Editing the _config.yml for github pages

[royben]

Hi there,

I'm using the Cayman theme for my github page. Trying to edit the _config.yml file colors, but it doesn't seem to take effect.

Am I missing something ?

Here is my config file, Thanks!

Hi @royben,

The _config.yml filename is incorrect, it should be config.yml. Which leads me to my next question...

Are you using Jekyll or Hugo? Because this theme is for Hugo

[royben]

Sorry, I probably made several mistakes just by ignorance.. Anyway, I have manages to modify my GitHub page theme by overriding some scss file.

Thanks again :)

And yes, it's Jekyll, but I don't really know the difference..

[zwbetz-gh]

Hugo and Jekyll are both static site generators, but that is about all they have in common.

Please refer to the Jekyll docs and the Jekyll Cayman Theme docs for more info.

Good luck. Am closing this issue.
