I’m a pretty inexperienced programmer but I recently made my first github pages. In order to file my posts I set up multiple pages by creating new markdown files such as project1.md with yaml frontmatter(with the triple dashes ofc):
layout: page
title: “project1”
permalink: /project1/
This worked for creating additional pages that I could link to and reach from my main page but the theme defined in the auto-generated _config.yml file wouldn’t appear for those pages.
I tried alternate configurations of the frontmatter like
layout: page
title: “project1”
permalink: /project1/
theme: jekyll-theme-minimal
or the same as above but swapping page for default, to no avail.
What am I missing? How can I get the theme to propagate to sub-pages?
