Why is logo not rendered in bootstrap navbar dropdown item - linked page?

I am using Flask framework. I have few tabs (Home, About, Services and Contact) in my bootstrap navbar.

Services tab is a dropdown Tab which has a dropdown item called profile and it is linked to Profile.html template

All the templates (html files) inherits from base.html.

except Services >> Profile page, all the other pages are rendering logo as per the base.html. Logo is not getting rendered in Services >> Profile page as shown below: Logo not rendered

Logo getting rendered in other pages logo rendered well

I would like logo to be rendered in Services >> Profile page as well like all other pages (home, about and contact. Please help me resolve the issue

Solution

  • You have a direct link to the image source, so the Profile page is trying to find logo1.png in /Services/static/images/ rather than just static/images/ because of the routing as /Services/Profile.

    You can use url_for to get the logo image, regardless of the page's location relative to the static folder, like you did with the stylesheet. It would look like this:

    <img src="{{ url_for('static', filename='/images/logo1.png') }}" alt="logo">
