Hi, I have been trying to get a basic theme look (which I will customize later) on github pages. The theme I want: hugo-PaperMod When I do hugo server it gives me a localhost link which upon clicking gets me to the theme. it works it builds. however, it doesn’t work on the github pages website I…

1) Where is the GitHub Pages workflow file? 2) You should have one configuration file, not three: [image] 3) Why do you have a hugo-PaperMod directory in the root of your project? Delete it. [image]

oh. I meant to clone it into the themes folder. I think i managed to do it both places. And I initially had hugo.toml but it didn’t work so i kept adding and deleting to see which one would work.

Consolidate your config into the hugo.toml file. You also don’t have a GitHub Pages workflow file. Follow the directions: https://gohugo.io/hosting-and-deployment/hosting-on-github/

I suspect you missed steps 3 and 4 here: https://gohugo.io/hosting-and-deployment/hosting-on-github/#procedure Not to put too sharp an edge on this, but it appears you went through this exercise in a hurry without paying attention to details.

My apologies. I had been going through multiple solutions online which said to switch to branch control and such. Could you tell me why removing the hugo_build.lock helped load the website?
