• [ ] I was trying to install.
• [ ] There is a broken Plugin API.
• [ ] I had an error on GitHub Pages, and I have reproduced it locally.
• [ ] I had an error on GitHub Pages, and GitHub Support said it was a Jekyll Bug.
• [x] I had an error on GitHub Pages and I did not test it locally.

My Reproduction Steps

After creating a gh page, the page title is retrieved from the first ## (h2), after the # (h1) in readme.md file. It should be the first # (h1).
Also, editing the _config.yml, adding title, page.title, site.title, it doesn't change the page title, allways revert to the ## (h2).

@MiguelPynto I made a quick test on a new repo https://dirtyf.github.io/pages/ and the h1 in the README is well set with the Cayman theme. Anyway this is not a Jekyll bug, but more related to one of the new GitHub Pages Jekyll plugins, I suggest you contact their support or open an issue.
