GitHub Pages Publish Troubleshooting ​

Use this page when the Cloud pane publish flow does not complete the way you expect.

Publish Button Stays Disabled ​

Check these first:

  • the project has a title
  • the repository name field is filled in
  • you are signed in
  • GitHub is connected

If the publish target preview is missing, correct the repository field before trying again.

GitHub Is Not Connected ​

If the Cloud pane asks you to connect GitHub, complete that step before attempting Pages publish. The publish flow depends on GitHub access and repository permissions.

GitHub Pages Permission Errors ​

If PhaserForge reports that GitHub denied Pages management access:

  • verify that you connected the correct GitHub account
  • reconnect GitHub if permissions may have changed
  • check whether the target repository is owned by a different account or organization

Repository Already Exists ​

This is not always an error. Read the precheck result carefully:

  • if you intend to update that repository, confirm the publish
  • if you do not intend to update it, stop and change the repository name

GitHub Site Returns 404 ​

Possible causes:

  • the deployment has not finished yet
  • GitHub Pages is still being configured on first publish
  • the publish targeted a different repository than you expected

Wait briefly, refresh, and compare the Cloud pane target URL with the repository you actually published.

Local Project Looks Right but Published Site Does Not ​

Check these:

  • verify you saved the latest project state before publishing
  • rerun publish after confirming the project title and repository name
  • open the local project again and confirm the expected scene content is still there
