Note to future me: when Publii refuses to complete syncing this may help — Website not syncing completely - Publii Forum:
remove file files.publii.json from your server and the sync website again (it will upload all files of your website).
It definitely worked today. Whew!
Pratik Had never heard of Publii. Looks interesting and similar to Blot, I guess.
Miraz Jordan @pratik I use it for a community news site I run. Mostly it works well enough and means I can avoid WordPress. I compose in the app on my Mac then sync to get the posts online.
