Do you get an error message?

Another question: you have several _config-files. Where do you start jekyll? In your base directory (which does not contain any posts) or in the subdirectory docs or in test?

  1. You have a bunch of the theme’s test files still in your repo. Take a look at the instructions here under remove the unnecessary for more details.
  2. You don’t have any posts in your repo.

Yes that was the problem,
I noticed after looking through the config file that doc/ was listed under “exclude”.
I added all my posts under doc/_posts which is obviously wrong.
Thanks so much for all the help!

I upload it straight to github and my changes automatically apply, no need to rebuild site or start Jekyll.
Thank you!
