gradfolio's Issues

Social media icons are not showing up

Hello. Social media icons are not showing up, gradfolio version is v1.3.

Gemfile

The repository does not have any Gemfile, While trying to build it locally it shows some error! Is there is any solution to build it locally?

Gemfile is missing

Hi there,

to provide the correct jekyll version and additional ruby packages, a Gemfile would be useful here.

Tanks,
Martin

Image and math embedding broken

I don't see the embedded image on any of the example project pages, and the math code is not rendering either.

Syntax highlighting does not work

The markdown templates in the projects folder mention syntax highlighting, but no scss styles are provided for it. I got it to work by following this post and including the linked styles from https://github.com/yaitloutou/sass-code-highlight in main.scss. That should take care of it.

[blog page] wrong link on "1" pagination button

index.html

link goes to "baseurl" instead of "baseurl/blog

<a href="{{site.baseurl}}/">{{ page }}</a>
should be replaced with
<a href="{{site.baseurl}}/blog">{{ page }}</a>

No theming after changing baseurl

Hello. After changing baseurl: /gradfolio #name of GitHub repository to baseurl: /, theme is not appearing.

favicon not showing when deployed on github

this is probably a long shot, but I couldn't get my own favicons to work. they work locally

but once deployed on github they dont

would you have any hints as to why that is? the project is this one:
https://github.com/evanthebouncy/evanthebouncy.github.io

it is rendered at this url:
https://evanthebouncy.github.io/

thanks!!

btw gradfolio is the cleanest academic template I've found after browsing through all of them, the simplicity is the best!

Mobile friendly navigation

Hi Jitin,
I really like how gradfolio is built.

It would be nice to have more mobile-friendly navigation. Current navigation is responsive, but it would be a nice feature to implement it using hamburger menu or similar feature like that.

Error while execution

I really like the template and wish to use it as my portfolio template. As mentioned in the previous closed issue, I have removed the plugin jekyll-target-blank. I still get the following error

Any help would be appreciated.

Page Not Rendering after Install

So sorry about this. I should have added clearer instructions!

This is happening because of the url field in the _config.yml file. In the _config.yml file, the baseurl will be "/" followed by the name of your repo. (like /repo_name). The url field should be used in the case of custom domains only. So you should leave it only as "" if you are using the username.github.io domain. (Something like this)

Also, when you change the baseurl to /repo_name, when you run jekyll serve --incremental --trace, the localhost URL will be something like http://127.0.0.1:4000/repo_name

Hello jitinnair1,

Thank you for creating this portfolio. I would like to use my unrulybeep.github.io url. I clicked the "Use this Template" button, as the README.md instructions state, but I am only able to render basic text. The project page nor any of the assets render. I am thinking it may have something to do with baseurl as you wrote in this comment to another user. I have the baseurl set to /unrulybeep.github.io. Is this an incorrect way to format the baseurl? If that appears right to you, would you be willing to suggest another way for me to resolve my problem?
