Lightline Theme is not working on Neovim

[ghost]

After installing lightline and your theme i was setting this in my ~/.config/nvim/init.vi file:

" theme settings 
set background=dark
colorscheme edge

" lightline settings
let g:lightline = {}
let g:lightline.colorscheme = 'edge'

But the result looks like this:

Any help would be appreciated! I really like this theme. Thanks, in advice.

I'm using neovim nightly build, but I can't reproduce this in my neovim with lightline.

Please make sure you have installed lightline correctly, try buildin theme and see if it works:

let g:lightline = {
      \ 'colorscheme': 'wombat',
      \ }

If the buildin theme works but this theme still doesn't work, maybe you can consider sharing your vimrc.

Thanks for quick response!

I think lightline is installed correctly. The wombat theme (an all other themes provided by lightline are also working properly).

I installed your theme and lightline via vimplug. Here is my init.vim:
