I tried making a GH-Page for my AngularJS project http://cmittle.github.io/ptcalc1/, from my repo https://github.com/cmittle/ptcalc1. When I load the GH-Page I see the index.html. The header and footers are stored in separate html files and do not load. I've used the ng-view AngularJS directive to load the content of the tabs from other html files and the url changes accordingly, but the html pages do not load.
The code works when launched from either Brackets or Netbeans.
It doesn't look like you have a gh-pages branch for that repo.
Go to the settings tab in that repo, then options, and click 'Launch automatic page generator'. Alternatively, you can create the gh-page yourself, just read read the docs on how to do so.

Whilst using Github Pages I can't get Jekyll to render a contact page.
I am using the following template: https://github.com/antonostrovsky/tale
If I clone the template into a local repo and run bundle exec jekyll serve I get a page with a Contact link that I can successfully follow. The generated _site folder contains a subfolder 'contact' with index.html within it.
I then create an empty repository (https://github.com/antonostrovsky/test_site) at Github and specify this template in _config.yml:
remote_theme: antonostrovsky/tale
The template is successfully rendered, I can see the template on the index page (https://antonostrovsky.github.io/test_site/), and the Contact link leads to nowhere, resulting in "Not Found" error.
Can anyone please help me understand how I can troubleshoot this? Does Jekyll have any debug output that could be placed on a github page?
Does anyone know what could be going wrong?
Thank you in advance
I made a diff between your repo and the template repo and noticed that at some stage you deleted the baseurl property in the _config.yml file.
Forking your repo and re-adding baseurl: "/tale" to the _config.yml file fixes the contact page link for me.
UPDATE:
While the above gets the page working as a fork it doesn't work as a remote template which is what the asker needs.
The test_site has the theme and it builds, however it has no content. There are no pages in test_site repo.
If you copy your contact.md page from the theme template repo into pages/contact.md in the test site repo and then rebuild then your link should now work.
Note: Neither the file nor folder can start with an _ in the test-site repo because it will get skipped over by jekyll.
Tip: Open the dev console and disable page caching then reload to see your changes on github faster. It also helps to add change some page content so that you know you're seeing the most recent version.
To add to the accepted answer and explain this strange behaviour. Pages from the remote theme are NOT included by design:
Custom theme files can be placed in:
assets/allposts.html
with the front matter
---
permalink: allposts.html
---
which results in the
_site/allposts.html
file being generated.

I'm running Jekyll 4.0.0 and Bundler version 1.17.2. As this time of posting, it is the latest version of both Jekyll and Bundler.
I have a template called default, which I use to standardize the appearance of navbar, footer, and location of content being displayed.
The directory structure of my website is as follows:
_data: a folder of yml data files for listings of open source projects I worked on
_includes: a folder containing footer and navbar html files
_layouts: a folder containing liquid templated layout files. This is where "default.html" layout file is located.
_posts: a directory of blog posts that I want rendered by Jekyll
CNAME img: image files index.html credits.html
lib: a directory that hosts all of my CSS, fonts, JavaScript files
logo.ico
opensource: a folder containing layouts related to open source
What I'm having trouble with is adding the credits.html page. Using index.html as a template (since index.html renders perfectly), I have the following meta data pasted at the top of credits.html:
---
title: <my name>
layout: default
description: <my description>
---
Under that are all the HTML related to the contents section of the page. When I test my website locally and on github pages, I noticed Jekyll gives me a 404 not found error. I know this is not true because the moment I put credits.html inside another folder (ie: /credits/credits.html) the page renders fine with the url localhost:4000/credits/credits.
I do have permalink set as "pretty" for the entire static website.
Does anyone know why I can't seem to render the credits page? The index page seems to work just fine. I've tried digging through the documentation, but I can't seem to figure out what is affecting that one page.
** EDIT **
I discovered that if I go to localhost:4000/credits/, the page renders perfectly. This is definitely a permalink issue. Can someone point me in the right direction of how I can fix this issue?
I solved the issue!
The reason is because I had permalink enabled in the global configuration file "_config.yml". Inside that file, I had permalink: pretty set. This is why localhost:4000/credits/ worked but not localhost:4000/credits.html.
To resolve this issue, I removed that setting from the global config file. I also realized at the same time that permalink was not necessary for my use case.
For anyone who is in this situation but requires permalink for other sections of your website, set permalink per template file via front matter instead.
I have a page called en.md and another page called ko.md in a directory. Both files have custom-set permalinks, so en.md and ko.md respectively are not a part of the page URL. Regardless of this setting, to move from en.md to ko.md in normal HTML, all I would need to do is this :
Move to File KO
However, this doesn't seem to work in Jekyll; this link sends me straight to URL .../ko.md, where there is no file (because of that permalink setting), rendering my link unusable. Is there a way to link to a specific file instead of just permalinks in Jekyll-processed HTML? Thank you!
I just started learning MEAN JS and I am trying to find the html file for the main page. However I only see home.client.view.html and header.clinet.view.html in the view folder.
From what I know is, usually there is a main html which holds all the information of the home page, and we can add links of CSS files and JS files in the main html file.
How can I add links of extra CSS files and JS files in MEAN JS since i cannot find the main html file?
The MEANJS top level page is located under server/app/views/layout.server.view.html and is where you set header meta tags. Most everthing else on the page is programmatically inserted by angular, such as links to CSS files and Javascript files.
Any of the CSS or Javascripts files under your server/public directly are automagically added to the page. If you wish to add other, third-party scripts or stylesheets, you do so by editing your server configuration file, located at config/env/all.js.
So for example, to add the angular version of the tinymce editor to your MEANJS site, you'd edit config/env/all.js by adding CSS to module.exports.assets.lib.css and references to the tinymce editor and its angular wrapper to module.exports.assets.lib.js.
You will need to restart your server (via the 'grunt' command) if you change this file while the server is running.
UPDATE
Using mean-cli#0.6.1 to scaffold a new mean project, the default "top-level" page is located under packages/custom/meanStarter/public/views/system where you will find two files:
header.html - which describes the layout of the default navbar
index.html - which lays out the content of the default page
Now, having said that, it should be noted that the "proper" way of configuring a mean server to display your own top-level homepage is to create a new mean package.
See the docs for further information.
I have set up my professional website/homepage using Github Pages. I know if this was just HTML being served up from somewhere, my downloadable file would need to be in the directory of my .html file, and then I could reference it in the .html file and link it up. However, since this is served by Github through repository, I am unsure on how to do this.
Do I put my downloadable file in my repo under version control like the rest of the project?
If so, what path do I use in the .html file?
Also, I am aware that the Automatic Page Generator makes it possible to hardly touch the HTML, but it seems pretty restrictive as far as customizing where links and other content appears on your page...
You could just link it normally in your html. Commit it to your repository and have users right click to save.
I just tried this on one of my repositories where I put a link to my CSS file.
style.css
I was able to right click the link and download the file.
If you wanted to create a download from the root you would do:
Download File
I'm pushing my repositories manually instead of using the Automatic Page Generator. The steps are pretty straight forward Creating Project Pages Manually - GitHub Help
Since it is done in GitHub pages. It can also be done like this (in markdown fashion): [download]({{ site.baseurl }}{% link file.txt %}). It has the advantage to work locally without pushing the file to the repo.
