EDIT: I think i fixed it. I added the _redirects file to my angular.json in both assets arrays. The only reason i knew to do that is because I was looking through my other angular project and realized that I did not do that for this project. I fixed it and redeployed and it seems to be fixed. This really should be emphasized in the help article for others who are using angular.
Custom Domain: helpinghandcode.com
Netlify Domain: lucid-volhard-7848bd
DNS: Namecheap
Setup: linked to my github; deploys every time I make a git push
_redirects file included in code files: YES
Multiple URLS affected: YES
Issue: I have successfully deployed an angular front end to netlify and connected a custom domain. Initially, loading the homepage of the site works fine, and i can navigate through the site with the navigation bar i coded. The problem is, when I send someone a direct link to a page that isn’t the home page (helpinghandcode.com/calendly) it doesn’t work and netlify serves a nice 404 page not found error. However, if I go to the home page of the website and then navigate with the navigation bar to that same page that I was trying to access, it loads it just fine. The issue seems to be happening with all of my subpages.
Having previously deployed an angular frontend with Netlify, I have already included a _redirects file in this project in the same place as i did with that previous project(that doesn’t have this issue).
) I am using their inline embeded widget in my code so I don’t have a whole lot of options to debug this particular part of the issue myself. At least the page loads, even though it’s not quite what it’s meant to look like.
