    @sebawrite Thank you for reporting this issue with an attached demonstration.
    However, we still don't have sufficient information to debug your issue.

    If you check the Console tab in the browser's inspect frame (Right-click on the browser's main window to see options), you'd see additional information.
    Try serving the site with the --trace switch. Then if you check the terminal window after the error flashes, you may also see some additional info there:

    bundle exec jekyll serve --trace

    @ashmaroli I've ran it with --trace and also checked the console and network tabs, no error are displayed whatsoever.

    I've tried running it on docker and also installed ruby 2.7.5 and 3.1.1 locally to check if it had something to do with ruby version. None of my attempts were successful.

    You can use my repo to run it using docker and replicate the issue.

    @ashmaroli Hi! I have the same problem. I'm running the app on docker. --trace shows me nothing, there's also nothing special in the browser console.

    Error appears when I access or refresh "Posts" or "Pages" pages. If I switch between the two by clicking on the links in sidebar, the error doesn't occur. But each time it occurs, following line appears in my terminal (which runs jekyll serve --watch --draft --trace): jekyll-jekyll-1 | Configuration file: /srv/jekyll/_config.yml

    It's funny because there doesn't seem to be anything wrong (so far, but I haven't written any posts from the admin yet), it's just that this notification is annoying.

    Could you please help me in finding where it could come from?

    try your _config.yml

    - datafiles
    - configuration
  homepage: "posts"

    @y377 what did you mean there? I have the same problem. No errors from browser console or trace option @ashmaroli

    This is optional, and not the reason for this. Sweeping under the rug at best.

    I have had the same error, as well as a couple of others when trying to use jekyll-admin. Below you can see my bundle install of everything I am using in my site, as well as a trace of everything that happened when I was navigating the jekyll-admin site. In particular, I went to the main page of jekyll-admin, and received:

    Going to the Data Files menu option gives me this error:

    SOLUTION: The error shows up because there are no files to find. Once I created a new post, and added a data file, I no longer got either error.

    I’ll follow up on this question later, as I’m currently busy with other things. The author is no longer updating. Guys, we can only rely on ourselves.

    try your _config.yml

    jekyll_admin:
  hidden_links:
    - pages
    - staticfiles
    - datafiles
    - configuration
  homepage: "posts"
    • [need repair ]
    • [don't repair ]

    It worked! Thank you!

    This worked nice 🥳

    I'm still running into the

    Error: Could not fetch the config

    problem, and unfortunately

    try your _config.yml

    jekyll_admin:
  hidden_links:
    - pages
    - staticfiles
    - datafiles
    - configuration
  homepage: "posts"
    * [need repair ]

* [don't repair ]

    didn't help solve it. Has anyone else found a better workaround or a solution yet?

    This gemfile (snippet) works for me:

    gem 'sinatra-contrib', '~> 2.0'
gem 'rack-protection', '~> 2.0'

group :jekyll_plugins do
  gem 'jekyll-admin'
end

    using jekyll 4.3.3 and jekyll-admin 0.11.1

    I believe this is because of this destructuring in App.js. It gets compiled to:

    var t = this.props,
a = t.config.content,
n = a.jekyll_admin.homepage,
r = a.collections,
i = t.router,
c = i.getCurrentLocation().pathname;

    So if you don't have jekyll_admin.homepage configured in your _config.yml file, this will fail. IIUC, Jekyll Admin will also only read _config.yml and not other config files provided with --config (as per this PR) so if (like me) you have the jekyll_admin block in a different file, it'll still fail.

    It would be nice to include the actual error message in the failure notification which would make reported failures clearer.
