Hello there,
I'm working on posting my xaringan slides on my blogdown: http://insidethetv.rbind.io/
I've followed @apreshill 's instructions here
Specifically, I've done the following steps successfully:
- Go to your blogdown project’s root directory and create a new folder called
R
- In that
R/ directory, create a new R script called build.R that contains 1 line of code that reads: blogdown::build_dir('static')
- Add and save Rmd file(s) to your blogdown project in the
static/ directory.
- In fact, you can add Rmd files within sub-directories such as
static/slides/ , static/pdf/ , and/or static/html/
- Serve your site
I've saved my slides in static/slides and have served the site without any error. However, if you take a look at my site I don't have a section for talks because I've disabled it a long time ago. So, I don't remember how to enable it again! 
Furthermore, related to this question is how do I display the slides in the talks section? Or if there is an easier way, please let me know! I'm totally lost
Thanks
