Deploying jekyll to a subdirectory

Hi i'm trying to deploy jekyll to a subdirectory 2 levels deep on my server, /dev/more

Tried following this link, but all my css links and hyperlinks keeps referring to my root folder public_html instead of the /dev/more folder.

I'm trying to deploy jekyll's stock blog out of the box. uploaded the _site folder to the /dev/more folder on my server

I can fix my css and js calls by using <link href="./css/syntax.css"> instead of <link href="/css/syntax.css"> but not the generated jekyll links to my posts.

I'm guessing i either have to do something on my _config.yml or on my .htaccess, so far i've had no luck.

This issue has been asked here on stackoverflow without any answers

When you have this (absolute) path:

/foo/index.html

You're saying, "Take me to the file index.html in the directory foo found in the root directory", aka the folder where Apache/Ngios/Python/PHP/whatever is serving the content from.

This relative path:

foo/index.html

Is saying, "Take me to the file index.html in the directory foo found in the directory I'm currently in."
