@cobbie Have you set the right branch in your config?
Yup, branch is set correct. Such as the ff right?
backend:
name: git-gateway
branch: master
Looks reasonable to me. This of course could only work if we are hosting the site live - to use our hosted git-gateway as the backend.
I could create a new post, a new page using Netlify CMS before but today I get the following error message:
API_ERROR: tree.path contains a malformed path component
Here is my config.yml file

Hiya,
It’s worth mentioning that Netlify CMS is now managed by DeCap CMS. I’d encourage you to reach out to them for assistance. i’ll of course leave this thread open as we still have some CMS experts who will be happy to chime in.
