It worked! Wow. Thank you so much for these videos! It's the most comprehensive guide to setting up a Hugo website there is and I'm so glad I found your channel!
I had not thought of looking at netlify but will now. Particularly liked your bit on git modules. Another gap you fill in with a sound introduction to git and version control
thank you Chris for this video... it helped a a lot ...thats what i want: set up a blog from "vue" using cosmic js….but first i need to understand netlify…...good job...simple understandable words, clear english and empathic
Thank you for the video Chris it was very helpful to get me going and getting my site Live. Keep up the good work and looking forward to seeing more videos from you.
Thanks for this. I still have to put something meaningful in my GitHub repos but at least I have a halfway house and won't be running straight to Wix to build a website.
Hi Chris, Thank you for the great screencast and intro to GitHub Netlify. I have a question. Are you familiar with the package Distill for R Markdown to build websites? I have some questions: What if I am running some heavy R code for some data analysis in one R Markdown and wish to include this or at least show the code and the output from that code in another R Markdown that I will publish as a website using the Distill package for R Markdown. Can I do this? - all to reduce the size of the GitHub repo that is published via Netlify? Maybe you can make a screencast/video about this ;) All the best, Kamau
i have a problem in the step here 8:50 -- the theme i chose is from a user using gitLAB and not github.. so when i put their link to the .gitmodules file and then push it it doesnt upload the theme/ folders with the link to the main theme's repo :-(
The videos are very helpful. Thanks for sharing. I have one question, How do I always have latest version of theme, but also keep my changed stuff in theme?
i added and edited the .gitmodules part but the themes folder is still not visible on my repo.... Also, there are multiple folders not present on the repo idk why. Any help? Thanks in advance
Hi Chris, great videos. Were you able to get this casper two theme working with Disqus for comments? It looks like the theme is no longer supported. No commits made for a long time, many PRs opened without answers or merges, many issues reported, also without answers or fixes. :/
Hi Chris, my pictures aren't showing up on my live netlify website but do show up when I run it on a local server. I think this must be to do with having to manually add the themes folder to git and directing to the developers theme, my images are stored in themes/forty/static/img (like yours but a different theme). Do you know what could be causing this?
Hi Chris, thanks for the tutorial. Used git add submodule to access the theme. All my content loads, but the git submodule is marked "dirty" in GitHub Desktop and I can't change the background color. Any help from you or comments appreciated, thanks!
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial! However, I am getting one issue after pushing the .gitmodule when I click on the themes folder on my Github where it shows a symlink, I get an error 404. Any thoughts on that? Thanks again and keep rocking!
Hello, I have my domain .me with namecheap but i don't know anything about code in websites, i will use a hosting with firebase, do you know how i can use wordpress or another tool for creates website without code?
I am not sure firebase can support wordpress but if you don't want to worry about coding I suggest squarespace. (not sponsored, I just use them and like their simplicity) I also have used Wix, but I do not like their UI or Clunkiness.
Thanks a lot, your Videos are really helpful. I have a question, I followed all the steps described in your Video. Howevere, after connecting and deploying the Website on netlify the content is shown but without ány theme (just with the big github cat in the middle). Locally everything works just fine. Any idea what I did wrong? (the theme is linked in github with this link to the original theme site just like you explained)
When I try to deploy with Netlify I'm getting this error - Error running command: Build script returned non-zero exit code: 255. Any leads on how to fix this?
That is how git modules work inherently. Check out this post. stackoverflow.com/questions/7238426/understanding-git-submodule-and-freezing-it-at-a-specific-commit-hash-or-versi
Today somewhat touch command and doing manually didn't work for me, instead I used "git submodule add github.com/directoryofthethemeyourwant" inside your theme folder and it worked. After many headaches I finally have a hugo site running on netlify
I have the problem just like it is shown in 15:58 how can I fix that page? And thanks again Tyrell Wellick you're an amazing teacher, everything fits well in my mind!
best was about why to hide the code when they can see front end :):):) because now your code and work are worth f all and you building developing for months getting f all for it? when i see you ppl expecting to get paid after you share everything for free i feel normal
James Harper in my last video I walked through this but the short of it is that Hugo takes your content and your theme and compiles a website. This will get out putted to a folder called public. Instead of generating all of the files and having to delete them so they don’t get stuck in your folder and for live updates Hugo has the ability to start a server on your local computer and then rebuild when it detects changes to the files. This is what Hugo server does

