I'm using mobile and the adding website flow is smooth and concise. I connected my blog hosted on GitHub. The only caveat is that this requires permission to access everything on your GitHub account, public and private repositories, and permission to do anything with them.

However, after adding the website repository, I'm not able to see any posts, is this only for pages? There are some UI issues with page editor on mobile that can be sorted out in beta. Nice product!

Update: I can access posts after changing the URL, but a direct link is missing in the UI.

Unfortunately GitHub doesn't give great control over permissions. The only thing we can choose from is access to all public repos, or access to all public and private repos. We can't specify that we want only the user repos and not the organization or vice versa.

I will certainly have a look at the issue you are having. Could you contact us via our support tool on the site? Or email us at support at forestry.io.
