Github page using hexo, how to get my theme supported?


I want to host a simple blog on Github pages. Therefore I set up a repository and used Hexo as a compile and deployment tool.

After testing my site locally I run the following command:
hexo deploy --generate

Sadly I, just a few seconds later, get the following message from Github:

The page build failed with the following error:

The hacker theme is not currently supported on GitHub Pages. For more information, see https://help.github.com/articles/adding-a-jekyll-theme-to-your-github-pages-site.

For information on troubleshooting Jekyll see:

https://help.github.com/articles/troubleshooting-jekyll-builds

If you have any questions you can contact us by replying to this email.

How can I publish my site using the hacker theme? If this is not possible which themes are supported by Github? How do I use them with Hexo?


Solution

  • [..] I used the username.github.io repo and deployed directly to master and it works!
