Hi everyone,
I have a Github repo where there are a few markdowns that I want to deploy as static sites on GitHub Pages using Hugo. I have gone through Host on GitHub Pages | Hugo and tried to use that in Github actions however, it’s failing at the Hugo build step considering the Hugo site is not initiated.
I have made some changes to make it work but now my GitHub page shows a 404 page not found. I have set Github Pages to be deployed from Github Actions.
Can someone help me with what’s wrong here?