You want to use your override folder in your host site and not overwrite any of the theme code.
i added and edited the .gitmodules part but the themes folder is still not visible on my repo.... Also, there are multiple folders not present on the repo idk why. Any help? Thanks in advance
actual tutorial starts at 01:30
Hi Chris, great videos. Were you able to get this casper two theme working with Disqus for comments? It looks like the theme is no longer supported. No commits made for a long time, many PRs opened without answers or merges, many issues reported, also without answers or fixes. :/
Is it possible to deploy from wordpress to github and then to Netlify? Can you do a step by step video like the one shown here?
Nice!!!!
... remember to change the baseUrl to whatever Netlify assigns to your site after deployment: otherwise your theme won't be loaded for all pages.

Yes you need to add a gitmodules inside of your project. This happened to me a lot! Very frustrating. Let me know if that helped!
Does netify have a database and mysqli? I don't think it has unlimited disk space and bandwidth correct?
I have a problem with a gitmodules 😫
What issue are you having?
Hi Chris, thanks for the tutorial. Used git add submodule to access the theme. All my content loads, but the git submodule is marked "dirty" in GitHub Desktop and I can't change the background color. Any help from you or comments appreciated, thanks!
Can you send me a link to this?
@@ChrisStayte Sure thing! github.com/AnEconomicTimeWaster/MolHill
@@ChrisStayte It looks like the themes folder is duplicated for some reason, looking into it

Do you have a link to your repository I can get?

Do you have a copy of your repository on github you can link me?
Sure, this is the github rep: github.com/ancahar/Ancaha_Testing_V3
Hey Chris! Do you know how to deploy this with Travis CI?
what is primary name server and secondary name server for github??
When I try to deploy with Netlify I'm getting this error - Error running command: Build script returned non-zero exit code: 255. Any leads on how to fix this?
Do you have the hugo version setup?
Using the .gitmodules file, how would you locked into a specific theme version and not always be in sync with the latest version?
That is how git modules work inherently. Check out this post. stackoverflow.com/questions/7238426/understanding-git-submodule-and-freezing-it-at-a-specific-commit-hash-or-versi

wait did u made a new file manually called what? and you added the whole sentence "git submodule add [link]" ????
when i am uploading the .gitmodules on github, no themes folder is generating...what to do?
Do you have a link to your repository?
How this is different from just using ghPages?
I have the problem just like it is shown in 15:58 how can I fix that page? And thanks again Tyrell Wellick you're an amazing teacher, everything fits well in my mind!
Hi mate, i experienced the same problem. Did you solve yours?
it's not showing up files on my github desktop
What do you mean?
12:33 I like "very free"... :D
I like that part too!!! hahaha
If i had a form i my website and user fills it then what is the way to retrieve the given data ? and thanks in advance :)
Are you hosting with netlify?
@@ChrisStayte No
Ты красивый!
I sent you an email. I am having some errors. If you could get back that would be great!
best was about why to hide the code when they can see front end :):):) because now your code and work are worth f all and you building developing for months getting f all for it? when i see you ppl expecting to get paid after you share everything for free i feel normal
Why do you type in hugo server?! what is that about?
James Harper in my last video I walked through this but the short of it is that Hugo takes your content and your theme and compiles a website. This will get out putted to a folder called public. Instead of generating all of the files and having to delete them so they don’t get stuck in your folder and for live updates Hugo has the ability to start a server on your local computer and then rebuild when it detects changes to the files. This is what Hugo server does
I FUCKING HATE GITHUB IT IS SO COMPLICATED
James Harper I can come out with a video extensively going through it.
