Built, but the link to the blueprint doesn’t appear. No idea what I did wrong. I hope you’ll be able to tell me :)

Your source code looks good. We’re not building blueprints by default, that’s why the link can’t be generated as such.

If you want to make sure it’ll work on our website once published, you can edit ikiwiki.setup locally, and replace:

exclude: '(^blueprint\/.*|^promote\/slides\/.*|\/discussion\..*|\/Discussion\..*)'

with:

exclude: '(^promote\/slides\/.*|\/discussion\..*|\/Discussion\..*)'

… and the rebuild the wiki.

Don’t commit this change to ikiwiki.setup, though :)

Thanks for the patch. On the other hand, we are considering adding documentation about running hidden services in Tails and several people have been working on it, see Feature #7879. This means it is possible to run hidden services in Tails and we are considering this as a valid use case. So for me your explanation is not the good one. I’d rather say that it is complicated and not documented.
