Hey, congrats on your new site 👏 ...You still have some leftovers from the template you used: https://github.com/CobaltIII/CobaltIII.github.io/blob/main/_config.yml#L8 😉

Hey Cesar, I'm really sorry for using your site as a template without your permission. The problem was that I really wanted to implement my site using this template https://canro91.github.io but the blogs page wasn't loading (and me being a total newbie to frontend) could not for the life of me solve it. That's why I decided to find work arounds from the top repos who forked it and I found yours. I'm really sorry for not asking you first (I also didn't know how to host a site through github pages when it's a fork, again, I should've looked into that a bit more).

Is there any way I could provide you credit now, I've added your name to the sidebar if you wanna check it out. I again apologize for not asking first, I'm really sorry-

You don't have to be sorry. It's OK, I just noticed your site on my analytics, I got it as a referer to my 404 page. I also used a template to generate my site. 😄

the blogs page wasn't loading (and me being a total newbie to frontend) could not for the life of me solve it.

The original template (Hyde) doesn't have a blog page, it displays all the posts on the homepage. That was something I had to hack on my own site. That was something I probably copied from https://github.com/fongandrew/hydeout The original project seems dormant or inactive.

Is there any way I could provide you credit now, I've added your name to the sidebar if you wanna check it out.

You don't have to. Feel free to remove my name from there.

As I said, I just noticed your site on my analytics and took a look at it and found the url to mine on your _config.xml Hey great effect on the side bar to display your name, by the way.

Hey @CobaltIII I'd recommend you to:

  1. https://github.com/CobaltIII/CobaltIII.github.io/blob/main/_config.yml#L8 Change it to yours
  2. https://github.com/CobaltIII/CobaltIII.github.io/blob/main/_includes/head.html#L36 Remove it, otherwise probably your visitors will count as mine on my analytics...Or if you want to add analytics (and the same service I use), you could create your own account here https://www.goatcounter.com/, follow the instructions, and change the script tag to point to your site, not mine.

Again, it's OK and I'd recommend you to take a look at those 2 points👍 Congrats on your site, again!
