After publishing the maven site for my project, I'm having problems with the relative links working correctly on the site menu under the section 'Parent Project'. Right now, it points to '../../index.html'. However, the true location of the parent site is '../parent/index.html'
I think the directory structure of our project has something to do with it, but it isn't easy to change and I'm having trouble figuring out where I can make adjustments to fix the site links instead of reorganizing all our projects. Instead of the obvious folder structure for parents and children like this: Our folder structure looks like this: Looking at the pom.xml for CHILD, we have the following defined for the dependencies: and this defined for the parent: I run 'mvn clean' then 'mvn site' then 'mvn site:deploy' (not sure if all those are necessary, but I'm a beginner and I've found it works). When I view the site and look at the webpage for CHILD, the 'Modules' links on the menu of the site link correctly but the 'Parent Project' links do not point to the correct location. It seems they always just point up one level site directory structure. What is the best way to handle this so links to parent project will be correct? For example, instead of the parent of CHILD pointing to ../../index.html, I need it to point to ../parent/index.html. I'm using maven-site-plugin:3.0. I haven't set up any site descriptor files yet, but I can do that if needed. My distributionManagement site url is defined only in the pom.xml file for 'parent'.
