I the course of building and deploying this site one particular site has been truly helpful, Stack Overflow. Today I was finally able to give back and answer a fairly simple question that had me perplex when I first encountered it, Jekyll on Heroku listing additional (internal?) posts I haven’t created.

The probelm: Jekyll on heroku publishes mysterious pages, and they all relate to your project someway, somehow.

The solution: Let’s call the directory where Jekyll is installed & running from the root /. Heroku installs the applications gems in /vendor. When Jekyll builds the site it scans all files and folder in the root file directory, including /vendor. Fix is to simple edit _config.yml and put vendor in the exclude array.
