When the website is configured with
baseURL = "https://example.com/sub-website/", the current link render hook will turn[](/some/link)to<a href="https://example.com/some/link"></a>rather than<a href="https://example.com/sub-website/some/link"></a>. A real-world example is the theme's documentation website, where a link with a title ofOrganize Filewill be redirected to the 404 page. This PR fixes this problem. Note that merging this will introduce a breaking change, but I personally think that this makes sense, in that the Hextra theme haven't published a major release ever since.By the way, in my last PR #657, I mistakenly used
?for URL fragments. The fix is rather apparent, which is only a one-character substitution, so I put it along with this PR for convenience and simplicity. Apology for my carelessness.
