteor Js I wanted to start a new project using Meteor and staringatlights:flow-router

staringatlights:flow-router
kadira:blaze-layout

I have FlowRouter setup this way:

   var public = FlowRouter.group();

    public.route('/', {
      name: 'home', action(){
        BlazeLayout.render('MainLayout', {main: 'home'});
      }
    });

    var authusers = FlowRouter.group({
        prefix: '/private',
        name: 'authusers'
    });

    authusers.route('/dashboard', {
        name: 'dashboard', action(){
            BlazeLayout.render('DashboardLayout', {dashboards: 'dashboard'});
        }
    });

I have a layout for other templates. The CSS and JS links are from the public folder. I am using a template I don't know the reason why FlowRouter is appending the prefix of the route to all these links.

</template>

This is the error I am getting. It is not. The router is appending the route prefix to all links.

Solution

  • I believe this is because your urls are relative, and so the browser takes the current url and adds the link path to it.

    To solve this, use add a leading slash so it will resolve as relative to the domain and not the current page. Eg:

    <script src="/themes/adminlte3/plugins/jquery/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="/themes/adminlte3/plugins/bootstrap/js/bootstrap.bundle.min.js"></script>
<script src="/themes/adminlte3/dist/js/adminlte.js"></script>
<script src="/themes/adminlte3/dist/js/demo.js"></script>
<script src="/themes/adminlte3/plugins/sparkline/jquery.sparkline.min.js"></script>
<script src="/themes/adminlte3/plugins/jvectormap/jquery-jvectormap-1.2.2.min.js"></script>
<script src="/themes/adminlte3/plugins/jvectormap/jquery-jvectormap-world-mill-en.js"></script>
<script src="/themes/adminlte3/plugins/slimScroll/jquery.slimscroll.min.js"></script>
<script src="/themes/adminlte3/plugins/chartjs-old/Chart.min.js"></script>
<script src="/themes/adminlte3/dist/js/pages/dashboard2.js"></script>
