Hi!
For a year or so I have worked on my site locally and used GitHub Desktop to push to Neocities with mostly no issues. I got a new computer, downloaded and synced the repository of my site to GitHub Desktop, and I’m having trouble getting GitHub Desktop to push site to Neocities like it did on my old computer. I’m missing a step here.
GitHub repository has the Neocities API token as a repository secret, just double-checked that. Is there something else I need to do in the Desktop app? I’m running LinuxMint (for the first time) in case that’s relevant.
Any help is very much appreciated. I moved from a teeny MacBook Air to a 15.6 wide laptop and I can’t wait to get back into some site meddling with all this new space!
how were you doing that, with github actions? can you check if your github repo is updating with each push and that the action is running each time?
Yes! Actions and then secrets. Attaching a screenshots and here’s the repo if that helps (it did update to my repo, but did not push the change to Neocities even with a correct API key)
the action is failing and im not sure why. im gonna try this on my end and see of the same error occurs
AHA
jpeg isnt allowed on nepcities
wwaaaiit no it is allowed
uh im out of ideas, sorry
I’m not familiar with deploying to Neocities, but it appears as though you’ve got an HEIC file type but they are not allowed by Neocities. That might be it?
They were there from my old computer and didn’t cause issues with deployment when uploaded - some files just didn’t upload to neocities, but I could still make and edit webpages and push them to neocities.
Maybe something happened syncing the files on this computer that made it grumpy about .heic files, but I’m not getting error message for the edits I did today, the first since I tried on my new computer (just switching words out in index.html). Thanks so much for you and @Tofutush for taking a look at it! I suspect there’s a GitHub Desktop setting or maybe I need to clean up some unsupported files.
