@zekeriyasari you will need to rename the subfolder to "paper"

[matbesancon]

It seems like you modified the template a lot. Could you keep the paper structure as-is? The compilation phase relies on it. Also, https://github.com/zekeriyasari/Causal.jl/blob/juliacon/paper/paper.yml#L21 it seems like you are using a different file, Ref.bib, and not refs.bib

@matbesancon I revised the paper files. It has been 13 minutes and no error has been thrown yet. I think the errors are fixed now.

[matbesancon]

hi @arfon, I'm not sure what the error can be here

[arfon]

@matbesancon - I think the fact that there is a paper.md and paper.tex is confusing Whedon. Can you delete the paper.md file and try again?

[matbesancon]

Thanks! @zekeriyasari sorry we experienced some delays on the editorial side, could you update the repo to remove the paper.md and see whether it builds
