Hi @BOUGHANMIChaima,

Thanks for reaching out and welcome to Netlify’s Support Forums!

Looks like the error is here:

ERROR Could not find an author page at /authors/admin. Please check the value of author in your About widget and create an associated author page if one does not already exist. See https://wowchemy.com/docs/page-builder/#about

Does that page exist within your repo?

I did find a post here that references that error that may help you narrow down the cause.

Hello, thank you for your reply.
But the link you mentioned doesn’t work. And I’ve checked in the authors folder, there is a well-filled admin file /authors/admin .
I don’t understand the problem.
Help please !!!

@BOUGHANMIChaima, that’s as far as we can advise here with the provided details. This is clearly a problem with your repo and/or the theme. You should either reach out to:

  1. Hugo’s forums
  2. The theme’s developers
