I have tried following
this Stack Overflow Question
EDIT: The issue is that I do not have the "Settings" tab!
using the instructions in
GitHub Help to get to the settings page.
I just get a 404 for the page.
Is it because my repo is public? If so, how do I delete a public repo?
This is a solution obtained using their site (not the shell).
If you want to delete a public repo from their site, you must first click on the name of the repo in your profile main page.
After that, you'll see a bar with several tabs in the top of your window ('Code, 'Issues', 'Pull request' and 'Settings' are just some of the tabs).
Click on 'Settings', as pointed out in the answer you've already seen, scroll down until you find the 'Danger zone', then 'Delete this repository'.
Are you sure you have permissions to delete that repository? Obviously you can delete only repositories that you own (either public or private).
Hope this helps
Edit
If the issue is that you don't have the 'Settings' tab, you can reach repository settings remembering that url has the form https://github.com/username/repo_name/settings .

I'm following Github's tutorial to host a Github Page. I creating the repo and set the Github Page to track my main branch and published the Page.
Github says my site should be published at http://test-blog-on-qa.com/auth0/ but the site doesn't load. As a side note: Why would Github choose that weird domain name(test-blog-on-qa)?
I've chosen a theme(Jekyll), pushed an empty commit to rebuild but nothing works. This should be very simple so I'm confused as to what could be wrong?
You are using the Github Custom Domain for your site chu4483.github.io.
Have a look at: https://github.com/jchu4483/jchu4483.github.io/blob/master/CNAME
That's why test-blog-on-qa.com is used as the domain name automatically.
I have a Github repository with an associated Github page (say, github.com/user/mypage), and I would like to include the URL to the Github page (say, user.github.io/mypage) in the About section of the repository. When I go to "Edit repository details", the Github page already shows up in the "Website" field and cannot be changed (which is fine) but it is not displayed in the About section. I've tried this with multiple repositories with associated Github pages, and all show the same behavior. Am I overlooking something blatantly obvious, or is it just not possible to include the URL here?
I tried for a week to link my GitHub Page to my GitHub repository. I just figured out how to do it and then found this post. I thought I would go ahead and post my answer. Doing so might be helpful by making this question more visible in future internet search results.
Click on the gear icon in the upper-right of your GitHub repository to the right of the word "About" (shown in the red circle below):
Paste the URL of your GitHub Page into the Website bar in the window that pops up. This Website bar will already contain text that is grayed-out and might match the URL of your actual GitHub Page. That grayed-out text is inactive. Go ahead and paste in the URL of your GitHub Page anyway. Then click Save changes. You are done. Your GitHub Page should now be linked to your GitHub repository.
I created a page for a github repository following these instructions:Getting Started with GitHub Pages. Worked perfectly, the page is already hosted.
But I would like to change the page URL, This is the currently URL: http://myusername.github.io/repositoryName/
Is there any way to remove the repository name? (http://myusername.github.io/)
I've seen the articles to configure a custom domain, but I think that's not the case.
To remove the repository name, you'll need to make it a User Page (or an Organization page). Create a repository named myusername.github.io, and commit your content to the master branch. See this help page for more information.
I am trying to host a web page from github. Namely, I am trying to do that with the page: https://github.com/oobarbazanoo/JS-BuyList.
I type to the address bar oobarbazanoo.github.io/JS-BuyList and nothing happens I just get an error.
What am I doing wrong?
In order to solve the problem follow these steps:
Go to you Repository.
At the top choose Settings.
Go to the GitHub Pages.
Choose the source you need and save it.
Wait a few minutes, then copy and paste web link which will be given in GitHub Pages section.
I created a subbranch for gh-pages. I don't know why the page isn't getting created. I'm attaching the screen shot of the bash.
Even at the github page, when I hover over the tick mark, it says that github has successfully created the page.
Link to my github
To make a github pages site, you must follow the naming convention for your repository; in your case puneeth8994.github.io.
Also, the main html file should be called index.html.
The following is a great resource to get started on github pages:
