如何在Jekyll中让站点根目录引用“_pages”并调整访问URL？

The issue you’re hitting is that Jekyll uses a file’s directory path in its generated URL by default. To adjust this so your pages show up at /some-page/ or /pages/some-page/, you can override the permalink setting in your _config.yml defaults. Here are two straightforward solutions:

1. Make Pages Accessible at the Root (e.g., /some-page/) #

Add a permalink value to your _pages scope in _config.yml that strips out the _pages prefix. You can choose between using the page’s filename or its front matter title:

Using the Filename (Recommended) #

This uses the page’s filename (without the .md extension) as the URL path. For example, some-page.md becomes /some-page/:

# Defaults
defaults:
  # _pages
  - scope:
      path: "_pages"
      type: "pages"
    values:
      layout: "single"
      read_time: true
      permalink: "/:basename/"

Using the Page Title #

If you prefer to use the title field from each page’s YAML front matter (e.g., title: "Some Page" becomes /some-page/), use this instead:

permalink: "/:title/"

Note: Ensure every page in _pages has a title in its front matter for this to work reliably.

2. Make Pages Accessible Under /pages/ (e.g., /pages/some-page/) #

Adjust the permalink to include a pages prefix instead of the _pages directory name:

# Defaults
defaults:
  # _pages
  - scope:
      path: "_pages"
      type: "pages"
    values:
      layout: "single"
      read_time: true
      permalink: "/pages/:basename/"

Final Steps #

After updating your _config.yml:

• Stop your local Jekyll server (if it’s running)
• Rebuild the site with jekyll build or restart the server with jekyll serve
• Test the new URLs to confirm they load your pages correctly

This approach keeps your pages organized in the _pages directory while giving you full control over their public URL structure.
