Staticman: Could not find a GitHub account matching staticmanapp

[PaulieScanlon]

Hey, i was attempting to get started with Staticman but have stumbled at the first hurdle.

The docs: https://staticman.net/docs/ say to add staticmanapp as a collaborator. But when i search for staticmanapp i see;

Could not find a GitHub account matching staticmanapp

There is a user called staticmanlab, is this the correct user?

If so i'm happy to update the docs if you can point me in the direction of the file/files that need updating.

Thanks.

Having the same problem as Paulie!

Sorry for the confusion. The docs hosted on that domain are from this GitHub Pages repository. I recently took on maintaining some of this project and haven't yet had the time to fix the documentation there. You're definitely welcome to submit a PR there in the meantime once you go through the bellow processes.

That documentation is from when we used to offer a public instance, but the traffic it received was overwhelming the usage limit of the platform it's hosted on. We now suggest that users deploy their own instance to a free Heroku instance. I've attempted to streamline that process as much as possible. The README offers some guidance on doing this.

This useful link from the bottom of the README specifically offers some more up to date and detailed instructions on how to set the whole thing up.

Having same issue as well. I'll try and follow your linked guide on the private instances.
