I use hugo to establish my github page and have written an article.  
[here is my github page](http://eleanortfang.github.io/techNotes/)

The problem is that I can see the article title in my github page but I couldn’t get into the article page.  
Once clicked on the article link, it will not go the page with the content I wrote.  
I just git clone a theme and do not change anything.  
What do I need to do with this issue?

It’s hard to trace to the issue only with the generated output. Would it be possible to upload your current setup in a temporary branch?

I have upload a test repo. The hugo site files are in the hugosrc directory.

It looks like you need to set your `baseurl` in `config.toml` to `/techNotes`. You are publishing to `/techNotes`, but the links are being generated based on `/`. The link to your post should be `/techNotes/post/OCRDigitNumber/`.

You are right. I changed my baseurl from “[http://eleanorTFang.github.io/](http://eleanorTFang.github.io/)” to “[http://eleanorTFang.github.io/techNotes](http://eleanorTFang.github.io/techNotes)” and it works now. Thanks a lot.

according to moorereason’s reply, the problem is caused by incorrectly setting of baseurl. And it works now.
