Publishing Github Pages After Making Private Repo Public
Publishing Github Pages After Making Private Repo Public
Publishing Github Pages from private repositories is a Github Pro feature at the time of writing this blog post. See billing. If you turn the repository private, your Github Pages site/blog will not be accessible if you are using GitHub Free.
However, once you set your repo private, if you set it back to public, your Github Pages site/blog will not be published automatically. To publish your site/blog again, follow these steps:
- Make the repository public again in the settings.
- Push a new commit. A new commit should be pushed before your site will be built and served again.
- Grab a coffee and wait while your site finishes building and is propagated across GitHub’s CDN. In my case, the site was back up and running within a minute. GitHub CSE told me it may take 10-20 minutes sometimes.
- Access your GitHub Pages site/blog.
If this doesn’t work, contact GitHub Support.
