Description of the problem:

Hi, I have been trying to launch my experiment in Pavlovia, but I always get an “unknown resource” error for any images or excel files… All images and Excel files are already in the resources, and I also tried to clean up and re-upload the whole new experiment. Could I get some help regarding this issue?  
I’m using Psychopy v.2021.2.3.

You have an html folder.

> [@2 years old Pavlovia experiment does not sync](https://discourse.psychopy.org/t/2-years-old-pavlovia-experiment-does-not-sync/31884/6):
>
> When you look at your Gitlab you can see when the files have last been updated. I notice that your link contains an html folder. Maybe you are updating files in the experiment folder, not the html folder. If you delete the html folder locally and remove html from Experiment Settings / Online, set your experiment to inactive then sync and reactivate, you should have it pointing at the experiment folder itself.

Experiment Settings / Online / Output path should be blank
