Basically Basic can now be installed remotely for use on GitHub Pages!
The days of having to forking this repo and manually manage updates are over. Simply install the jekyll-remote-theme plugin by doing the following and away you go.
If you’ve previously forked this repo start by removing _layouts
, _includes
, _sass
, assets/javascripts
, and assets/stylesheets
. Be sure to leave any files that you’ve customized so they override the versions bundled in the theme.
In your Gemfile
replace gem "jekyll"
with the following:
gem "github-pages", group: :jekyll_plugins
gem "jekyll-remote-theme"
Run bundle update
and verify that all gems install properly.
Add remote_theme: "mmistakes/jekyll-theme-basically-basic"
to your _config.yml
file.
Then add jekyll-remote-theme
to the plugins
(previously gems) array in your _config.yml
file like so:
plugins:
- jekyll-remote-theme
