What changes are you suggesting?

I tried to follow the guide step by step, so I chose a github pages deploy branch, it worked perfectly. The site was up and working as expected.
When I tried to install a theme through adding _config.yml file and typed theme: slate I received the error:
github-pages 228 | Error: The slate theme could not be found.
Well, that's not right, so I tried to set up the source for pages from `GitHub Actions'.
Again, received same error:

Configuration file: /github/workspace/./_config.yml
             Theme: slate
github-pages 228 | Error:  The slate theme could not be found.

Since I obviously couldn't do what I wanted, I think you should update this page.

@DRMPN Thanks for opening an issue! After checking in with the team, it looks like the docs could use an update. Try using theme: jekyll-theme-slate instead of theme: slate.

We can update the docs in step 5 of Adding a theme to say theme: jekyll-theme-THEME-NAME.

The same applies to end of that first bullet point, too. Replace theme: minima with theme: jekyll-theme-minima

You or anyone else are welcome to submit a PR with this change 💖

It worked!
Thank you ❤

I must notify you, that theme: jekyll-theme-minima does not work.
It results in the error:
github-pages 228 | Error: The jekyll-theme-minima theme could not be found. You can check it here
However, after changing the line to theme: minima, the build is successful.

Edit: tested all other themes, and this is the only one that works like this. Logs here.

@DRMPN That's interesting 🤔

So all the themes were successful using theme: jekyll-theme-THEME except for minima that only works with theme: minim. Is am I understanding that correctly? I wonder if it was a bug. Is it still behaving that way or has it been fixed?

@cmwilson21 I have just tried out the following combinations in my config.yml:

• theme: jekyll-theme-minima
• theme: minima
• theme: minim

All the runs have failed:

So I'm guessing that the problem only applies to this particular theme.
We may need to do some work on this page as well as the next.

[cmwilson21]

This is starting to sound like a potential bug with Jekyll, then. Would you agree? We can update the docs to reflect the syntax around the themes but I hesitate to make an extra exception for the minima theme. I'll dig around and ask my team, as well.

[DRMPN]

Yes, I agree with you 👍
I would just like to add that this error may only be related to the Minima theme.
