# WP2Static / GeneratePress / Github damaging layout

 * [6 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp2static-generatepress-github-damaging-layout/)
 * I am testing using WP2S with the goal of managing a small, business brochure 
   website on my laptop, then using WP2Static to generate static pages to host at
   a provider like github.
 * I agree with you that the vast mjority of sites managed on WP should actually
   be static.
 * Maybe WP should buy your company.
 * In the meantime, I would like to use the theme GeneratePress, which I have used
   successfully on hosted, dynamic WP.
 * The page in the link above shows the results as hosted as static content.
 * Here is a link to a shot of the index page as on my localhost, viewed through
   WordPress:

 * I don’t know of anything in GeneratePress that would require dynamic behavior.
   Is there some file or set of files that I should instruct WP2S to include?
 * Thanks!

   to see the link]_

 * Hi Frans,
 * I have cleared the deploy cache, slightly modified text on the website, re-staticized,
   and re-pushed to github.
 * I looked into the source code, and see references to GeneratePress as the theme.
 * The appearence of the site (at soft-copy.github.io) is still odd. The appearance
   on localhost (screenshot at [https://github.com/soft-copy/imgs/blob/master/Screenshot%20from%202019-10-03%2014-08-59.png](https://github.com/soft-copy/imgs/blob/master/Screenshot%20from%202019-10-03%2014-08-59.png))
   looks proper.
 * What logs can I retrieve and send?
 * Thanks!

 * Hi Frans,
 * I posted on the GeneratePress theme support forum as well.
 * Response below. Somehow a css file is being missed in the staticization process.
 * That support forum post is at:

 * Hi Jud,
 * I’m not familiar with the plugin, but one issue I’m seeing right away is the 
   style.min.css file is a 404: [https://your-website.github.io/wp-content/themes/generatepress/style.min.css](https://your-website.github.io/wp-content/themes/generatepress/style.min.css)
 * That file is necessary for most of the structure on the site.

 * I found that, for some reason, my git push routine missed adding a directory.
 * I have changed my routine.
 * Resolved.
 * Thank you for your attention to this point.
