closes #32

This is not a supported plugin for github pages: https://pages.github.com/versions.json

Hm... We can solve that by updating our GitHub pages build configuration to use GitHub actions rather than the legacy system.

Can you provide an example of how this is done?

https://github.com/actions/upload-pages-artifact

This would be resolved as a part of #230

@onerandomusername Can you give me an update on this? The simplest solution would be if the plugin was now supported. Otherwise, we need to update the action(s) that compile the site?

correct. because the plugin isn't supported, we can build the site ourself in a workflow. https://docs.github.com/en/pages/getting-started-with-github-pages/configuring-a-publishing-source-for-your-github-pages-site#publishing-with-a-custom-github-actions-workflow

this has the added advantage that we control the entire environment from start to finish, and can make it match what we have on our developer machines, rather than the black box that is the gh pages in-built building.

Would you like to create a new issue to create the workflow for publishing the site using Actions, and then we will be able to proceed here?
