Okay so I think there is a bigger problem here. The lib folder only includes a library of information used by the website. Not the website itself. This means you haven't actually uploaded the website. The website is exported alongside the lib folder as folders and html files. You need both the lib folder and the html files. If you export into an empty folder you should upload every file that shows up in that folder. Additionally, to create an index file, you just create a note directly inside obsidian itself and call it index. This is only needed if you want a home page, you can always access any page through a direct URL. |

I have a problem: I created and hosted a piece of software with vercel and associated it with my GitHub, and I now use this plugin to export my notes: Online Web Server, and then put the generated folder directly on GitHub, but my site is not updated。我site：https://www.glacierchen.asia/.我GitHub：https://github.com/Glaciercowww/nevergiveup。 |

So this means that i have to create a site and the lib folder to it. But what should i use to create it so i wont face problems. I just need to host it and be able to acess my canvas. Can you send me example of a site as gut repository thats has canvas in it so i could recreate it. I need to host the canvas only and whenever i export something new where do i add the new lib folder in my site for it to show.Lets say a second canvas. do i just stack lib folder 1 lib folder 2 or ? |

To create the site you just export files using the plugin. It should create the site and the lib folder. How are you selecting which files you want to export? When you want to export a second file just select both files and hit export it will add the new one to the site. |

https://github.com/dgudim/uni-math-notes Here is an example from someone else's vault you can check out. If the lib folder is the only thing that is being exported then there is either a bug or you aren't selecting the files to be exported. How are you selecting which files you want the plugin to export? |

how do i add more files to the existing composition. Lets say i generate files in obsidian again . it gives me a lib foler again how do i add the files so it shows up on the same page. First i export my canvas but after that i export some notes and i get the notes in lib folder same as the first time where do i put that new lib folder or the files in it. In the same directories or i have to separate them. |

If you don't remove the first export it automatically adds on to the old one. You should always select all the files that you want in your export (including ones that have already been exported before). You don't have to export each for individually, you can select multiple files and it will create a site with all those files. If you keep them all selected it will only reprocess new or updated files. As long as you don't delete the exported files. |

Here is what fixed it. You have to make a index.html and add it to the folder of your exported notes and then you have to add a index.html in the root of your project in which you have to add a code that redirects to the index.html in the folder that the other index.html is ( or the notes folder) |

Well add it to chat gpt and ask it which part you have to change and how so you dont break it. Im not sure either but you have to keep the reference to your folders in it so it works. Other than that everything else should be changable. |

For anyone who comes across this again, I had the same issue and I don't feel like the answer here is specific enough for noobs (like me). You have 2 Options: PS- if you know HTML, I'm sure you could make something more awesome. I'm a noob and just want to share the pictures of dragons we killed with my party. The code for the Index.html file (do not have the export create it as it will not redirect properly): <!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
