无法在GitHub页面中使用Jekyll主题的“页面”和“发布”布局？

Question

I started experimenting with GitHub pages and Jekyll.

You can find my repository here:

https://github.com/braek/braek.github.io

And the website you can find here:

http://www.braek.be

I created a post and configured "page" as layout, but the page is not rendered in the Cayman theme that I selected in the GitHub pages settings.

The same goes for a post with layout set to "post".

Is this normal? Do I need to add these templates myself in the _layouts directory?

Kind regards, B.

Answer 1

The Cayman theme does not have a page layout. It only has a default layout.

You have to build the page layout yourself .

The instructions on how to create new layouts & modify the default one are in the repository of the Cayman theme, copied below for simplicity:

Layouts

If you'd like to change the theme's HTML layout:

1. Copy the original template from the theme's repository
   ( Pro-tip: click "raw" to make copying easier )
2. Create a file called /_layouts/default.html in your site
3. Paste the default layout content copied in the first step
4. Customize the layout as you'd like
