Site Rendered Oddly on Chrome Mobile
I wish there was an easy way to get into Chrome mobile dev tools - that would make this much easier!!!

Site Rendered Oddly on Chrome Mobile
What sort of bothered me is that the entire look of the select dropdown changed (in Chrome Mobile) and the operation chosen wasn't even visible! I'll experiment with increasing it's width and failing that perhaps make a custom dropdown although this isn't a commercial app (as you can likely tell!) - just a hobby for me.
Thanks for the feedback.

vscode git problem
Thanks for the suggestions. I was able to delete the repo, then recreate it & go from there. It now works again. I was concerned that I wouldn't be able to create a new repo with the same name (username.github.io), like if you delete a google account you can never use that account again.

vscode git problem
What I mean by "copied" is that I copied the FractionCalculator folder into the github.io folder on my machine. Then with nested .git files everything went sideways! 🤔

vscode git problem
I think what happened is that I copied the FractionCalculator folder into my github.io page BUT this folder also contained a .git file. This probably screwed up everything! Now I'm looking for a way to delete my local repo, create a new one, and PULL whats on the server down to it - but I can't get it to work! Might have to delete this github account, create a new one, and start over! At least I have a backup!!!

I see an email from github showing a git log and the line:
Error: fatal: No url found for submodule path 'apps/FractionCalculator' in .gitmodules

GitHub Problems
Well I read the above articles, read numerous Stackoverflow articles, generated an SSH key and managed to add it - and still have bizarre errors.
I think this is all because I pushed a totally different temporary page to GitHub 8 months ago and THEN did the politically correct adventure of changing my primary branch from master to main. I tried!!!
I appreciate the help but this is just a hobby for me, time for a new account...

I'll check all this out when I get home! I've never used ssh, but hadn't done anything with this page for over 6 months - did GitHub stop allowing https pushes since then?

GitHub Problems
Thanks for the reply.
When I run
git config -l I do get my info which includes init.defaultbranch=main.
When I ran git remote add origin user.github.io nothing is displayed.
When I ran git push -u origin main the result was this:
fatal: 'user.github.io' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
Could it be time to just nuke the account & start over, or is there a simple way forward?
Thanks.12 replies
