hot reload in jekyll not working


I've installed jekyll 3.1.6 on Mint 17 (ubuntu 14.4) with ruby 2.2 + python 2.7 My browsers are Chromium and Firefox

I think I've tried every trick I can find on the internet, but it still won't auto-reload, even though the terminal does say that auto-regeneration has been enabled and with each file content change and save, the terminal logs the change and tells me it's been done. But I'm still forced to refresh a page manually to see the changes.

Open to any and all suggestions.


Solution

  • Jekyll auto-generation future(Using jekyll server) automatically change/modify the files on _site folder only, it does not refresh browser windows automatically, you have to use grunt for that. There are already many of NPM packages and Repo for that.
