R blogdown: figures generated in .Rmd file don't show when blog is displayed on R-bloggers

We successfully and easily created a blog using blogdown for R. The blog looks great and works as expected.

The figures, generated automatically upon the rmarkdown knitting, are displayed properly as shown here (see the second figure with the density plots, the first one (the logo) being inserted with a full URL).

However, when this post was reposted on R-bloggers, the image doesn't show...

As I supposed that it was an issue in the URL, I tried setting relativeURLs to false in the config.toml. Unfortunately, this made the image not rendering on the blog itself.

Being quite new to websites, I am not sure how what is wrong and how to address it. Thank you!

I just resolved a similar issue. I am hosting a webpage through github using the hugo Academic template. There is a parameter in the 'params.toml' file called math that controls global LaTeX rendering. Setting math=true in the 'params.toml' file lead to an issue like that on the R-bloggers site, where it seemed like paths to images from .Rmd code chunks were no longer constructed properly. For me, this was fixed by setting math=false in the params.toml file. For pages that needed LaTeX rendering, I then included math:true in their YAML.
