internal linking to posts does not exist, jekyll

I ran htmlproofer and got this failure.

internally linking to /posts/title, which does not exist

how do I fix the liquid tags in jekyll so that the HTML outputs correctly when built?

I think it has something to do with this line in index.html

<a href="{{ post.url | relative_url }}" title="{{ post.title }}"></a>

when I add {{ post }} in this line

<a href="{{ post.url | relative_url }}{{ post }}" title="{{ post.title }}">

the posts at least show on the index.html, even though it makes the site look broken. When {{ post }} is removed the main page looks normal, but when clicking on posts they lead to a 404...

HTMLProofer should check the generated site located at _site directory. This folder contains the generated files of your websites that has been processed by Jekyll, that way the failing links would be checked properly by htmlproofer.

For example:

htmlproofer --check-html \
        --internal-domains localhost:4000 \
        --assume-extension \
        --disable-external \
        _site
