Screenshot (18)

When I type in hugo server on a fresh install this is what I see.

Steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Type in command line Hugo new site dot-theme
  2. Opened dot-theme directory
  3. Open theme folder which was empty
  4. Download the zip file by using the following link https://github.com/themefisher/dot-hugo-documentation-theme/archive/master.zip
  5. Unzipped file and renamed it dot.
  6. Move dot folder into my theme folder.
  7. Added the line theme = "dot" to the config.toml
  8. Typed in the command line hugo server
  9. Opened the browser and took the screenshot above.

Can you let me know what I am doing wrong?

In dot folder, you will find a folder called exampleSite. open this folder and copy everything, then go back to your root folder that you created dot-theme. paste everything in dot-theme folder. it will ask for file replacement. make everything replace. then again run hugo server command, it will work. for more information check this video documentation
