not meant to be forked?

hullo.

this is quite a newbie problem, pardon me... but:

i understand i can “override” many of the files to customize the theme to my liking, but is it not meant to be completely forked? I’m running into some errors with just a clean fork (something to do with the feed_meta in head.html)... is there some hidden magics happening between the original repo and jekyll?..

if so, maybe can add a giant disclaimer, DO NOT FORK? haha.

Hi,
There is no limitation to forking this repository.
What exactly is the error that you're encountering?

oh bummer, then i guess it’s just me.

Liquid syntax error (/tmp/jekyll-remote-theme-20220110-7-bj1qhr/_includes/head.html line 7): Unknown tag 'feed_meta' included

That error means you have not included jekyll-feed under plugins: in your config file.

ohhhhh snap! I thought the original config file was like the default values, and then my own config would go on top of that. Okay, I now understand, thanks!
