Thank you @BillRaymond. I didn’t actually _create_ anything – I forked an existing template. I will work my way through the site you mentioned.

I think I have a plan of action though. From the git commits, it seems that this template worked in 3.x, so I can create a dev branch while I work through making it work in 4.x and do a separate 3.latest install while I work on the content. I will ask how to do this in a separate thread.

**edit** Add: and of course the separate thread already exists: [Install a specific version of jekyll](https://talk.jekyllrb.com/t/install-a-specific-version-of-jekyll/700).
