hi, I have adapted this design to the needs of my web site. I am pretty happy with it, although did not expect that the design was not fully linked.
I have a specific problem that I do not know how to solve though:
when I run the website locally (using jekyll serve), the carousel of images works just fine. However, when I upload the result on github pages, I only see the images separated, no carrousel.
The html code comes directly from your template, i copy it below. Also, the code is identical online and locally.
Hello. I have just purchased your theme and i was wondering how does index.html choose the size and display of the images? When I run the theme locally all the image stack left, how can I fix this?
Warm regards, Adam
Hello! Every time I run jekyll serve my portfolio.html is wiped clean. How can I turn this feature off? It renders all images to be displayed non-existent therefore making drava un-usable. Thanks
Hello, Except from pictures, does this theme support videos too?
Thank you, Vasia
However, the theme doesn’t display properly.
When I run jekyll serve locally it displays normally in localhost.
Please help.
Thanks, Alex
I’m hosting this theme on Github Pages. However, it is not rendering correctly. And Navigating Links point to 404 errors.
When I run the site locally everything seems fine. Here is the URL: https://builtbyjordan.github.io/mysite/index.htmlOk so no 404s anymore but still the images for portfolio on the home page are not showing as a masonry grid they are almost alined vertically. Is this theme still supported?
Seems like all things Javascript are not working properly. Am I doing something wrong? .
Please build the site locally before uploading.
Thanks for your reply! If you mean by using jekyll serve I’ve done that before pushing to Github. I’ve followed your documentation that came with the download. On the localhost 4000 the site shows up fine. I do not alter any of the original files from the download I commit and push everything to my repo and for some reason the Javascript is not loading. I’ve tried other themes that have JavaScript and they upload to Github pages just fine and are fully functional. Is there anything I’m missing or need to do?
Here is the the link to my repo: https://github.com/builtbyjordan/mysite that contains the Drava Theme if needed. Thanks again.
I’ve since requested a refund so the above links will no longer be active as I’m going to delete the repo and move on.
I would like a refund. You have given 0 support. And your Theme is not functional.
Hi: I am trying to make Drava multilingual using this post: https://www.sylvaindurand.org/making-jekyll-multilingual/. I am also following this code: https://github.com/sylvaindurand/jekyll-multilingual/commit/111495e91e8986db21368e54a42188cdbbc44b6f
I would very much appreciate some guidance about it. I could share my files on GitHub where I was trying unsuccessfully to make it. Thanks for your help.
Just in case ¡, my purchase code is: 4fbcf68c-05ea-401e-8388-639aea100222.
Best regards Rafael
The template _config.yml has a twitter_username variable, but it isn’t used—even when the variable is set the site footer still just points to twitter.com.
This is how to add the built-in config username to every footer by editing footer.html:
{% if site.twitter_username != nil %}
<li>
<a href='http://twitter.com/{{ site.twitter_username }}'>
<i class='fa fa-twitter'></i>
</a>
</li>
{% endif %}
Blog Single ( _layouts/post.html ) has an error – it includes a footer, so the page ends up with two different footers. Deleting the final div blocked fixed it.
The site title banner in header.html goes to href='index.html'—that means clicking on the title from the blog submenu just stays in the blog. Fix with: href='{{site.url}}/index.html'
This is more a suggestion than a requested fix: the footer.html copyright is static, set to 2014. By default the template should probably make the copyright date dynamic on build so that the copyright updates whenever you rebuild the site with Jekyll, like this:
<p class="copyright">©{{ 'now' | date: "%Y" }} {{site.title}}. All rights reserved.</p>
The installation instructions need an update and config.yml needs to be updated.
Following the current instructions will install jekyll 3.5+. Running jekyll serve gives a warning:
$ jekyll serve
Configuration file: /Users/user/git/mysite.com/_config.yml
Deprecation: You appear to have pagination turned on, but you haven't included the `jekyll-paginate` gem. Ensure you have `plugins: [jekyll-paginate]` in your configuration file.

done in 2.988 seconds.
This is because the default blog page includes a paginator that is no longer in Jekyll 3 by default—if you don’t fix the warning then template blog pagination is broken out-of-the-box.
To fix, add this line to config.yml:
plugins: [jekyll-paginate]
...or a user could add it to their Gemfile—although it should be included in the purchased template by default.
Hi can you check my site. The main page seems not correct. It host on GitHub pages. My site is http://sephi.me . Source Code is https://github.com/sk-9/sk-9.github.io
Hi! I’m very much interested in your Drava theme. Quick question: does it come with a search option (e.g., via RSS)?
Thanks for your time.
I’m using Github Pages to host my site, and was running into errors with lib.js missing from /javascripts folder. I manually added lib.js from a local /_site/javascripts directory into javascripts folder to fix this.
Is there a better solution?
So I went through Jekyll which ultimately linked me to github but it just isn’t coming together. Is there a version for wordpress at all? It may be my experience but I can’t seem to make sense of it all. Thank you
Sorry, there is no WordPress version of this theme. Jekyll is a static website generator, for how to use it, you can refer to this quick start guide http://jekyllrb.com/docs/quickstart/
Does this work with blogger? I’m having a long time locating the file containing the htmls of the template. Thank you
It is a Jekyll theme, so I don’t think it works with blogger. You can generate HTML files by following the instruction on site http://jekyllrb.com/.
Awesome thank you so much i’ll give it a go hopefully it works out as I’m using it for a registered domain . But i’ll be sure to ask questions if anything. Thanks again
You can change that in file data/nav.yml.
No updates since 2015?
There will be an update if necessary, the item is continuously supported.
Hey I’m having a problem which is that when I look at the theme locally, it’s perfectly fine. When I look at it up on a server (github pages), it’s all messed up. Here’s a link to two pictures to show you: http://imgur.com/a/EMDbS
Hi, do you check the inspector errors?
Hi. I just bought and installed your theme. Unfortunately it is filled with javascript errors:
http://madsbuch.com/life/ hosted on https://github.com/madsbuch/lifeCan you provide a bug fix?
Hi, I have checked your site and didn’t find the errors, guess you have solved the problem.
