I made a multilanguage website using [github.io](http://github.io) and, for some unknown reason, english version of website is loading fine, but when I try to change language using button on top-right, instead of redirecting me to [Hugo Academic CV Theme](http://dvdidenko.github.io/ru) (which is working fine btw) it redirects to localhost1313/ru.

I tried to solve this issue for some time but I did not find working solution

You pushed your site public folder to your repo.

1. The public has been created using `hugo server` that will replace your baseURL with localhost:1313. This is for local testing only.

> To create a public dir that can be served, generate it with `hugo` (without server)

1. You have a build action, that tries to build a jekyll site. No use of that with a hugo generated site.

You might consider to switch to a hugo workflow.

> push your hugo sources (without public folder) and replace your workflow with one using Hugo to generate your site.
