Site not displaying even with example congif #29

I found this theme while working on making a personal site and started fiddling with it. When I had the example file in at first and both the local server and my custom domain were working. Them I selected some details to change, to begin customizing the theme for myself. I'm not exactly sure exactly at which commit this happened, but the commit messages reference what I changed back to the default to attempt to get things working again. I eventually just made a fresh -CONFIG.yml to see if that fixed things, and it got the local version displaying again, but not my custom domain after I pushed it to my github pages repo. I then went in an changed the url to match my domain, but still nothing on the live version.

It might be worth noting I am doing this in windows bash and I believe I have installed everything properly, but that took me a while and some weird fiddling, so it's possible I might be missing something.

Here's the repo: https://github.com/high-tech-hobo/hth_site

And here is my terminal output when I serve my site:

Hi @high-tech-hobo, sorry for the delay!

Testing it out, I can also get it working locally fine without any issues.

I think the issue with your live site comes down to how you've stated your url in the config.yml.

url: thehightechhobo.com

This is missing the start, http or https, depending on your site. Try adding one or the other and hopefully that should fix the issues!

Let me know if you need anything else!

Thanks, James
