  This is in the `_posts` directory.
  It can be edited then rebuild the site to see the changes.
  You can rebuild the site in many different ways, but the most common way is to run `jekyll serve`, which launches a web server and auto-regenerates your site when a file is updated.

  <p>I feel very silly asking this question as it is so basic but I can not find any answers to my question</p>
  
  <p>Is it possibly a configuration error on my own system. I am using apache2, ruby gems, etc</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance</p>
