Re: Gitlab groups and publishing static web pages

Hi

I got back to this after some time.

So. I added the .yml file to the 'with-context' project and hoped it
worked.  Alas, it did not.

Now the question is what went wrong.

Is it because I insist on trying NOT to have a separate repository for the
documentation?  Anything else I can do?

Thanks

All the best

MA
