Required Manual Steps
Step 1: Enable GitHub Pages
- Go to your repository: https://github.com/Shiki0138/leadfive
- Click on Settings tab
- Scroll down to Pages section in the left sidebar
- Under “Source”, select GitHub Actions
- Save the settings
Step 2: Repository Name Considerations
Current setup assumes repository name is “leadfive” based on:
baseurl: "/leadfive"
- Repository URL structure
If your repository has a different name:
- Update
_config.yml
baseurl to match your repository name - Update
_config_production.yml
baseurl accordingly - Commit and push changes
Step 3: Verify Deployment
After enabling GitHub Pages:
- Check the Actions tab for deployment progress
- Look for “Deploy Jekyll to GitHub Pages” workflow
- Once successful, site will be available at:
- https://shiki0138.github.io/leadfive (if repo name is “leadfive”)
- https://shiki0138.github.io/[your-repo-name] (if different)
Build Status
