[No CLI used] In this video, I'm creating a beautiful Jekyll blog on Github Pages. In the previous videos, I have shown

2. How to host them on Github Pages using gh-pages branch.
3. How to add a custom domain or URL to the website hosted on Github.
4. How to add a subdomain to a website hosted on Github Pages.
Here is the playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playli....st?list=PLm_Qt4aKpfK
This is the 4th video showing how you can blog on Github Pages. This is fairly easy when compared to all other things I showed in my previous videos.
Blog I will be creating: http://redgadget.github.io/emerald/
Websites I referred to in the video-
Jekyll Themes: http://jekyll-themes.com
Colors: www.flatuicolorpicker.com
Repository I copied the jykyll theme files from: https://github.com/KingFelix/emerald
Thanks to: http://www.jacoporabolini.com/ for creating Emerald theme.
Key Notes:
1. If you are not able to create the blog or your blog is missing CSS files(which is pretty common), you may have to change the baseurl in _config.yml file properly.
2. If there is a CNAME file already present when you forked a repository, please delete the file or the contents inside it. Otherwise, it may redirect you to a different website.
3. Every time you make a change in the forked repository, please wait until the change shows up in the website. Jekyll takes a moment to generate static pages.
4. If there is any error in building page, Github sends a mail to the email you have used while signing up. Read it to see what went wrong.
If nothing works, comment here. I will try to fix it for you.
I will be updating more videos on how to add a comment section, google analytics, adsense and more to a Jekyll blog. Subscribe to get the updates.
