[BUG] Blog and Tags hyperlinks are set to repo_url instead of site_url when deploying on Gitlab Pages

[Dodalpaga]

Plugin version

v2.2.11

Python version

3.12.3

Additional environment information (optional)

Platform - GitLab Pages

What happened?

All the hyperlinks of blogs/tags redirects to the file in the repo_url (which is not public). Even when i remove the repo_url and repo_name from the mkdocs.yml file it doesn't work.

What should have happened? (optional)

No response

How to reproduce the bug?

Try deploying a mkdocs page with blogging plugin on gitlab.io pages from the repo

Additional context (optional)

I can't share much information about my use case here because of my company internal policy, but i am willing to help solve this problem. Feel free to contact me

Relevant log output (optional)

Please give me an example of your mkdocs.yml file, which removes the private information. It is hard to reproduce the problem without it.

I'm using a lot of other plugins so maybe the problem comes from a conflict with other plugins...
Thanks !

[Update] It seems to work when i don't set the repo_url though
