Hi! I'm trying to change some content on my page and noticed that the _layouts/ folder is gone. I must have done something wrong somewhere and I'm wondering how to rectify this. I also notice I now have a _site folder which I don't think I had earlier in working on the site.

Can anyone offer some guidance or point me in the right direction? I'm feeling a little confused. thanks!

If helpful, the relevant repository is here: https://github.com/erindarrow/erindarrow.github.io
using a remote theme from: https://github.com/daviddarnes/alembic

Where do you expect the _layouts/ folder to be? Looking at the history of your repository the _site/ folder is there from the oldest commit, and there's no _layout/.

Yes, I saw that too when I looked through it... I expected it to be in the main repository.

I think I may be getting confused with another theme I had tried using previously. For that one, I forked the repo and made changes and there was a _layout folder whereas it seems with using the remote theme, the _layouts doesn't "live" (for lack of better word) in my repository. Does that sound accurate or am I way off about this?

That seems about right, you can see the theme being downloaded in the build log: https://github.com/erindarrow/erindarrow.github.io/actions/runs/4152603752/jobs/7183676352#step:4:48
