I published a project here: [https://renkulab.io/projects/stanislaus.schymanski/essm\_egu\_2020](https://renkulab.io/projects/stanislaus.schymanski/essm_egu_2020)  
In the readme file, I added relative links to the key jupyter notebooks, which work in gitlab, but unfortunately, when clicking on them in renkulab, people get a “Project not found” error. This is because relative links in the readme file are translated correctly in gitlab, but not on the project landing page in renkulab. The link to `notebooks/Priestley-Taylor_equation.ipynb` on the landing page points to `https://renkulab.io/projects/stanislaus.schymanski/essm_egu_2020/notebooks/Priestley-Taylor_equation.ipynb` instead of `https://renkulab.io/projects/stanislaus.schymanski/essm_egu_2020/files/blob/notebooks/api_features.ipynb`, which displays correctly if I access the same README file through files… in the project. Could this be fixed?

Yes, this is indeed confusing and annoying. We need to think a bit about how best to handle these URLs in markdown content within a project.

I have created an issue for this: [https://github.com/SwissDataScienceCenter/renku-ui/issues/941](https://github.com/SwissDataScienceCenter/renku-ui/issues/941)

We will see what can be done.

Thank you, @cramakri! I will add a warning and link to the gitlab README. I also noticed that the rendering of jupyter notebooks in renkulab has a problem that is not present in gitlab. Compare [https://renkulab.io/projects/stanislaus.schymanski/essm\_egu\_2020/files/blob/notebooks/Priestley-Taylor\_equation.ipynb](https://renkulab.io/projects/stanislaus.schymanski/essm_egu_2020/files/blob/notebooks/Priestley-Taylor_equation.ipynb) with [https://renkulab.io/gitlab/stanislaus.schymanski/essm\_egu\_2020/blob/master/notebooks/Priestley-Taylor\_equation.ipynb](https://renkulab.io/gitlab/stanislaus.schymanski/essm_egu_2020/blob/master/notebooks/Priestley-Taylor_equation.ipynb)  
Shall I create another issue for this?
